Parking for homecoming help

I usually park and walk from the sororities on Jordan, but it’s been taking me over an hour to get out of town, even though I waited an hour after game this week. I need to get back to Indy quicker after Minny so I’m going to buy a parking pass. Any suggestions of a couple of places that have been fairly decent getting in and out of?

If you can walk 25 minutes: the Henderson garage is free or just park in town for $1/hr.  Use the 3rd St. exit to and from I69.  I've found traffic is always minimal. 

If you're not setting up to tailgate and are able to walk that far, this is the way to go imo.  Basically, you're walking past all the gridlock and avoiding 45/46 to get to I69.

This is pretty good advice.

However, I’m in lot 14 which is on the east side and I never have much trouble getting out but they shuttle all the traffic east. No problem though if you just take 10th street east to New Unionville, Bethel road to Boltinghouse Rd. Then old 37 to Sample Rd to get back on I 69. It only takes an additional minute or two when there is no traffic and a lot quicker with football traffic. You can do the same from lot 12 which is also pretty easy to get out of, or from the sororities.

@zeke4ahs 4th Street Parking Garage is also an option.  It's free or, at maximum, $.50/hour.  Easy in and out, although Walnut is heavy traffic to I69, unless you take a left as mentioned by Tammany.

I was going to say the same.  I haven't parked there but some that come to the tailgate have and have gotten out.
