    When everyone tries to leave at once it’s just about the worst driving scenario possible.

    That gives me a notion. Maybe it’s possible to get team owners on board supporting public transit, by pointing out that the reason people don’t stay for the whole game is to avoid traffic.

      Nah team owners don’t care. They’re only making money from the tv deal, concessions and gate fees. They cut off concessions before the end of the game, tickets are bought before the game and the TV deal doesn’t matter what traffic looks like. There’s no advantage for owners to keep people at the games longer.

        Depends… people might buy more food if they stay longer and there doesn’t need to be a designated driver so mkre people can buy the overpriced beer.
