Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
Just curious on the frequency of shuttle service from Holmes parking for Handicap. Does it run during the game if we have to leave before end of game?
FiL just had a major stroke a few months ago and can't walk as well as he could yet and we are trying to see if they in laws will make any games with us this year.
Thanks

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
I assisted a handicapped person with that last year helping her find the lot on Hill St. The shuttle seemed to be fairly regular in its course. One thing to note is that the special lot is now the lot up the hill on Hill St. Holmes is now a Yosef lot.
If serving is beneath you, then leading is beyond you.

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
My father uses the lot at the top of Hill St. Agree with Daphne about the regularity of the shuttle. I'd guess every 15 minutes give or take. It's definitely not bad before the game since it's pretty staggered with occupants, however, you may have to wait a while after the game unless you're one of the first in line since everyone utilizing that lot tries to board at roughly the same time.

I use it. Leaving the game at end of game can hold you back up to an hour. The shuttles do run throughout the game. It's actually a good atmosphere though you have to dodge college kids partying on the drive up that road.... older folks and gimpy veterans like myself.

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
We use it every game due to my wife's disability. Shuttles before the game are many, some times too many...no such thing. Post game can be problematic especially if you are in a hurry to get out. The shuttles cannot leave KBS until 30 mins after the game ends. I sometimes walk back to the car, good exercise at 3333 feet. My wife will take the shuttle and Ill have the car warm and ready when she gets there. All in all it is a great experience. We have passes to park elsewhere but we enjoy the HDCP lot.

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
Do you tailgate in the HDCP lot? Does it require anything to get into that lot other than a valid handicap sticker? Have an older friend that would like to come to an App game, but can't handle the walk up that hill due to a hip issue and I would love to take him to a game.

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
Thanks yall. If the kids are with us as well we would have to leave before the end of the game, but may have to slightly to get out with a shuttle.
Where does the shuttle drop off/pick up at in the stadium lot?
Thanks again.

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
Couple questions for anyone who can help. First my handicapped son loves to come to games. He really loves the pep band that travels through the stadium lot. I have a stroller/wheelchair for him. I'm assuming the bus has wheelchair access? Secondly, is there a place we can secure the stroller during the game?

Re: Anyone used Handicap parking for games?
My mother rides into the stadium in a wheelchair. She has handicap seating and we leave her chair in that area. Sometimes you can ask for bench seating in the handicap area or a bench seat/wheelchair seating next to it. If the stroller folds it should fit between you and the railing. Feel free to Private Message me with specific questions. I will gladly help if I can.
