RV parking at Ohio Stadium: questions
Where do RVs park for Ohio State home games?
In the Gray Lots and Buckeye Lots near the Schottenstein Center, reached from Ackerman Road or Lane Avenue by way of Fred Taylor Drive; a vehicle too big for a standard space is asked to buy an RV pass or park on West Campus. ohiostatebuckeyes.com
How do you buy an RV permit?
RV parking is sold mostly as season permits; a very limited number of single-game pre-sale permits for the RV Lot go on sale through the athletics department's Ticketmaster link, and once they are gone only day-of-game sales remain. ohiostatebuckeyes.com
How much room does a permit cover?
About 40 by 60 feet, and the RV, the tailgate gear and any tow or towed vehicle all have to fit inside it. The permit allows one entrance, so the rig and its car arrive together. ohiostatebuckeyes.com
When must RVs leave?
By 10 a.m. on the Sunday after the game. ohiostatebuckeyes.com
What are the grill and power rules?
Charcoal, wood grills and fire pits are not allowed anywhere on campus; propane grills are, placed on level ground at least 10 feet from structures with an extinguisher at hand, and plugging into university or CampusParc outlets is prohibited. osu.campusparc.com
How do you drive into the RV lot?
