I think so. Another friend also posted similar. Awesome news for those looking for parking. That's one thing I actually don't hassle with.

they probably sent the email bec. they were getting too many requests for info about parking. They mistakenly never took down the signage on the site from last year that said parking was sold out so people started getting nervous that parking was already gone.

i read this as the equivalent of 'simmer down nerds'

They have never really taken down their page year to year. they seem to just reset it or tweek the url slightly.  That was how it was "leaked" last year.

First post so here and I'm glad i found this site. Anyway i remember getting a parking email awhile back and I tried looking for it. It seems to be in mid April, parking at the convention center was the best.

any idea when the date was leaked last year? I just checked my receipts, and I purchased mine on 4/18/11, my e-mail shows 11:20am. I got the 4 days under the con center, 12.92 each day. Also, a few years ago I was in NO condition to drive, so stayed the nite in my car in the con center parking garage. Not sure if they patrol it more these days, but this was back before they pre-sold the parking.

I dont know why if you have all four days parking you cant just leave it there.  Heck if they just want more money charge a little more for an overnight allowed pass.

I'd imagine that they are pretty lax, since the anime rooms and some of the film rooms don't end til 2am, and how late is the con-suite open? I just clicked the links to my parking purchases from last year, and my parking passes are STILL online, ready to be printed from thepermitstore website!

The standing rumor is that we can use that as one of the signs that they are using a different setup. otherwise they would likely have purged the database on it by now.  I am thinking its sitting forgotten. Heck that is how some people got passes earlier last year, the old addy was forgotten but still worked

That's the one annoying thing. At least one night of the con we try to go out afterwards. Only to have to keep track of time so I can be sure the car is out of the lot by midnight.

They can't get too picky about the "out by midnite" since some of the anime movies at the Marriott didn't even start til 12:30am on Friday and Saturday.

They can be as picky as they want. They are the Lot owners and have no direct connection to CCI or the events going on int he gaslamp. Generally they are forgiving and have at times allowed people to stay parked VERY late or i have heard over night if you talk to them before hand and shoe proof of paying for both days.  It is only rumor that they let this happen.

yeah after the posted cutoff time, it's park at your own risk. im sure they won't tow right at 12:01 or whatever but 1-2am might be pushing it for some of the more popular lots...
