Hawaii football fans get a new pre-game hangout this season, good news for tailgaters but only if they have a parking pass.

• The University of Hawaii is moving its pre-game party to the roof of a campus parking structure next to the football complex.
• It replaces the old party spot that ran along the path outside the stadium.
• The new setup has live music, local food and craft vendors, and a beer garden with TVs showing other games.
• Players will do a walk-through a couple hours before kickoff, giving fans a look at the team.
• You need a parking pass to get in, so the crowd will be limited to drivers who plan ahead.

Outlook: Expect the rooftop spot to draw big crowds on opening weekend, with parking passes the main bottleneck.
