We have to have our car along b/c the guy we've been crashing with is having surgery tomorrow morning so we have to have our stuff and vehicle out of his place. Where can we park at 6am where we wouldn't have to move the car ever? I don't care how much it costs. I'm not familiar with this area at all so if someone had a map of the UC area and could indicate where to park or where people parked for yesterday, I'd really appreciate it!
you can park on Adams street just west of Damen (adams is an east/west street, Damen is north/south). I parked there yesterday before the lot opened and it was fine. You can easily move your car at 12.
United Center security were great yesterday--no hassles about getting there before 12, and most people were pretty good about getting numbers on their wrists and lining up in that order. Chicago police never came...so if you've been concerned or stressed, just relax You can leave the line to go eat, you can leave to go to the bathroom, etc. Just make sure you are there most of the day if you arrive early and act in good faith. The port-o-lets are closed off my staff by 5:30 pm or so, and you'll be in line for a good hour after that, so watch your beverage intake Enjoy the shows, everyone!
