    Where do you park for attending a Texans game when you don't have a parking pass? I'm driving to Houston for the jaguars game, I've never been to reliant.

    Yes, I know they suck and we should be protesting blah blah blah....

    I've never been, and my gf got me tickets for the game. She got them back in the 3rd week of the season before all hell broke loose with this team.

    Rep to people who give advise on where to park. I know the train thing runs by the stadium, don't know where to park though...I'm not familiar with the area.

    The couple of times I've taken the train I parked at either the Museum of Fine Arts or Hermann Park. I think MFAH shares its parking with a church so that may not work on a Sunday morning, there should be street parking in the area though.

    If you park in downtown or midtown and hop the train, parking is free. Also don't bother buying a rail ticket, the metro police never check on gameday. The McGowen station, Bell, and Main Street Square have a lot of free, street level parking nearby. The HMNS/Hermann Park Station also has free parking nearby, but people may be there already to go to the zoo etc.

    Park at the final stop of Metrorail. I believe it's the "Fannin South" stop. Plenty of parking.

    Especially if you are coming from the Missouri City, Sugarland, Stafford area. You can come/go up South Main, exit Holmes road and drive to/from Fannin without hitting traffic because you don't go near 610. Took me less than 20 mins to get home once I got in my car. :)

    I park at Main & Holman...get on the train at the Ensemble station. You can park for free along Holman or one of the adjacent streets. You're still far enough away from the stadium to avoid all traffic.

    Word to that.

    Also, it is easier to catch a Northbound train after the game than a Southbound one.
