There actually is a lot of parking on the opposite side of the gym in the far parking lot....I don't think the LIT was anywhere near capacity because of the location. Not sure what the turnout will be for Regionals though, could be a lot worse. Keep in mind that Bullitt East didn't participate in the LIT and they tend to bring a lot of fans themselves.

I do not understand why Parking continues to be a focus for so many people. Louisville Gardens wasn't the best for parking because you had to PAY to park anywhere close to the arena or park for free on a sidestreet and walk a ways. Did anyone ever try to find a spot to park at Bellarmine while classes were going on? Most of the time you would have to park in the back parking lot at Bellarmine which is a nice walk to the front of the gym. I agree that Valley does not have adequate parking for near capacity crowds but every venue has had it's issues. Get there early and parking won't be an issue, roll in at the last minute then you're going to have to walk a bit. Sorry to vent but the focus should be on supporting your kids/teams.
