Parking is $40 at Foxborough these days?!? - New England Patriots Forums

Seriously? They charge *FORTY* dollars to park a car in the middle of nowhere, where there is absolutely no lack of land?

Are you KIDDING me?

How on earth has this gone on without RIOTS? Isn't anyone else completely outraged?

Yay, something to ***** about besides the pats themselves. Parking is ridiculous, what can you do...
?

you can park where ever you like, no one is forcing you to park at the stadium. paying that much to park is a bit annoying but people are free to voice their displeasure with their wallets by not going to the games. so far that has not been the case.

Actually, I think some lots charge $50.

When I went to my one and only Patriots game back in 2003 I was absolutely stunned to hand over $40 to park. I pay less for my NFL Season Ticket than I would just for parking at 8 home games. While NFL teams have the right to charge what they want - shame on them.

If you have four people going to the game, that's only $10 a person. That's not that bad.

Heck, even if you go with one other person, it's $20. Should you really go to a pro-football game expecting to spend <$40 (minus tickets)?

It's been that way for years. Some lots charge $50. Someone needs to set up a satellite shuttle lot at $15 a head to bus people in and out.

Someone has to pay for the 30 empty stores at Patriots Place....

I agree it is outrageous. It goes along with high ticket prices and

expensive beer and food inside the stadium. Despite these prices,

I give Bob Kraft credit for building the stadium on his own and not

charging season ticket holders for seat licenses.
