Getting out

  1. Ride the shuttle. Free for ticketed fans from Lots S, X, Z, Met Park and Old Cypress. It restarts after the game and runs for 1 hour.
  2. Take Gameday Xpress. JTA's last bus back leaves 1 hour after the game, from where it dropped you off.
  3. Rideshare from Beaver St. Exit on the west side and walk to the pickup near Lot Z. Taxis wait there too.

Skip this: Drive out at the final whistle. Lots stay open 2 hours. Westbound traffic may get sent to the Acosta Bridge, so let the first wave fight about it.
