Re: ***RUN FOR THE BORDER!! - Official Chula 2014 Thread***
Hey party people, have a great show. Wanted to drop in and offer some tips from someone that has done a show or two here. This show is on a Friday, and traffic will be a bitch. Went to every Chula show from 1999-2011, and sat in some brutal traffic coming down from Orange County. The locals in the thread can verify this, but from my past experience, give yourself time to get down there if you are not already staying over from Thursday night. Adam has a great back route that he has shared in past years to get people around having to come in on Main St. off the freeway.
Also getting to the venue early will allow you to, in theory, pick what lot you want to park in. The later you show up, the worse your options. If you end up to the lot below or to the west (towards the water park) of the venue, expect a pretty long wait to get out. The tailgate spot that Adam mentioned is in the lot above the venue. Nice dirt lot, port-o-potties if needed too. Easy access cross the street to the gates to get in. Also the tour buses cruise right past the upper dirt lot on the way out. So if you make it back to your car after the show, you may catch a Carter wave on their way north to Irvine.
Miss this venue, was always my hope they would ditch Irvine/LA and give Chula 2 nights. Should be a lovely summer night under the stars for some great music.
