Parking in Charm City

by Erik Lane 13. January 2007 13:29

I was warned about the parking situation in Baltimore.  I'm staying downtown so I was also warned about how bad parking gets on a Raven's game day.  I was told,  for a Raven's game day, that I should just plan on not using my car or I would never find a place to park.  Today was one of those days and I had been warned.

I went out and when I got back, about 1:30, the streets were already packed with cars (game started at 4:30).  I drove around for about 45 minutes looking and looking and finally found a lone spot that had a 2 hour meter.  So, on top of having to walk a half mile just get back I had to set a reminder to go and feed the meter again in two hours.

The Ravens lost so the football season is over now but I should've listened.  I guess I now understand why Frank Costanza, from Seinfeld, won't go out for weeks when he has a good parking spot.  :-)

ROFL - you are so funny.  I guess that's one way to get in your exercise.
