Thanks for all the good advice about where to park near LCA last week.

We parked on the street [[free) on Second near Charlotte, and ate at the wonderful Founders Taproom on Charlotte. Founders has a small parking lot that was full when we arrived at 5 PM. Walked the two blocks to LCA.

Parking lots that we saw near LCA were charging $30-$47.

We didn't buy food or drink inside LCA [[bottled water cost $5 as stated above).

Our mezzanine seats were shallow [[front to back) and narrow. I would not sit in seats like those again, even for free.

We were grateful to our friends for the tickets, but were sad to know that the total cost of "going to the game" would probably be out of reach for many.
