However, this now makes me really really really wish I was going to MLG Providence. Too bad I'm poor.  Oh well TL IRC will have to suffice. | ||

Cheap alternative is to park at the Burger King & IHOP parking lot and walk 5-10 minutes there. 445 Promenade Street Providence, RI 02908 | ||

What are the chances of you getting reported for doing this? I used to park in an empty lot for a long time, but one early morning the angry owner stalked me down and gave me hell for it lol. | ||

I live in Cranston and their is also alot of to do outside of providence. since we are so small its only a 10 minute commute. any people coming from a landlocked section of hte world make sure to stop by our beaches we are called the ocean state for a reason =D Newport is nice and my GFs dad owns a resturant if people are interested ill get him to hook it up. Newport is a little far though from the event. El Tapatio is an excellent authentic mexican restaurant outside the city so its much quieter. As the OP said. Thayer Street is jampacked with fun things to do/eat. Ben n Jerrys, a Hookah Bar, Brown, GREAT PIZZA. GREAT BURRITOS! | ||

I wouldn't ask the manager. That will just make paint a big tow me sign on your car. It's a very big lot and I've parked there many times. I grew up a few blocks from there and have lived there for 12 years. It won't be a problem if it's only 5-10 people taking up their spot. The lot can hold quite a bit and there is also a lot behind for RI Blood Bank. Be courteous and buy something when you come back to your car though. If you're really scared, you could arrange a car pool and then split the parking fee equally with everyone. That would be only 5 bucks a person for the whole day. (This will be harder if you're in the group of gamers that don't shower.) | ||

Lobster rolls are trickier. Almost everyone will tell you to go to someplace in a small town outside the city to some random shack near the Ocean (e.g., Jim's Dock in Jerusalem) - and they're probably right. | ||

A good idea is if you plan on parking there, let's message one central person on here or exchange contacts. People can meetup after the show and walk back to their cars at the same time to make it safer. (Although, it's pretty safe. I wouldn't want someone from out of state or the country to wander by themselves at night.) If you think this is a good idea or not, reply on the post. | ||
