Park in the deck at Market Square for free and walk to one of the bars/restaurants down there then ride the trolley to and from the game.

Gus' Good Times Deli for eats, Half Barrell and Cool Beans are good bars ... those are in the area of "The Strip" aka Cumberland Ave by campus ... parking in this area, or in the fort, ranges from $10-$30. This area is east of the stadium.

The Market Street garage is west of the stadium, not really any food or drink in that direction, unless you're in Market Square

I had never been there until Saturday. Great place to eat, drink and watch games before going to the stadium.

You haven't been to a ball game if you don't make your way to the strip in a Pigeon Forge.

Some folks are compass challenged. The Fort Sanders and Cumberland (strip) areas are north and northwest of the stadium. The Market St garage is east of the stadium. Calhoun's and the city garage are south/southeast of the stadium.

Ah yes, the Half Barrel. My weekly (well, home game) favorite. I'll be there tomorrow.
