I will be attending this, though it may end up me going by myself and not actually with Virginia Tech.

W&M will be there with two buzzers, two teams, and probably a staffer. Also will have UVA's buzzers to return :cool:

Maryland might actually be kicking it up to 4 teams - I'll try to confirm tomorrow night, but it looks promising.

Yes, so you your best bet for free parking is to park near the stadium. There are closer places to park, but the probability that there will be open space is slim.

Anybody coming from Richmond have an extra spot in their car? I'm perfectly capable of driving, but it would be nice to save the gas.
