I am a passionate sports fan, who, like many, frequents AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Although these world-class venues undoubtedly offer an exceptional experience, the challenges related to parking and transportation can often mar the overall enjoyment of the event.

For commercial vehicles, and for the throngs of fans who participate in the proud tradition of tailgating before a game, adequate and convenient parking is essential. Current parking arrangements leave much to be desired. It's a situation that demands our attention and action.

Commercial vehicles, in particular, require suitable parking spots due to their size, but are often relegated to inconvenient areas that lack proper security measures. According to Texas Department of Transportation, in 2019 alone, there were 1,139 reported thefts of vehicles in Arlington, a significant portion of which involved commercial vehicles (Vehicle Theft in Texas - 2019 Report).

Moreover, the ritual of tailgating is a cherished part of the gameday experience. But the lack of sufficient parking spots impacts the ability of fans to engage in this practice freely and safely. A survey from the National Association of Sports Fans (NASF) reveals that parking issues are among the top 3 concerns for fans attending games.

It's time for AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field officials to seriously acknowledge and address these issues. We’re calling on management to reimagine their parking strategy - one that considers the needs of both commercial vehicles and tailgating fans – with parking spots that are convenient, safe, and accessible.

The gameday experience extends beyond the game itself. The setup and preparations, the camaraderie of fellow fans, the anticipation that builds - all these add to the richness of attending a live game and form memories that last a lifetime. That's worth fighting for.

We humbly request your signature in support of improved parking conditions at AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field. Together, let's ensure every fan's experience is a wholly positive one.
