Ways to Charter bus to RU home games

[ScarletKid2008]

Hey everyone.

I’m organizing a large tailgate of 50+ people for the Oct 12 home game.

Was hoping to find the easiest and most convenient way to get families from Bergen county to the tailgate.

Was wondering if anyone has ever chartered a bus and able to buy a RV/bus parking pass for one of the lots?

Any charter bus suggestions ? Things to consider ?

Any restrictions on the passes (other than finding someone to sell me one)? Anything to know about the tailgate setup with a large bus that the lots require or force that is different ?

What lot is the tailgate being held in? How are you going to reserve the space for all of those people at the tailgate?

RU has specific Bus parking. Not the same as an RV pass

Ideally blue or yellow. But whenever I can get a pass on Busch campus for a bus

Good to know. Are bus passes only sold as season ticket packages ? Or only can be parked at the RAC ?

Call the ticket office.

I could be wrong but don’t recall an over the road coach in one of the regular lots.

They will not allow an actual bus in the lots. A converted school bus could use an RV pass. But busses park somewhere farther out. Silver lot maybe.

Perhaps Greek church ?

Solid suggestion. Never parked there but worth looking into

I’ve seen plenty of busses in the black lot through the years..

Game day Parking for RVs and Buses is only at Jersey Mike's Arena and will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Shuttle bus service to SHI Stadium will be provided free of charge on game day.

Call Academy Bus or Coach USA.

Johnson Park

too risky to count on that. If it rains then the lot is frequently closed because of flooding.

True and remember it’s not under Rutgers control.

But there is a spot in the parking lot where the busses turn around where one bus could fit and be out of the way.

Those are RVs not motor coaches

There have certainly been coach buses in the black lot. We’ve been parking in the small lot off Brett Road for years, and there have been many buses parked on the side of Brett road throughout the years.

If you park at the RAC you’ll have ample space and you can pay day of. Definitely the best way to do it. Everyone will get shuttled over on the RU buses from the RAC.

Ahh, I park in the other Black Lot.
