Learned it in my early military days too.....

"Lombardi time" is the principle that one should arrive 10–15 minutes early, or else be considered late.

My Alma matter compensated for that by starting classes 10 after the hour.

I used to live in the Chicago area, and remember without fondness 90 min drives to HS games.
Now that I live in South New Jersey, where we get almost no snow and most games are 30 min away, no more complaints from me!!

Especially if I have never been to a school before, I give myself a half hour of 'getting lost time'. It takes the pressure off.

Every school I work at is at least 50 miles from work, so I have to give myself plenty of time to account for traffic accidents.
