And I'm telling you from experience, that has not proven true at Arrowhead despite it being their stated intent. Even at the prepaid only gate. There has been no efficiency increase with prepaid parking at Arrowhead. The parking experience has gotten progressively worse since their switch to pushing prepaid general admission parking. In theory it should help. In actuality it clearly hasn't.

I only go to one game every year, maybe 2. It's a 3 hour trip that starts at 5am for me from Omaha. I have to drive back after the game. SO...I go for the whole experience, tailgate and all. Last year I prepaid, I'll do it again this year. But man...it's just becoming a pain in the ass.

What is it that they're doing at the gate with prepaid tickets that's taking as long as running a credit card?

That's maybe 40% of the problem.

The rest is the cluster**** of trying to route cars all around the complex once they're in.

They get their clock management straight from Big Red.

Sure, I can buy that. My point is mainly that I have trouble figuring out a reason that the prepaid tickets can possibly be SLOWER than cash/card transactions. I certainly have no trouble believing that parking in general is a cluster**** and that the prepaid tickets just aren't really able to make much of a difference.

It is the 70" Samsung for me. NFL getting to pricey for the workin' man.

This is primarily to push season ticket purchasing. You get a better parking deal if you get season tickets.

I honestly don't see it working. I know single game tickets will definitely take a hit though.

I had two chances last ,year for two free regular season tickets for a game each, and I passed. Wasn't even worth the time, effort, or parking fee for me.

I'm probably just getting older but I value my cash and time a lot more these days.
