Thanks, Phil. I had the thought the other day that I needed to fly this thread and see who salutes.

ALERT to all planning to attend the festival

The new uber-expensive Dallas Cowboys stadium will open on the 6th and has a big event (George Strait concert with Reba McIntire and Julianne Hough at 5:30) the same day, and they will be parking cars for thousands of stadium employees and VIP guests on the UTA campus and shuttling them north to the stadium.

There is parking at the stadium itself for the festival, and they get away with charging people to park there. I park at a friend's home nearby and walk over. I don't know if there is any advice to give except it might be a lot more crowded around campus this year, and there may be traffic jams in town. Be patient.
