It distinguishes public parking, staff/game-official reserved spaces, no-parking areas and one-way traffic. Confirm current lot access and charges for your game; the legacy 2018–19 guide is not a current price guarantee.

Austin’s similarly named coliseum in Nacogdoches. Check the current game’s notice for entry times and bag rules; the linked legacy basketball information page still contains 2018–19 ticket details.
