How? I have been going to football games in East Tennessee and have been charged to park at every location. Rhea County, McMinn Co, Grundy Co, Hamilton Co. Walker Co Georgia, Dalton, Ga etc. Generally the parking fee is for the band, ROTC or some club on campus. I even saw a case at East Ridge where an individual refused to pay and the police got involved. The only time i am not charged is if I park outside the parking area or I get there before they set up.
