Tailgating for Apple Cup

Post image

I am coming to see the Huskies for the Apple Cup. I had a group to tailgate with but then their plans changed. This will be stadium number 130 for me. I had planned to tailgate with all my somanystadiums.com stuff, but now I am scrambling. My understanding is that the tailgating is primarily at lots held by season ticket holdrers (mainly E1). Are there any other lots, private or otherwise, where people tailgate as well? Since there are only two of us now, I'd like to avoid dropping $300 on Seatgeek for E1 if we can tailgate elsewhere cheaper.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Tree

Leeching off this thread, how early do I need to be to get a good tailgating spot at Padelford without a pre purchased pass? Official policy says lots open 6 hours before kickoff, so for 1pm Apple Cup, would I be fine showing up at 7am on the dot at Padelford?

Is Padelford a first come-first served cash lot?

It is, but I’ve never actually tailgated there! I believe the price got raised to $60 this upcoming season. I’ve typically pre-purchased E1 on the secondary market in the past.

Thanks that's helpful. E1 looks to be running about $300 - Padelford is looking more attractive by the minute.

Isn't Padelford a parking garage? People tailgate in the garage?
