Not a bad idea especially for those idiots who leave crap to blow in the wind.

Yea when your already paying 20 bucks a car to get in the lot, they can afford to pay people to pick up the trash IMO. I was at the game last week and did not pay anything other than the parking fee.

This was only happening at the pit and not at the muni lot. The browns had nothing to do with this me thinks.

Just another way to help pay Holmgrens salary. Nothing more nothing less.

Why would you put a thumbs down and then put "not a bad idea"?

Error on my behalf. Although I did not realize they were already charging 20 a car.

The Texans have limited tailgating to those with game tix only. They are selling to season tix holders tailgate passes for 10 bucks a piece up to 2000 per event. Should stop the professional tailgaters who charge admission to their tailgates.

We paid 20 bucks a car for the muni lot last Sunday. Fab4 says that is up from 15 last year. So there is the 5 dollar fee.

I would never pay more than the $20/car to tailgate. It already went up $5 from previous years (in the Muni Lot).

This doesn't have anything to do with the muni lot. Some dude at the pit was just charging everyone who walked in 5 bucks. The raise in muni lot prices for cars is something separate.

Right. I am simply stating that I wouldn't pay more than $20/car to tailgate. If I tried walking into the Pit and someone did that I would turn around and go to another lot.

It’s absolutely unbelievable the greed, utter disrespect and disregard tailgaters are receiving these days. When did the memo go out telling everyone but me that tailgaters are this bottomless pit of cash? Is it our fierce loyalty to our teams that allows us to be taken advantage of this way?
