Re: Jackson Stadium
Home side had quite a few ppl who were there to watch the game and not Johnnies fans. It was fairly full but there was plenty if searing left. Just looking around where I was at come kickoff, the 45, there were seats all around no-one was packed in. I'd love to know the final count for that game, my guess was 5,500-6,000 just a rough guess though. Looking across at visitor side it looked like it was shoulder to shoulder.55buckeyes98 wrote: Mon Nov 26, 2018 10:16 pm It looked like the home side was pretty full, I'd say Johnstown traveled well!

That's the thing. There was no one directing traffic or parking cars at all.Ironman92 wrote: Mon Nov 26, 2018 8:18 pm I was impressed of how it held the crowd. I came up at halftime and had never ever seen cars parked on both sides of the entrance of the drive to the field house...those folks caused a lot of trouble for those leaving in the early 4th quarter. Cars trying to go both ways and only room for one car. Zero chance they were directed to park there and those 12-15 cars clustered up the exit badly for nearly 15 minutes.
Jackson parking is WAAAAY better than many let on but it’s hairy for a packed 7,000 in attendance (estimate).....but al season long it is not a problem at all IMO

Re: Jackson Stadium
Yeah typically there's guys parking them in the open field next to the field. Not sure where you parked there was guys directing parking past the field house along the road there outside the fenceCrab's Brother wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 8:53 amThat's the thing.

Re: Jackson Stadium
I believe you but that also doesn’t sound right. Typically around 5 different people (maintenance/custodial staff) pointing you to a recommended area. I didn’t arrive until the end of the second quarter so I just picked a spot that wasn’t really legal but not constricting traffic.Crab's Brother wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 8:53 amThat's the thing.

Re: Jackson Stadium
heard the stadium was being condemned is this true i hope so they need a new stadium.
Re: Jackson Stadium
A plan is being looked into. A $9.4 million dollar design is in the works. It will seat 11,750 and also include the adjacent land that is going to have a 3 story parking garage that will hold around 600 cars/trucksWhynotus18 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 1:34 pm heard the stadium was being condemned is this true i hope so they need a new stadium.
Re: Jackson Stadium
There was ppl out there directing you, even had someone standing there as you went up the hill from the 139 side. Ironman92 you weren't the one in the red truck parked in the grass on the hillside next to the handicap parking, that I watched driving over the the concrete burm??Ironman92 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 1:22 pmI believe you but that also doesn’t sound right.

Re: Jackson Stadium
We got there 35 minutes before kickoff and never had a soul directing us. We came up the 139 side and there was no one there at all.Ironman92 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 1:22 pmI believe you but that also doesn’t sound right.

Re: Jackson Stadium
Does Jackson usually have enough parking on the hill for regular season games or do people have to park down at the middle school?
Re: Jackson Stadium
It’s being discussed. Proposed $2 as normal and $350 per County #27 tagGalliaGrad78 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 3:43 pmDoggone, I bet the cost of parking is going up! lolIronman92 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 1:42 pmA plan is being looked into.

Re: Jackson Stadium
I've been there when burg played at Jackson and there was plenty of parking area, but like I said they use a open field they have there for parking and Saturday they didn'tBBALL99 wrote: Tue Nov 27, 2018 3:50 pm Does Jackson usually have enough parking on the hill for regular season games or do people have to park down at the middle school?
Re: Jackson Stadium
Didn’t realize they didn’t use that field.
