mule 31 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 Hey guys, sorry if this post is in the wrong area of the forum. Im still relatively new to the forum I read it almost every game day but rarely post so bare with me. I'm going to the game tomorrow and it is my first time being the driver. I was wondering if someone could tell me the cheapest place to park as well as being close to JLA. Thanks in advance. Let's Go Wings! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilzyme 769 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 I always park at greektown casino (parking is free) and then take the people mover to JLA, it cost .50 cents each way so $1/person. Best way for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 Park at MGM, it's free to park and you just walk a little further down to the Arena. You can also hit up the Casino after, which normally if they win I am feeling a bit generous to the dealers those evenings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways, after the game we were pretty down because we had lost to Vancouver or Chicago (forgot which one was the Friday game in March) and decided we'd play some slots with the $10 and hang out before we drove home. Sat down at some random 2 cent slot and was randomly hitting the max buttons or whatever and won ~90 bucks. Felt so accomplished that night, goes to show you I don't gamble that much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vladiator 116 Report post Posted May 9, 2011 If you want to get in and out of the Joe quickly and easily the Cobo roof parking lot is the way to go. It's $10.00 though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
