    So the cheapest tailgate is the " varsity package". a 6' table and 6 chairs
    yet the verbiage says can comfortably accommodate 10 to 20 guests.
    what? do you take turns sitting in the 6 chairs? 20 people in that 10'x10' with 6 chairs and a 6' table is gonna be pretty crowded.
    Ah so you just go to the "varsity + package"
    looks just like the varsity package EXCEPT magically the same space NOW has 10 chairs, don't believe me? count the chairs in the pic.

    BTW where will the people who usually park at Disch-Falk park? is this a one time thing and there will be parking there for other games?

    This paragraph from Steve Patterson's post has a few references to parking. We may not know much more until game days get closer.

    This week, we started a new feature on TexasSports.com: This Week in Texas Athletics. Check this page each week for updates on home events, parking, ticket information, special presentations and more. Be sure to check TexasSports.com and @TexasSports on Twitter leading up to and on gameday for important updates, including traffic and parking information. You can follow #GetHere4Gameday, parking or traffic on Twitter for everything you need to know related to gameday. You can also download The University of Texas iPhone app, which will display all parking and traffic related tweets from Texas accounts. We recognize that construction around our campus will make some ingress and egress more challenging than in the past. We hope you use these tools to help alleviate some of the challenges. If you decide to come early, please join the pregame festivities at Fan Fest.
