We ultimately decided not to go to any Spring Training games, so I wasn’t going to bother to even mention baseball here. I’ve got March Madness, I don’t have time for baseball! But then I opened today’s Washington Post and saw this: “[tag]Nationals[/tag] Offer Parking for Disabled – With Nearby Lots in High Demand, Details on Handicapped Spaces Are Scarce”
I’d heard there was a handicapped parking kerfluffle going on. The Post is reporting that the rather vague options the stadium offers include: parking five blocks away and taking a shuttle, paying a premium for a handicapped space ($35), or, if one has the luxury of being driven around by someone else, being dropped off.
I don’t yet see any details at all posted on the Nationals website.
You posted this just to piss me off, didn’t you??????
I’ll bet there are plenty of very close VIP spots to be had.
And though the woman says they’ll have a complaint number of spaces, there’s no indication of whether the spaces will be in a complaint location. Seems not to me.
Great, now my dreams of moving to the suburbs where I can get around more easily are being dashed by the minute!
BTW, what are you doing April 11 & 12?
That stadium is right in the middle of a downtown neighborhood. They knew there wasn’t adequate parking. Period. This is just the icing on the cake.
BTW, you’re moving out to farm country, its going to be sooo green acres. Heh.
p.s. I don’t know, what am I doing april 11 and 12th?
My husband will be in California. We could get into some trouble together.
Hmmm. This is promising. I have company from SF the week before, but want to visit you in April anyway…..
I feel like we’re making a date on a Myspace page, even though I’ve never seen one.
Just for the sheer awkwardness of the impending comment – I would like to point out that I will not be doing anything on April 11th. April 12th I will be hanging out with “slow dance” Frank.
Hmmm. That *was* one of the weekends I’d checked airfares to fort myers, since it seems to be easier to go from DC to ft myers than to go from Leesburg. And faster. Go figure.
But I think New York is more manageable that weekend. But more on all this in email…
