Chicago Bears season ticket holders can secure good parking near Soldier Field if they are willing to pay as much as $1,000 extra per season, under a plan approved Wednesday by the Chicago Park District.

Park officials said they saw guaranteed parking spots being auctioned on eBay and realized there was revenue to be made in premium parking.

gold...I got a gold parking pass from my dad's company's tickets one time and I was literally in the first row of cars, I could have thrown a tennis ball and hit the stadium no problem. We lost to the eagles that game. 03-04 season.

All parking at FedEx is $35.00 per game. How close you are is determined by the type seats you have.

Suites and Lodge = Purple
Club = Orange
General Admission = Green, Blue, Red, White

There is a waiting list for General Admission Parking for all but the White(cash) lots.

Purple,orange, and green are the only lots on the stadium proper.

$100 thats insane. $1000 per year???

Do yourself a favor and buy a handicapped parking sticker on ebay for $20. Not only does it give you front row parking at the game, but also at the mall, grocery store, or wherever.

It's only their VIP parking. What their regular parking rates are I'm not sure. It would be interesting to know though.

When I go to Pats games in NE, i'm paying 40-65.00 dollars and walking half a mile. Where does it end? $100.00 is outrageous.

I'm paid $705 for a season green pass from ebay. Is it alot yep, but there were about 16 people in the auction. So the demand is there. I have seen them going for 800 for the season after I bought mine.

Consider that the El doesn't really take you that close to Soldier Field either.

The Metra takes you right next to soldier field...the stop is even called soldier field, no way I'd ever pay that much for parking

Please tell me you're kidding about $35.00 a game.

Nope. All parking regardless of location is $35.00 face value per game from the skins.
