I'm just letting you know now. If you don't have VIP parking it may take you at least 2 and 1/2 hours to get out of the venue, if your heading toward Lake Geneva it could be longer. Alpine Valley is by far the worst venue to get out of. Good Luck!

I have VIP parking...does that mean there is a separate exit??
My wife and I will be arriving late on Saturday. Our flight lands in MKE at 2:40 pm, (if they dont back it up again...) I dont know yet if I should stop in New Berlin to check in at our room, or hustle our asses down to the show... We have reserved on Saturday too, so we are hoping this all falls into place with the help you locals are providing! Thanks for all your tips.
Any routes we NEED to avoid enroute? I dont even know if the rental will have GPS yet... :?:
as others have said, post tailgate party will be raging. other option is to walk over to AV resort and drink at the bar w/red mosquito and 50 other PJ fans. worst option is to get in car and be pissed off for 1-2+ hours waiting it out to get home.
if post partying is not your deal, best bet is to park outside of av on private lot as supposedly these willl pop up and provide an easier exit, just a longer haul in/out of venue...

It says online that the Country Inn is about 3 miles away, anyone know if it's walkable, meaning a pretty straight shot that's not on an expressway (obviously cos you aren't allowed to walk there..)?
I was thinking the same thing as I am staying there as well. But a couple of locals have told me that it WILL NOT be an easy walk...country roads, no streetlights/sidewalks. I am still considering it...but it'd be nice if the Country Inn organized a shuttle or if people staying there w/o the travel package can get on the travel package shuttle for a price.
eh, I walk 3 miles every night thru rocky terrain and un-lit areas..no biggie..
Maybe we can get together, get a couple others to join us, and all walk it in a group..at least it'd be safer..I got a pack of 8 flashlights I can bring LoL
That might be a good idea...there's always safety in numbers! I'm hoping the hotel possibly does a shuttle as well....I'm going to ping them again as it gets closer. Will keep you posted.
I'm still debating whether to walk it or just take the van and hang out a while after both nights..maybe I can give a ride to a few folks going my way..

Are they
A. Going to tow your car and send you to jail?
Or
