Parking at Providence Place Mall

1st and last time I'm going to this place (or at least parking in the garage, Dave and Busters was fun)
Paying to park blows waiting 20 minutes to get out of that parking lot realllllly blows

My buddy drove his scooter in and parked in the fish distributor next door. Had no problem getting home. That parking garage situation was the pits. There were some pretty funny goings on upstairs in the garage. The party almost started all over again waiting for the line to move.

I went down to pay and happened to stand in the line with the 2 attendants. I got the biggest laugh watching people at the automated payment machine (think Charlie Card kiosk).
They were down to their last dollar and the machine would keep spitting it back out, like the old Coke machines.
Our line moved twice as fast.
Once they allowed people out the back gates, it moved quickly.

My wife used the machine, all she had was a 20 so it gave her back 14 1 dollar coins. My daughter was going crazy in the car seat, so my wife took her for a walk, she called to tell me to pick them up in front of the Brewery. When I got to the back gate bthe cop tried to make me take a right and use the congress street exit. I let him have it, that was bs there was no reason for it. If they are smart they will work something out with the city, like a flat rate pay as you drive in, for the show for next year.

Should have just stayed for a beer and some tv in the artist's loft in the garage until the congestion cleared
