Football fans attending the Golden Gophers football game on Saturday evening should plan ahead for parking, as most street parking around the new TCF Stadium will be closed on game day.

Season tickets holders received parking passes, but most other fans will need to pay $10 to use public parking lots.

Shuttles will be available to provide connections between the stadium and the parking lots.

Ticket holders have two options:

The West Bank lots: 19th Ave. ramp (300 19th Ave. S) and 21st Ave. ramp (400 21st Ave. S). Officials caution that these lots have limited availability and may fill up quickly.

The St. Paul lot: Gortner Ave. ramp, lots 101 and S108 (1395 Gortner Ave.).

Officials have advised ticket holders to arrive early. Lots will open six hours before the start of the game.
