Looks like you and I are the only two. Early = choice of spots, etc. If you wait about 45 mins after the game, the traffic lessens and it's a nicer ride home. But by all means, everyone, keep showing up late.:wink:
Not a season ticket holder but went Monday and will be there Sunday . Stadium is a massive upgarde on what we had , is fan friendly as far as I could see . Was sat in 230a but looked at all concourses . used train and even though it was slightly bedlam it was a 40 min transfer to Penn Station which bearing in mind the crowd was pretty damn good. Main reason for my positive take is they had Brooklyn on draft!!! Thgat made up for the shit game and green day's lead singer looking like Barry Manilow
I spoke with my rep's boss today after three days of telephone tag. He had read my email about my parking problems and wanted some more information and specifics. He told me that they have meetings often on the parking issues people are facing. He might have been blowing sunshine up my ass when he told me that he brought my letter in to the last meeting with the parking people this week. He said he used it and a few other emails and postings he found as an example of what the customers are saying is going on in the lots. This is what he told me. They did over two years of studying traffic in and out of the stadium before they came up with the parking plan. Their basic idea is to get people out the same way they came in...so if you come in through Paterson Plank Road, they want to try and get you back out the same way. He told me that I should try and exit my parking lot as far north as possible, don't just go to the end of my aisle and go where the attendants direct me. He also said that the parking is a work in progress. As people give them feedback, they are trying to adjust what they do. It does make sense. I guess until you have 25,000 cars entering and leaving a small space like this on game day, you really have no idea how it is going to work out. I'll give them a few more weeks to work out the bugs.....and I'll have to plan my approach and departure more carefully like the rest of you smart folks have done. I figured that the green pass would make things all right, just my own damn fault for not having a plan.
Hell, we were in lot B and I thought that was an epic hike back to the car. Getting the run-around with the escalators was annoying enough without the detour around the train tracks following it. We have a guy who walks with a cane in our group, I have a feeling this will be his last season.
I feel like we must have tried that. Hell, he tried to play that card for an aisle seat in the new stadium to no avail.
I took my 82 year old mother to the game Sunday and parked in the HC spots using an orange pass. 3 times parking people tried to stop me because they saw the orange pass before they saw the HC pass. The guy at the final entrance to the suite lots stuck his head in the car to make sure that I had a HC person in my car. The stadium Guest Services people were actually great. They took Mom up to the 300 Level by wheelchair. I can't believe that something actually went right with my experience.
What method, elevator? I don't think there are elevators that go to the 300 level....Just wondering. Glad that your Mom got some special attention.
