The North Charleston Coliseum has issued a parking advisory for the NBA Classic featuring the Charlotte Bobcats vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday, October 10th.

If you plan to attend the game, take a look at this press release:

A capacity crowd is expected for the event. Attendees are strongly encouraged to carpool and arrive early.

If all Coliseum lots fill to capacity, additional parking and a free shuttle to and from the Coliseum will be available at Tanger Outlet Mall near the North Charleston Fire Museum. To access the Tanger lots, enter at International Blvd. and Centre Pointe Dr.

Coliseum parking lots open at 4:30 PM.

Coliseum doors open at 6:30 PM. The game will start at 7:30 PM sharp.

Tickets for Saturday’s game are still available at the Coliseum Ticket Office, Ticketmaster outlets (including select Publix grocery stores), charge by phone 1-800-745-3000 or online at ticketmaster.com.

So what they're saying is to expect some parking snare, but some serious tailgating.
