Omg yes it’s fine. Yes, there are some areas of the city that are less safe, but pretty much any area a tourist or visitor will go is fine. The sports complex has a heavy police presence during events, just bc there’s so much congestion, and the parking lots are fully staffed with dozens of employees.

That said, I’d send him to Chickee’s and Pete’s, the local sports bar/restaurant that’s about two blocks from the stadium. He can park there and eat and drink to his heart’s content. Once upon a time they had a free shuttle between the restaurant and stadiums called the taxi crab (named after their crab fries) but tbh I haven’t been in awhile and don’t know if they still run it.

Uber after a concert with 70k people is a terrible ide


Might be terrible but it’s safe. And I’m sure it’s relatively organized.

As for a place to eat, do Melrose Diner.

Uber would be insane. They’ll slap on surge pricing and you’ll pay 10x the amount you’d usually pay.

Take the subway. It’s designed to move a large crowd quickly. You’ll be with a huge number of TS fans, so you’ll be ok.

Yes, I agree.

I'm confused about how many posters have asked questions. For the person wondering if her husband can go eat, sure. The options are limited around there. He'd have time to hop on the subway and go to a more fun neighborhood, then hop back on the subway to meet you after the concert.

It's just so much time to kill in a desolate stadium neighborhood.
