Hi all! We're headed to Sun Life for the BCS championship game next Monday. Never been to the stadium before.

I've got an Orange Lot parking pass, but I see that qualifies for many of the lots around the stadium. I was wondering, what's the best place/area to target for parking in one of the Orange Lots? Any area better than the others?

Thanks much for the help! Go Phins!

Assuming they manage parking the same way they do for the Dolphin games, where you park will be largely driven by where you enter the stadium, which will be largely driven by where you are coming from. Where will you be coming from (N/S/E/W?)

Thanks for the reply Fineas. I'm coming from Fort Lauderdale, but frankly I'm willing to circle the stadium and enter wherever, if there's one lot that's better than the others. Just wondering if there's a choice spot that I should try for. Thanks!

Get the closest you can to the parking ticket booths, if I remember correctly.

Simple, enter on the 199th Street side, and drive into the stadium through Gate H. Park as close as possible to that Gate. They have the best public and private tailgates there, along with live bands and BS.

That moment when you realize you don't make as much money as you think you do?

I want to go to this game. Can't afford it.

Decent seats: $1,300 a pop.

Worse than that?

When you have the same reaction over $40 seats.

Rt 1 south to Florida 595 west ( this is almost same as going into airport ) 595 West to Florida Turnpike South. Take the turnpike south right to the exit for the stadium. Do not take the first exit for the stadium I believe its called exit X on game day. No toll is charged. When you go past toll booths you come to the first entrance for orange, turn right, find a place to park. When leaving do the exact opposite. Go on Turnpike North, get off at 595 East ( airport Port Everglades) then one north to wherever.

Its an easy ride and you are in and out in no time. Have a ball. The entire place is tailgate heaven IMO
