My next visit to my local will probably be my last. A friend told me that starting soon, they will begin charging $5 to self-park. This is the comment from their FB page:

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Tampa Thank you for your comment. In response to your question about parking, yes it is true. We are upgrading security features at our parking garages, including the implementation of paid parking. At this time parking is still complimentary and an exact start date will be announced in the future. This update is being done to align ourselves with other 4 star, 4 diamond hotels in the nation and entertainment venues in the Tampa Bay area. Complimentary parking will be offered to Elite guests, hotel guests and guests who dine at Council Oak or Grey Salt while visiting our establishment. We hope that you'll visit us again soon.



I have some FP to use and then I'll save my money for Coushatta and other destinations. @Jeani are you still planning on going this weekend?
