Mariucci Arena Parking

To catch the Minnesota Golden Gophers hockey games, you're going to want to know where to park. Parking isn't always the most pleasant experience when going to a sporting event. In fact, it can be downright frustrating.

Mariucci Arena Parking has several parking options for those Friday and Saturday night games in Dinkytown.

In the vicinity of Mariucci Arena includes street parking, ramp parking, and surface lots. The arena is on the west end of the campus off of University Avenue, next to TCF Bank Stadium. When TCF opened, it took some Mariucci Arena Parking away. It didn't take all of it however. The parking lot just a block north of Mariucci is $10 to park in, followed by a ramp two blocks west of the rink. The ramp is fairly easy to find a spot, but it's getting out of the ramp that tends to take a little longer.

If you'd prefer to park on the street, Washington and Oak Street provide meters if there are avaliable ones. If those aren't open, the next best bet is to look for a meter on University Avenue headed towards St. Paul. The last resort would be looking for several smaller lots around the arena that can charge anywhere from $8 to $20.

Nick Bjugstad: Pro or No?

The main question for the University of Minnesota's superstar Nick Bjugstad is whether or not he should return for another year of schooling and college hockey or if he should sign a contract that would make him a professional hockey player next season.

Bjugstad has come out stating that the decision is a very difficult one. He hinted that he would like to return to school in order to complete his degree in Business.

Nick Bjugstad is 6'6", 19 years old and a sophomore in college.
