Does that mean no parking on the vard if you have a parking pass?

Sucks, but understandable, would just be too dangerous and too risky, especially since the turnout will be low. People slipping on ice, cars trading paint, drunk people getting hypothermia.

It is the right call.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

Would think they will let you park anywhere as doubt the lots will be full.

You do realize the MONUMENTAL nature of this...

This will be the first time since the start of the BLVD that an actual SMU football game will have outdrawn the crowd at the BLVD.

Posted by SMU on FaceBook:

SMU Football Update: The game against UCF will proceed as scheduled at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, but there will be no tailgating or other Boulevard activities in light of continuing weather-related issues. ‪#‎PonyUp‬

Exactly!! I huge tree limb fell over onto my daughter's car in the sorority lot. It was actually frozen to the car. The SMU grounds crew was kind enough to help her remove it and help her with scraping the ice off her car so she could move it to a garage. Luckily no serious damage was done. Be careful out there!!

It's how jim Krebs died, as you probably know. Trees are dangerously weighted down with ice.
