Saw the same increase here, too - last minute changes? I was a little surprised at where we fell in gold (this is our first year in gold, higher than I expected in the pecking order.) We've been cardinal since '05 or '06, whenever we got the first "you'll lose your parking if you don't give more" letter - probably '06, as JP was just hired in '05. NCC and season FB since '03, maybe the longevity is finally paying off?

Same here. 1st time in gold and I'm pretty much in the same percentile as I was in Cardinal.

I just pulled this today. I'm guessing I'm on the edge for retaining my C4 parking pass?

Your rank is 396 of 1340 for all Cardinal Members

Been a season ticket holder for 22 years, and haven't missed one home game, including Drake. Should count for something. :)

I think there was roughly a 130 person increase into Gold this year, it'll be close but you still should get a paved spot I'd think.

I made the jump because I didn't want to get stuck in G7 again this year (had G6 prior). Of course I made the jump and now I have 2 friends that started donating to get into G7. Which means I may be trading a paved spot for a G7 pass....

I didn't check where we were in cardinal before upping our donation, but know that there were exactly 4 spots left in C4 when I picked parking last year. I believe we were not far behind you - 16 yrs FB season ticket holders (for '18, that is; 17 now.) We had to give prorated donations to get a 5th/6th seat for the last 8-9 years, so that impacted our priority points some, too.

Stuck in G7? Man, I love G7. I actually enjoyed the makeshift G7 in Vet Med a lot more than I thought I would.

Yeah, it wasn’t all bad. I really liked G6 though. Always easy to get in and out, plus really close. I won’t mind be back in there, I just didn’t like it being closed all the time.

G6 is terrible. No one should park there. ;)

I'm hoping the extra paved Cardinal parking around Hilton will let our tailgating group keep 3 G6 spots for another year. We've parked there for ~5 years now, and the lowest point member of our group almost got bumped last year.

I’d say the top levels start picking middle of April
Agree. An email will be coming soon with a date that the process of selection begins for each priority points level. Selection usually progresses from Mid-April to Mid May. The email will tell you your date and time of the opening of your selection window.

Rank in Donor Level Your rank is 878 of 1340 for all Cardinal Members

Just checked mine now. Anyone know my chances of getting on paved parking? (assuming not good despite being a season ticket holder since 2006) cyclone club guy on phone said bowl ticket purchases through ISU also add points. I bought thru them for 2009 Insight, 2012 Liberty, 2017 Liberty, 2018 Alamo.

Might be tough. You are in upper 50 percent so you may qualify for those paved spots north of Hilton. Since everything is first come first served, availability depends on where some folks want to be. I like the grass because there is more tailgating space there in my opinion, so I select that even though I "qualify" for paved parking. Also, some folks select spots due to where they know their friends will be.

I would imagine you'll at least get into the last row of the main paved lots. I'm Cardinal 619 and I easily got into C3 last year. Although, it could be close as it looks like the number of gold members went up a bit and they'll have priority.

Just checked the account and I have the parking pass icon available. It does give a date and time, but haven't got the official email yet from the Cyclone Club

Long time season ticket holder, still parking (sometimes illegally) just west of the stadium in colonial village area. Parking tickets are cheaper than parking passes. Get a cooler on wheels and hang out with friends who have a parking spot. See you all in B4 this fall!
