Well.... Pulled into the parking lot at state tournament and was going to park where we could open the back and sit under the trees while we wait for the games. No....the entire front lot is reserved for the Owensboro Catholic parents and fans. Come on... They get the tournament, don't have travel or spend money and even get paid for hosting it. At least let people park where it's convenient! No favoritism should be given to any booster group.

Really? If that is true that is ridiculous. It is the STATE tournament not the Owensboro Catholic Invitational. If anything the host should be gracious and let the guests park in the front.
