    City of Madison: Epic fail. My friend and I drove around more than 45 min looking for parking. We ended up parking at my friend's workplace more than a mile away. Why in the name of common sense does every side street within a mile of the Kohl Center need a 2 hr parking restriction and if Madison is serious about keeping the WIAA tournaments in Madison, here is an idea..for Thursday and Friday, lift those 2 hour restrictions...we are from the area and know all the ramps and even some not so publicized spots...they were all full. We should have been there in plenty of time for the start of the first game but walked into the Kohl Center at the start of the 3rd quarter. I wonder if you are trying to get the WIAA to take the tournament to the Resch Center?? You say you want to keep it in Madison but somehow find a way to make things far more difficult than needed. Madison always seems to get a well deserved A in that category.
