Also, season-ticket holders who purchased season parking permits for the 2016 season received a white 2017 Blue-White Game parking permit with their 2016 tickets and parking permit sheet last summer. Season-ticket holders planning to attend the Blue-White Game are asked to hang their permit as they approach Beaver Stadium. Previously issued Blue-White Game parking permits that are lost will not be replaced. Sea- son- ticket holders with a white permit and pa- trons with pre-purchased permits will be able to park in the lots closest to Beaver Stadium. Fans who do not have a parking permit that came with their 2016 season tickets or did not purchase parking permits in advance will be charged for parking on game day. During Blue- White Weekend, there will be a $20 charge (cash only) for game day RVs and cars, and a $60 charge (cash only) for the overnight RV lot (for all fans who arrive on Friday with an RV). Buses also will be charged $60 (cash only).
