    I imagine the Uber line and surge charges will be insane. $1.25 each way for the train.

    este.  Uber on the way there shouldn't be more of a hassle than any other outing, with more traffic.  Uber on the way out would be a beating - designated p/u location, 1000 people trying at once, etc.  Train will be a shitshow, but it's a short ride.  Another tip: if the northbound line is too bananas, you can get on the train southbound and stay on.  It's only one stop south before the train comes back north 

  2. As has been noted, ZaZa is the closest nice hotel to the stadium, and is convenient to the train.  You may be a little crowded going southbound, depending on the time.  You will definitely be packed in when leaving, but you will appreciate that ZaZa is only about three or four stops from the stadium going.  MF Sushi is nearby and is extraordinary.  

  3. Truth BBQ at high noon today and the wait took an hour.  I would say that it was worth it, as the brisket and ribs were outstanding and the sausage was serviceable, but with Feges next door to the office, and the precision-machine efficiency of their line, it isn't reasonable as a regular lunch option.  I'm sure they will trim the wait time as they get their sea legs, because they've only got one cutting station running, and by the looks of it, they are equipped for three.  All in all I'd say it's an 8-9/10, and will almost certainly break the curse on that location.  And that pit room.  MOG

     

  4. Got some buddies egging me out of retirement to run the Marine Corps marathon this year.  Any of y'all done it before?  I've heard good things.   I'm supposed to train for a century ride in September, so that could make things interesting.

  5. Just got back from four days in Charlotte.   Stayed at an Air BNB in NoDa.  Drank copious crafties at Salud Cerveceria.  Many crafties at various breweries across town: Catawba, Free Range, Heist, Legion, Resident Culture.  Cool little town.  We didn't venture very far.
