Hey guys Cuse fan here...we are doing one last tailgate to USF. I have a group of 90 Cuse fans meeting for a tailgate this October. The last time I was there (2006) we had a smaller group and I arrived at the opening and parked in Lot 7 (IIRC) and late arrivers came and found me. I think I might try a non-RayJay Lot this year...any suggestions of reasonably close lots that can handle 30 or so Cuse cars of laid back tailgaters? I have a few ideas but I want to see if I'm missing any. I'll update my guide accordingly.

BTW, most of us will be from 30 to 70 years old and we love to interact with our host school's fans. Tailgating is about the food, drink and camaraderie.

Off Himes Ave is the old Mall(now a parking lot) its acrossed the street from the stadium. You wont miss the tailgaiting. Lots of room so you should have no problem. There or any of the Stadium parking lots. Also Al Lopez Park is a short walk and lots of room as well.

On the west side of campus near the botanical gardens is a great place for away fans to tailgate on game day

Are you going to be giving us rides over to the game?

Not a joke, but bring 4 $5 bills.... They never have change and it seems to change often

Not sure how much you guys want to party, but there is a private lot behind New Channel 28 on Woodlawn Avenue... there are less people in it, but this lot gets packed and is home to 3 very large USF tailgating groups. Main good thing about the private lot over the public lots is that the private lot is open all day and has no restrictions, where as the public lots have restrictions and are only open 4-5 hours before kickoff.
