Blue Cross Bowl to affect parking, traffic
We will welcome hundreds of high school students plus their families and friends again this year as we host the TSSAA Blue Cross Bowl state championship football games.
Our campus will host games on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Dec. 3 through Saturday, Dec. 5, at Tucker Stadium. Games will be held at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. each of the three days. Friday games are expected to bring the most weekday visitors to campus.
The parking lots near Tucker Stadium, Volpe Library, Bryan Fine Arts and Johnson Hall will be barricaded and reserved for championship visitors who pay to park in this area. All other parking lots will remain open for faculty, staff and students based on hangtags and will be first come, first served. This year, we anticipate ample parking availability for faculty, staff and students due to the decreased number of people travelling to campus each day.
TSSAA volunteer parking teams will be monitoring lots and collecting money from visitors paying to park in dedicated campus lots.
To see a map of reserved championship parking spaces, visit

Please park in permit areas only. Please do not park on the grass, in fire lanes or other areas not normally designated as parking. Handicap parking will still require a designated handicap tag. Do not block service or mail spots.More Information about TSSAA Event
