Yeah that light rail is so clutch. Park somewhere near the rail, away from the stadiums and just get outta there after the game is over in a reasonable amount of time. Fantastic for the fans and commuters.

Went to the All-Star Saturday events this past weekend at Dodger Stadium. General Admission parking was up to 60 bucks, tall can budlight is 22.50 now. No thank you.

That’s true

It took me 3 hours to get home from the Ohio State and Penn State game this year. We stayed for the full game. We were in a parking garage for 2 hours. It was a mess. I had the thought what am I doing? I should have left with 5 mins left and we could have maybe gotten home in an hour. It was my first sporting event since Covid and my son wanted to stay for the full game.

@Lordeverfall100 What's the point of even going to a sporting event if you're not even gonna stick it through to the end?

I remember filling out those chad riddles All-Star ballots and putting them in the box at Yankee Stadium. 😁👍

2011 Cardinals thank Bud Selig for the home field advantage in the WS being tied to the All Star game. :)

Oh dear. I’m a life long Chargers fan and will go to Sofi for the first time this year. I’ll be staying at a friends place in Irvine, wondering what time I should leave to go to the game.

This is why public transit is so important if LA had subways or trains it wouldn’t be as much of a issue

I will always be grateful for growing up a Mets fan and born/raised in Flushing.

I live in Hollywood. If I wanted to go to the All Star game last night, I would have driven to Echo Park and walked from there. For an event like that, there's no way I'm using stadium parking. For a regular season game it's doable though. FWIW, my roommate went to the Super Bowl at Sofi Stadium in Inglewood. He rode his bike. He actually works for the NFL, and works at Sofi, and he typically uses a combo of the bus and his bike to get there from Hollywood. If your willing to do stuff like that, you can get places way faster than in a car in LA.

Home field for the World Series would be great if the teams actually tried to win the game -- it would be worth watching too

Baseball hands down has the best All Star game because they actually play it like it’s a real game!💯 Unlike the joke of the Pro Bowl & the NBA, but I’m glad that rule is gone!

It will be surreal to have the ASG tonight where everyone's rooting for a tie

Another reason why SF beats LA: you can walk to the park, train it, bus it, trolly it, or drive it. Just got to watch out for the poop if you walk to the game.

I went. Getting there from Woodland Hills wasn’t too bad, 45 minutes…getting home? That was a nightmare. Took us an hour to get out of the parking lot. The heat kinda sucked for the first half but once you got in the shade it was nice.

I'm pretty happy with my ACFC season tickets. But I catch a bus to avoid traffic and parking fees.

Lol, I'm only 33 and if I have to drive to go to a game, I ain't going. I'm not dealing with that headache of parking and trying to leave

I love you rich but there's a place named NYC. Try getting out in a foot of snow

I used to enjoy filling out the All-Star ballots when I was a kid, but I hated it when fans would just vote for their team's players. I always tried to vote for whoever was having the best season at his position, regardless of whether he played for my favorite team. I thought it was really unfair to the players to do otherwise. It actually used to make me mad when a player hitting .260 would be voted in over a guy hitting .320, assuming HR and RBI totals were in the same range.

I live about 40 minutes from the Philadelphia stadium complex and I haven't been to any of their games in probably at least 6 years. I can't stand the ridiculous prices to park and the traffic after the game is just unbearable. I can imagine it is at least 5 times worse in LA.

It’s 20 bucks a car if u go the right parking lots. and traffic is not that bad. Go to a Mets game and deal with 25k Mets fans going down one highway. or a nationals game THAT DOESNT HAVE THEIR OWN PARKING LOT. U have to drive around for 45 minutes and try to find a parking garage. Philly is pretty great. Not many places have their own complex away from the rest of the city

It just means you got shitty public transport in LA.

Would be way better if you could take the train to the stadium

It's not too far from LA to OC 30-40min. LA\OC Traffic 1hr+ is the freaking issue. I'm a Lifetime Dodgers Fan from OC. Used to go to dodgers game alot as a kid. Now Hell No. Worst traffic getting out of the stadium. I go to Angels games. The easiest and quickest leaving the stadium. So many ways to leave the stadium. And the main freeway that takes you to different counties next to the stadium. Anaheim Angels stadium getting in and out with no traffic. It's the best.

NY 🖤

This comment is live, seconds before the first pitch of the ASG. Can't help but notice how many empty seats during the introduction of players, the National Anthem, Denzel Washington and Mookie Betts. I guess all those people just could not get there?

Have you ever been to Dodger Stadium? It literally takes 30 minutes to get from the final traffic light before entering the stadium to get to a parking spot remotely close to your seats.

As a baseball fan, the MLB all-star game is so boring and it takes forever.

Real fans watch from home.

Saints -5 parlayed with Broncos -5 week one is a banger!!!!!!!😎😎😎

This is exactly why you could never pay me to live in that city

I've said it for years about Dodgers stadium, it may have the best attendance in baseball but that's the worst stadium for fans. You get to park against a hill and walk a mile to the stadium and pay $20 for the privilege. Everything from the dodger dogs to the seating is overpriced and overrated...never again..

Munson!

Rich needs to see a doctor. Something doesn’t seem right.

i think the all-star game is for someone like me someone who zones out once your team gets stuck under .500. rockies fans dont eat well!

Wow. A whole segment without discussing the obscene $ pro athletes get

I voted for Joe School.....Chico Ecsheulla...

I used to the enjoy the All-Star Game. Grabed every ballot to fill it out. Now, I rather see the players get a week off rather than play a All-Star Game.

Niners Packers week 3, niners came back scored to take the lead with 50 seconds left I told this chick we should beat the traffic, Rodgers won’t do it, we walked out of the stadium as the Packers fans roared as mason crosby sent one thru the uprights, we missed the whole thing, but we beat the traffic

No one cares why you skipped the all star game. Seriously, no one cares.
