This is so sad. I hope I don't cry.

There's going to be a major rally in downtown St. Louis this Sat, 3-28 starting at 11:00am. Allow time for traffic to get to the Dome from wherever you're driving from.

Unbelievable that the city issued a demonstration permit for the same day that the Hawks, Cards, and Blues are all downtown.

Re: OT: Traffic nightmare getting to the Dome
I know right, who would imagine high traffic in a major downtown?! What an inconvenience! Someone really needs to think of the comfort of the twice yearly suburban visitor and his reliance on a quick escape back to their safe suburban sprawl. It certainly makes me big mad!

Take Metrolink, It's quick, easy, hassle free, and a lot cheaper than parking. Wherever you live, drive to a Metrolink station with free parking, which is most of them, and sit back and relax.

Re: OT: Traffic nightmare getting to the Dome
If you live in West St. Louis County near Manchester Road, you can ride the Metro bus for $1.00 to the MetroLink station in Maplewood. There are dozens of metro bus stops on Manchester Road from Wildwood to Maplewood. Last year, I started riding the bus then taking the metrolink to downtown St. Louis for sporting events and concerts. A round-trip ticket for bus and metrolink rides is $7.00.
