This year though I believe the Expediters are going to have to park a little tighter together and use that walkway for the BBQ and gatherings. It will all work out well I believe! Hopefully GottaGo will get there early and get that spot reserved.

Down at the entrance end, from the road, you will usually see a group of straight trucks/exp. Trucks.

There is usually a spot or two between them for vans to park. This year with the new rules not sure how that will change.

The vans seem to be able to squeeze in pretty easily with the Expedite Group. GottaGo's truck is easily the most identifiable or Susie's truck with her flags.

If you come in from in from I-65 and take exit 132 Crittenden Dr. and take a right on Central Ave then get in left lane to take a left on Floyd you will go past several gates and you will be able to see where the Expediters park on your right. Right after that you will see D Gate. To me this is the easiest way to get into Papa Johns and find the Expediters.
