heads up for the RISAA show

[Adam_777]

I park in the mall parking lot and walk through the tunnel down the stairs through the hotel and across the street.I don't camp at the show so it works for a couple hours in and out.Haven't trucked a rod through the mall yet either but I wouldn't hesitate if the right rod ended up in my hands for the right price.

Picking the boy up from school and heading to the show, should be there by 3:30. Hope its not too bad at that time. Usually hit the parking garage and don't have any trouble as long as you're there early.

i suggest anyone that is going, park in the mall. it is ur safest bet and a short walk across the sky bride and through the westin into the convention center. parking in the mall is the cheapest parking in providence.

Mall parking secure? Providence has a high crime rate and one of the highest rates of car theft as well, correct? Heading down fairly early Saturday and was already concerned about parking. Name of mall? Not familiar with the area since the last time I was there was in 1983 for a Kinks concert.

its providence place mall. the mall i would say is pretty dam secure. these days they have the security guards cruising around on their segways. just like any place you go tho dont leave anything sitting around in the car especially a gps or even the mount on the window for that matter.
