    Belmont Parking

    Anyone have any advice/what to expect stories for parking at the Belmont on Saturday? Took the train in a few years ago but have never driven. Fearing the worst...

    Thanks - I'm hoping to be there around that time. Guessing that the drive home after the race will be the tougher part

    Getting out has always been twice as hard as getting in. It is absolute mayhem at the end of the day. The train is the way to go, but if you really want to drive, throw yourself a mini-tailgate party after the races (but no alcohol, please) to let the crowd thin out before you jump into the fray.
