Where can I park my bus at Hartford show?

Going to the Hartford show and I'd like to bring my '48 Chevy school bus but it doesn't look like there's a parking lot at the arena. Never been to Hartford before so I'm not familiar with the area. Are there any lots where there will be tailgaiting parties?

    Theres a garage near the arena....across the street pretty much. Not sure if a school bus can fit in there

    Yeah it's pretty big, not sure I'd be able to get it in a garage. Thanks though. :D

    The only places youre really gonna find tailgating is in the parking lots/garages. There is a street full of bars across the street from the arena

    I have no idea, but this is one of the greatest threads I've seen in a long time.

    It's too big to fit in the garage.

    That's what she said.

    The outside lots should allow tailgating. They are nuts during the st patties day parade. Not sure about the garages. I'll be at "the tavern" drinking kilkenny Irish red

    Please send a picture of this...curious minds, etc...

    There are parking lots on Allyn St. (by Black Bear Saloon) and also on Asylum Ave (entrance is on Pearl St)...directly across from Black Eyed Sally's and Pig's Eye Pub. I'd park here...get there early if possible.
    I love to turn you on

    well just throw up a link and click on the 'img' button listed above...

    regarding the bus...there is a small parking lot adjacent to the Black Bear Saloon...not sure if they'll let you park in there but you can try. you may want to offer to pay for 2 spaces if need be.
    I love to turn you on

    Okay, I created a site on shutterfly with the pictures. They are before and after shots. It's all primed and ready for paint (we're going to have people add their artwork at the different shows we go to). I'm hoping that one of those parking lots will let us stay there overnight!

    Alexander Supertramp. Is that you? Killer bus! You should have no issues finding a spot if you get there early enough.
