Little Parking help from wild fans

I'm sure it's been discussed before...but here goes.

It's a rather blustery night in Minnesota tonight. What is the best parking lot, or parking option with regards to a wild game.

What lot do you guys prefer, how much is it....etc....

Also does anyone do the park and ride at a bar or something like that....let me know

I'm going tonight, and just weighing options.

Here's our general guide for visitors. Scroll down to "Getting There" for info about parking and whatnot. If that doesn't answer it, lemme know.

Skyways are a godsend in the winter. Plus many bars in the area offer a free ride to wild games with proof of a ticket

I always park in the River Center lot mainly because it's right there and it's the easiest for me to get in and out from there. It's generally the most expensive, both I go with it after weighing the ease of use compared to others. It's especially perfect if you live South of the X.

Smith Parking Ramp always. Its basically across the street and the quickest/easiest way to get onto I-94 or I-35E. $15 before the game.

I just park on an off-street down 7th. Yes, its six plus blocks of a walk in the snow most of the time, but it's free and actually really fun when it's snowing and the dt lights of St. Paul look awesome.

We've had season tix since day 1 and only used the Lawson Commons for 3-4 years. It got too expensive (20+ games a year) and hard to pass over to people buying our tickets.

So, doing this the last few years is great. And, be able to catch a drink on the way there or back at Tom Reid's is totally worth it...

Usually either River Center or the ramp across from the X. I'm lazy and only go a half dozen times a year.

I'm lazy.

It all depends on where we're sitting and which gate the ticket says to go in...

I always park in the Crowne Plaza parking lot when I can. Little bit of a walk but it's a nice heated parking lot and you don't have to worry about things getting stolen. If the Crowne Plaza parking is closed I'll usually park right in the bank parking lot right behind it.
