SouthSidePride05 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 (edited) Does anyone know if there's any shuttle busses available to and from US Cellular? The reason I'm asking is because yesterday I noticed a bunch of signs at Yorktown Mall announcing $6 round-trip express shuttle Pace busses to and from Wrigley Field for every Cubs game. If the Sox did this, it would save fans a lot of money (gas money and $17 for parking), and it would give suburban Sox fans another option on how to get to the ballpark. In fact they should have multiple shuttle busses going to the Cell from different malls.. park your car at the mall and take the bus. Does something like this already exist for the Sox?

Controlled Chaos Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I've also seen that bus at Yorktown...I don't think they have anything like that for the cell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because you can actually park at the Cell for under 40 bucks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3E8 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 (edited) Getting back to the topic, I think it would be great if the Sox had something similar. Brooks may be working on it. Edited July 8, 2005 by 3E8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks everyone for your responses. I just hate paying $17 but I heard that Lot G is $8 if you get there an hour and a half before gametime. Can you park there 2 hrs before gametime, and what about if you get there just 1 hr before gametime; does it fill up quickly?? I hate being on such a tight budget. BTW, why do all my threads get off topic and get out of hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactamundo...why would I park at a mall far far away from the cell, take a SUPEEEEEEEEEERRR long bus ride there and back, just to save a couple of bucks. When I can park at the game whenever I please??? It shall never occur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen this bus thing to Wrigley, but I seriously doubt it's $6 round trip. Maybe next time I venture to Yorktown, where apparently I am not supposed to shop .. I'll ask about it.

I haven't seen it either but I do know that the cubs provide a lot of other shuttles at mostly their expense. Part of a deal with the city to alleviate the horrendous parking and train situation around there. I have also seen the double decker bus shuttles from the Ravenswood Metra stop for night games. Seems easier than driving down there. Thats a total pain in the ass. Edited July 8, 2005 by ceffa2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
