What are the tailgating rules at Walkup Skydome?

Tailgating is welcome in all Skyjacks parking lots (4Runner, Tundra, Tacoma), which open six hours prior to kickoff. The Ponderosa family-friendly pregame tailgate, located along the Southwest entrance, opens 2.5 hours prior to kickoff and is free to all fans with a DJ, cold drinks, kids inflatables and yard games. The Student Tailgate lot opens three hours prior to kickoff and gates close two hours prior to kickoff.

Is there a sun and shade map for Walkup Skydome?

No. A roof covers the seats, so the aerial lidar we use only sees the roof, not the rows under it. The J. Lawrence Walkup Skydome is a fully enclosed wood-domed stadium that covers the football field. Without the rows we can't measure sightlines or sun minutes honestly, so this guide sticks to the schedule, parking and stadium policies.
