I can't believe I'm the first to make this thread
Maybe I'm just the first to actually make it home...

its been my experience that the farther away you park from carter-finely
the longer you wait

^^ you can definitely do that, hang the right on hillsborough where the fuzz is directing traffic and then hang a u-turn to head back towards, well, wolf village in my case
we just park right near the exit to trinity in the carter-finley lot, would rather walk afterwards than sit in line 2/1/2006 10:24:01 PM |

I think a handful got out early, but for the 40 minutes I was in the lot, literally no one left the lot. 2/1/2006 10:29:13 PM |

the problem was that they would let our lane go to blue ridge on trinity. They were making everyone turn right at the football center, and that whole road was back up. I got out quick, but i knew that was going to be a bad thing 2/1/2006 10:45:52 PM |

traffic was horrible
what pisses me off is that the faggot cops re-route traffic differently for EVERY SINGLE GAME. First, I want to turn LEFT out of the Gate C lot. Okay, that was fine tonight. But wait, I WANT TO GO STRAIGHT UP TRINITIY DOUCHEBAGS. They made us turn all down this street taking me way way away from campus. I followed about 15 cars halfway to Cary & back around to get home
faggot cops 2/1/2006 11:29:36 PM |

no, thats what happens when we let the RPD direct traffic. Those people are morons. Most of the people couldnt even understand what they were trying to signal with their damn hand signals, not to mention they park their cars in the stupidest spots.2/1/2006 11:44:43 PM |

i got yelled at by a traffic cop once because apparently him moving his arm back and forth toward me meant "don't go" 2/1/2006 11:46:00 PM |

yeah the cops after the game directing traffic are SUPER TOUCHY 2/1/2006 11:47:27 PM |

Traffic to the game tonight was also bad.[/b] 2/2/2006 12:12:06 AM |

^^^ haha yea he yelled at the guy next to me cause he was moving his arms from side to side and that meant for them to turn left 2/2/2006 12:13:33 AM |
joepeshi All American 8094 Posts user info edit post |
^^^^^but they direct traffic every game 2/2/2006 12:26:34 AM |
pbomb All American 660 Posts user info edit post |
yea but this game was exceptionally worse, for instance the student lot normally has to go right while the alumni go left out of the carter-finely lot whereas today they had us going left or right and put a damn cop car in one of the lanes on the right. the student lot moved 10 times slower tonight than at most games 2/2/2006 12:30:54 AM |
CharlieEFH All American 21806 Posts user info edit post |
there is no "normal" traffic route leaving the stadium 2/2/2006 12:32:36 AM |
pbomb All American 660 Posts user info edit post |
thats true but there was a pattern for a least a few games, and they fucked it up tonight 2/2/2006 12:35:38 AM |
jtmartin All American 4116 Posts user info edit post |
the student lot did take longer tonight. I parked maybe 5 cars down from the exit but my side like never got to go.
I dont see why they dont add another exit to that lot on the other side because funnelling that many cars through one exit takes WAY too long
sometimes i think it'd be easiest to just ride a bike from campus to the game and ride it back... it would take the same amount of time 2/2/2006 1:07:21 AM |

i'm definitely glad we decided to walk from trinity commons ... thought about driving to the student lot but i guess we made the right decision 2/2/2006 10:13:47 AM |

I stayed the whole game and was out of the student lot in about 3 minutes.
However, it was not easy getting back to campus after that. 2/2/2006 1:45:38 PM |

The traffic GETTINg to the game was horrible.
I got onto the on ram for 40 and saw it backed up...so i poped the median and jumped on the exit ramp and went down chapel hill road.
used the same path to exit the place...hardly any traffic at all. 2/2/2006 1:48:08 PM |
