Parking Madness Elite Eight: Rochester vs. Detroit
The last spot in the 2014 Parking Madness Final Four is at stake today, as Rochester faces off against Detroit.
The pictures of these two places, below, really speak for themselves. So without further ado, we'll leave it up to you guys to tell us which city has the worst parking crater.

Give us your choice for worst parking crater below.
