    Going to the expo, go Saturday or Sunday?

    Are crowds about the same Sat vs Sun? Sun only goes 6 hours vs 8 Sat. Sunday is reported to be the bargain day, but 6 hours doesn't seem like a lot of time to go through it all. I'd rather not have to spend a night there for both days.

    Usually Saturday will be the most crowded. I like going on Friday, but it will be crowded every day I am sure.

    The parking at all the UT places is $20 cash this time. Support those Vols! Last classic there it was free.

    Get ready to do some searching for parking, 45 minutes looking for a parking place this morning, layout is weird too, I am pretty sure I missed a whole section.

    We parked in the G10 parking garage today, which is right beside Thompson-Boling arena. $20. Shuttle buses run from the arena and take you straight to the classic.

    Drive around the houses behind the center and maybe you can find a curb side spot open, worked for me today.
