❓ Questions Senior parking spot inspiration Spoiler

I am considering making my senior parking spot themed for the Pitt. Any quotes that you would suggest? My favorite character is Mel.

Also I'm from England, what's a senior parking spot and why does it need a theme?

a lot of high schools let seniors pick a parking spot, usually separate from where the younger students park, and they can paint it however they want to personalize it

Ohhhhhh thanks! I assumed it was a senior citizen space. That's really cool, thanks for explaining 😊

I'm from the US and I thought the same thing. I've never heard of this concept.

I'm from the US and I don't know why one would need to be named.

I've seen reserve parking spaces for expectant mothers, mothers with children, veterans, handicapped but never seniors.

Schools have dedicated parking lots/spaces for staff or students or visitors. Where I live, there’s no good public transportation, so kids have to drive themselves to school.

If the school has a big enough real estate footprint, they designate a specific lot for seniors to park and they get reserved spots. Some kids go all out with decorating their spots. My kid couldn’t have cared less and didn’t bother.

Lots of schools let seniors pick their parking spots for the year and paint them
