SAN ANTONIO — UTSA has announced a new student tailgating plan for all home football games at the Alamodome, beginning with the Saturday, Sept. 3, season opener against Alabama State.



Earlier this year, members of the athletics department teamed up with UTSA Student Activities representatives to discuss plans for new student tailgating options at football games. The two groups met with presidents and members of numerous student organizations, including Roadrunner Productions, Fraternity and Sorority Life, Rowdy Crew and the Student Government Association, to review ideas and devise revamped tailgating options for students.



UTSA now will offer student tailgating in Lot C located to the east of the Alamodome. Students will be able to purchase parking spaces to join UTSA season ticket holders when the lots open at 8 a.m. for tailgating prior to each home game this season. Students will be held to the same policies as season ticket holders and will be policed by the San Antonio Police Department and Alamodome security staff.



Please see the attached Alamodome map for the student tailgating area in Lot C and student entrances to the facility.



UTSA students can call the Ticket Office at (210) 458-UTSA (8872) to purchase a parking spot. All spaces will be sold for the full season only at a cost of $120 per pass. Single-game spaces for the Oct. 22 Homecoming Game against UTEP will be considered at a later date. A pass must be purchased for each parking spot that a group plans to occupy.



Additionally, UTSA Roadrunner Productions and other organizations will host a new game day tradition called Blue & Orange Madness in the area called Roadrunner Alley this year. This is open to all students and will be located in the walkway between Lots B and C on the east side of the Alamodome. The Spirit Walk will be moved from Sunset Station to Roadrunner Alley, as the team will enter from Cherry Street and walk through Roadrunner Alley to the Alamodome approximately two-and-a-half hours prior to kickoff of each home game.
