I've always done tailgating for noon games, but we have tickets for Sunday night's game.  What time should we arrive in order to get a spot in the 31st Street lot?  I live several hours away and need to plan accordingly.  Thanks!

We still set-up at 6am, and spend the day relaxing and enjoying the nice weather. The lot usually starts filling around 12 noon as folks start watching the 1st game, and by 3pm it should be full. Come early and avoid all the traffic & hassles!

I thought I would update my post just in case someone comes here looking for the same thing.  We got to 31st Street around 1:30.  Once through the pay gates, the right side was pretty much full.  We could've found a spot, but with so many people already bagging, etc. I didn't want to bother them.  To the left, there were plenty of spots.  However, there are many semi truck trailers just randomly parked which take up a lot of spots.  By 3:00 there were no spots left.
