Gold 1 garage...anyone have experiences there

[ratking17]

I am thinking of doing that...obbiously no tailgating but how is traffic before and after games getting out for anyone with experiences there last year. I am wondering if from a time perspective which is faster. I need Monroeville turnpike access and usually I park downtown and ride the t. If parking there saves me 20 mins, it might be worth the extra money for someone like me that has a 4 hr drive.

I love it but you're right...no tailgating. Convenient location to hit up a tailgate or restaurant. Traffic is no issue. The line for the garage flows smoothly and I take 376 E towards Monroeville when leaving. I bought this location again this year.

Do you think it's faster than t to downtown?

I called but ughh. It is 120 plus 250 extra on top of panther club donation. I would spend the 120 to park instead of downtown but not 370 total...

Who gets the money from the $370?

 

[ratking17]

I assume pitt gets the 250

 

[LivinWell]

No the $120 ticket turns to $250

 

[ratking17]

So is it 250 total?

 

[LivinWell]

That's my understanding. Also, I made my Panther Club contribution back in December for 2018 so they told me the price increases I.e., parking from $120 to $250 would not take place until 2019. They can't charge $370, that's over $60 per game. I'm certain it's $250 total.

I park in the Gold 1 Garage. I find it really easy to get in and out to the parkway relatively quickly. I renewed for this year for $120 for the season.
