Hammered a Lot Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Where did you park? How much sooner are you getting home? It seems the Southwestern Blvd area is getting all the parking because of the Abbott Road blockade. Beside Hammer's Lot being the place to be gameday all my neighbors are getting screwed. One guy usually gets 50 cars average, opener 9 cars, Pats game 6 cars. When the Erie County Police put up the MISLEADING and CONFUSING Abott Road closure sign in the wrong place Abbott and Big Tree), my friend tried to tell the EC Police where the sign was supposed to go, he was threaten with arrest! They even refused to give him their badge number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBD Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Not good leaving ECC and heading down Southwestern towards Milestrip, probably taking an extra 20 minutes to get home than usual. However this could be attributed to two sellout crowds with everyone in their seats until the very end of the game.

cmjoyce113 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We park in lot A and stayed until after the game. We live in Rochester and I was home by 5:45. So not bad for us since we got in the car and were driving while most people were still walking to their cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonramz Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I park at the big lot on the corner of southwestern and Abbott, right near the old 7-11 that is some kinda quickie mart now. And dare I say... traffic has been better?! I understand the abbott rd closure thing has been bad for you, but I have nothing but good things to say about it as far as traffic and walking to the stadium are concerned... seems a lot safer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or hire one of those teenagers that stand outside Little Ceasers Pizza trying to get people to stop and buy their "Hot-n-Ready" pizzas, to hold your sign.

Hard for me to speak to the traffic as first time in this lot!, but I think it was about normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
