I never understood this. I always park in the back, and watch and laugh at the cars that act like vultures, that keep circling areas closer to the entrance of a store. I zoom around them, park where I am 5 spaces away from a car, and am in the store before they even park. I always think, "You guys are idiots." Especially when they're going to be walking well over a mile in that store, an extra 50 feet of walking in the parking lot isn't going to kill you! It's so much easier to park, and it's so much easier to get out, when you park a little further away. If you park too close, the traffic is worse and people will be blocking you to try to get into your own spot. (If you have to park on the side of the road, it's a different story)
It is really funny when people make such an effort to park very close to their gym. They seem to be forgetting the point of why they are there.
