Parking At A Glance

Parking difficulty

Parking options (opens in a new tab)

Basketball parking and current limited-mobility arrangements need separate confirmation.

What to do
Use the Stroh-specific Alumni Drive approach, current event signage and the assigned or paid parking area. The February 2026 notice describes additional limited-mobility spaces in the first three north-side rows of Lot 24 and says those spaces remain paid parking.
Best option
Contact BGSU before the actual game to confirm limited-mobility parking, Student Entrance/service-elevator operation, the appropriate permit and accessible seat. The old seating chart does not establish a step-free route or reserve a parking space.
Avoid
Do not treat limited-mobility parking as automatically free, use the football parking map for a Stroh basketball visit, rely on old season prices or assume the older purse policy overrides the clear-bag mandate.
