For instance, up until 4pm (I think it doesn't apply during auction weeks) you can park-and save a spot on either side of your legally parked car. The folks I hang with primarily...get to the cruise between 8:15-8:30 am, as it's "first come, first saved" up until 4pm. We all park and sit together. There are days when we can't-and it's no biggie.
There are only two rows that are off limits to most folks. First is Corvette row-only Corvettes (any year is okay in this row) can park there. The second row is the row behind that, which is club row-which rotates every week to a different manufacturer. One weekend it's Oldsmobiles, the next Mopar, etc. This coming weekend it's Desert Derelicts turn-as Rick noted above.
Some of the other cruises (67th Ave for example in Peoria) allows folks to save unlimited spots and there is no time limit as far as I know. Rick may have a better idea-as I don't often go this this cruise, even though it's only 5 minutes from my house.

I'm aware of the rules and the club row stuff, I've been attending since 2005. Unfortunately these shenanigans are going on well past 4pm now. It was nearing 6pm when there were cones in front of spots. I took it upon myself to move it so someone could park. If you think I sound bad, you should hear what some of the group at 67th and Bell say about the Pavilions, lol. I think CC Riders signature location of Spoiled Bratsville sums up the general thought from most I've talked to. I attend 67th somewhat frequently ever since Nancy started it, as I have friends not far at 67th and Happy Valley, and we've never had an issue with parking, knock on wood.
Doesn't matter to me which one I go to since I simply go East or West when I hit town. I still enjoy the Pavilions and love to attend. I just hope this stuff doesn't go too far to the point the longest running cruise is no more. They have a great thing going that we all enjoy, would hate to see it ruined.
