LSU vs South Carolina Football Game

single game parking usually goes on sell sometime in august, check the lsu website as it gets closer
there are free lots as well depending on how early you arrive to campus, just follow the signs or find a lot where no security is set up as checkpoints

hotel wise, the downtown hotels are pretty popular, also the lauberge casino down river road

If things haven’t changed, you can park at the fairgrounds for free or for cheap.

Ramada Inn, Sleep Inn, Comfort Hotel if you're not trying to spend a lot. I've stayed at each while on assignments and no complaints. All are located in Columbia and about 15 minutes from campus.

Parking at or around the fairgrounds is cheap. Hotels either stay downtown Columbia or go to the Harbison area
