This week, the shuttle will begin operation five (5) hours prior to kick-off (8:30 am) until 30 minutes +/- after kick-off. This is an hour earlier than normal. The return shuttle will run continuously until 60 minutes after the game. Parking at Parsons is free (Parsons parking lot only) Riders of the shuttle will pay $2 per person, round trip to ride the shuttle.

Do you know when Lot H opens?
I called UCLA (CTO) and they said that all the reserve lots will also open at 7am.
Just spoke with someone at CTO and she said lot H would open at 6 am. I asked why it wasn't opening 10 hours before kick-off like usual, and she said it was because the lot has already been sold out (I guess the thought is that those with passes have no need to get there that early since they are guaranteed a spot). Whether lot H opens at 6 or 7, I expect the line to start building at 1 or 2 am and be enormous by opening time.
Say it ain't so, Joe!
Brian, is this true? Can you check this out? Is Lot H really going to open only at 6 a.m. for this game? It will be chaos. Those of us that bought Lot H tickets did so with the intent to tailgate early. Guaranteed that the SUC fans will arrive early and try to poach some ground on Lot H before the "Event Staff" arrives. IS UCLA GAME DAY OPERATIONS NUTS??????
LOT H SHOULD OPEN 10 HOURS BEFORE KICK-OFF LIKE EVERY OTHER GAME! ARE YOU LISTENING ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT?
Hey, Dan, I have a great idea! Why don't you up the donation levels to the Wooden Athletic Fund, then double the season ticket prices, then double the parking prices, then, let's see, $12 Hot Dogs, and anything else you can think of to destroy the fan experience. After all, we enjoy spending thousands upon thousands of dollars, year in and year out, to see the product you have put on the field!
WHAT THE HELL!!! The lot opens at 7:00am?????!!!!! What happened to 10 hours before gametimes? WTF!!!
I swear, I AM SO SICK OF OUR FREAKING ADMINISTRATION! HORRIBLE!
Brian!!! Please tell us that Lot H opens earlier!
Dan Guerrero: "We rip off our fans, put a crappy team on the field, destroy any and all tradition we have, buy premature and embarrassing ads, invite other team's fans to our games, sell 25,000 tickets to USC, and we are still rich! Here's my middle finger pointed right at all you Bruin fans! Bruhahahahahahaha!!!!"
The CTO was wrong. Lot H opens 10 hours before... at 3:30 a.m... as usual.
