First tailgating since '06.

My last game was the playoff loss to San Diego.  I was moving and working on my house in fall of '15, and when I went to buy a playoff ticket like i did in '14 they were sold out. My dad died before the 16 season and in 17 I was dealing with a bad knee that made it VERY painful to do the walking required at a game. Since then they have been a hot mess that I have not cared to go to the cost and trouble to watch live.

But I will be there Thursday.

In 2006 I went with Joe From Florence, who was one of my main nemisis from the old board. We did some tailgating where I met BengalThing and Turk and some more I can't remember.  But every year after that I stayed with a good friend of mine in Mason until I went straight to the game. I always parked in a garage in Newport and took the shuttle to the stadium. So no tailgating since '06.

This year I will be driving straight up from Tennesse before the game. I plan on getting there way before the game.  

So any suggestions on where to hang before the game. Are the lots restricted to the people parking there?

Joe from Flo, Turk, and Bengal Thing - those are some throwbacks right there. 

I tailgate quit often for games. Lot 1 is right by the stadium and is between 2nd street and Pete Rose Way.

I know Joe Goodberry (twitter guy) is also hosting a tailgate. It would prob be a good place to go:
