Thought I would take a poll while were waiting for the season to start.
Which lot do you prefer at The Rent and why? I see pros and cons with each!
Blue Lot-
PROS: Well the prestige goes a long way to have that lot but that's mostly the biggest advantage. Also, you have the tailgaters that come early and stay late, which means you don't get harassed by the State Police if you want to hang out longer b4 and after the game. (They usually clear out Red and Grey prior to giving the people in Blue a hard time to leave, which buys you some more drinking or sobering up time, whichever you prefer or need).
CONS: You get packed in like sardines and have NO room to move around, toss a FB of whatever... Also, the chix are typically older/not as good looking as a whole, just bcuz you need to donate more $$$ for Blue passes and 25 y/o's typically dont spend their xtra $$ on Athletic Dept donations! I HAVE seen some pretty hot 30something 3rdbass's out there quite a few times though.....
Grey Lot-
PROS:Just as close to the Stadium as Blue in most cases and you can get them by just being a loyal multi-year season ticket holder w/ out a donation, although it helps. The new section of Grey from last year is pretty mint. Has trees to shield you from the sun/wind. MUCH more room to spread out than what Blue offers you.
CONS: Not many, but I did notice that the State Troopers were much more aggressive in clearing out the lot IMMEDIATELY after each game last year, compared to years past. If there was a con, they make you walk all the way around up top Blue lot if you park in the trees even though the student entrance on the Grey side is closer (They dont want people blocking traffic as they cross the entry lanes). Also, it might take a bit longer to get out if you leave right after the game than Blue Lot.
Red Lot (The Bad Lands)-
PROS: Some wild partying out there and not a TON of tailgating. I have seen more chix willing to show off their business out there after a few drinks than ANY other lot. In fact, I've NEVER seen it in any lot other than Red!
CONS: Its the wild wild west out there and most tailgaters are new to the craft and dont tie down tents etc... I have seen MANY a tent flyin in my day. Oh, and just so you know, the guy who's tent hit you car is not required to give you any insurance information bcuz the wind is an "act of God" or at least thats what the troopers said when the owners of some dented up cars returned!
Full disclosure, I have Blue Passes but park in Grey. Reason: I Just like the extra room there to throw the ball around and play mad drinking games. The chix seem to be a lot hotter/younger there than Blue Lot as well. I have had passes in ALL three lots over the years and have met some great people at The Rent! Cant wait for the season to start!

That's where it's at! It's like reliving college all over again each game! I love it out there. Granted, my wife's having our kid in August, our first, so I might not enjoy Red Lot at all once our daughter gets old enough to attend her first UConn game. Unfortunately, I'll be watching UConn from home this season or else I'd be rocking Red Lot for one last year!
