Wings Game Parking?
Heading down to watch the Wings play Friday...anyone have the 411 on parking? Thinking about dinner here & riding the shuttle over but open to ideas! Thanks
Hell is there even parking at the pub on game nights?
Thank you everyone for your advice!

There is parking in that vicinity. Will have to pay.

You're having dinner at the Shillelagh? Really? That place has smelled like vomit and stale beer for decades.

McShanes and Nemo's in Corktown offer parking (usually free street or lot parking) and shuttles, usually. I see lots of wings jerseys in that area for the shuttle or walking over lately.

I've taken the Nemo's shuttle several times to Comerica Park.
Nemo's, just a couple minutes walk from the corner of Michigan and Trumbull, is a fun place to gather and drink before and after Tigers games. Lots of wonderful history in that building, especially Tigers stuff dating back to the start of the franchise.
Never have done that for a Wings or Lions game, but I'm pretty sure it's available.

Yeah it runs for wings and lions.
$3 a person for the shuttle. Nemos parking lot is torn up right now so they're using the one across from it on the other side of Michigan Ave if you end up going there OP.

There are a couple structures downtown that charge btwn 10-20ish for the whole night.

Hey, park your ass in front of the television for an evening with these Wings.

And afterward, in your 8-track:

Call Harry's on Cass to see if they run a shuttle. Less crowded. Fewer jabronis.
Also try Casey's or McShanes. I think McShanes is owned by a Michigan alum.

Hope to keep early season success going.
Enjoy the game!

Let's tie this thing up. Been a good game so far.
October 16th, 2017 at 10:01 PM ^
save that money for Dough Louis Arena, so it can be reinvested in better players
October 16th, 2017 at 10:37 PM ^
I didn't even know they served food.
October 16th, 2017 at 11:22 PM ^
They actually serve a good burger and fries
October 16th, 2017 at 10:20 PM ^
Ugh. Tried to get too fancy instead of hammering it.

Can reserve parking using the District of Detroit app at different locations, or can park at Motorcity Casino for free and take a shuttle.

There is a parking structure 10 steps away from the LCA entrance but it's $40. I just coughed it up because I wanted to get in the place and check it out. Structure entrance is on the Fisher Service Dr.

couldn't you park for free in the MGM casino and take the Q line or walk to the stadium from downtown
October 17th, 2017 at 12:07 AM ^
Lots of people do it. It’s only 10 mins away. And free.
October 16th, 2017 at 11:18 PM ^
Off of Woodward in midtown that you can park for free/meters. North of LCA a block or two. Safe area and your car will be fine. Or the casino and shuttle.
Old Shellaleigh is good for drinking, but I wouldn't recommend food there. If you want a sport bar-type place to get food, go to McShanes in corktown. They shuttle you to the stadium. They also have possibly the best wings in metro Detroit, their mac and cheese is unreal, too.
Sweetwater tavern downtown has some good wings, too. Shit, now I want wings.

Is the same as a “Michigan bar in (city)” - google it bro
October 17th, 2017 at 1:03 AM ^
Took the Detroiter Bar shuttle over.
Including parking it was $10 and supported some good businesses that are definitely hurt by the move.

from Hooters
Go Blue ... Go Wings@

I went to a Piston Preseason game, and I parked across from Cass Tech on Cass for free and walked to the stadium.
October 17th, 2017 at 7:19 AM ^
I’ll be there
October 17th, 2017 at 7:27 AM ^
They have good food. Then you have an option of their shuttle or the Q line there and back. Plenty of parking around there too. Go Wings!
October 17th, 2017 at 7:23 PM ^
This post made no sense
October 17th, 2017 at 8:10 PM ^
I’ll be there Friday as well. No clue where imma park. But I’m not spending $40 at the structure.
