    Any advice from the locals on where to park that day? I'll be doing the Indians vs. Tigers baseball game too so I'd be up for parking at either place if it's cheaper.

    there are lots all over charging anywhere from $25-10.

    If you can, google maps East 6th street. It's a street full of meters where you can park for free. Few people know this and it's a short walk to the Jake. There is also another street next to the key tower. They don't ticket meters on the weekends so you can park for free.

    Parking in Cleveland is not a problem. Ironically that is the problem with Cleveland and why most out of towners find it ugly. Back in the day when metro Cleveland was booming (I believe it was the 5th largest city in the USA), they were looking for a way to get more people downtown to shop in the stores, so they tore down a bunch of buildings and made them surface lots. Now Cleveland is stuck with a ton of surface lots that kill the urban landscape.

    Thanks for the info! $10-$25 I don't have to spend on parking is $10 - $25 more that I can spend on beer! :D

    we're really open to doing whatever. I am a hockey fan though, so this could be interesting.

    cool, well then if there is no kareoke, what downtown bar should be go to? Let's pick something

    of course, the Wings need to win game 3 or 4 to force game 5

    anyone else want to join us if there is no kareoke meet-up?

    if karaoke falls through for you guys there is a new bar downtown called the Caddyshack lounge that is a bar with golf simulators and games in it. It's pretty cool. Just opened. Nothing like getting wasted and playing a round of golf. It's right next to the Radison on Prospect across from the Q

    ugh. Just saw that the RRHOF closes at 5:30. That dents my plans for Saturday for sure.

    I'm pretty sure Corner Ally airs UFC fights (not 1005 sure but I've watched one there before) also the Winking Lizard. I don't know if any bars will be airing the Hockey game, but if you ask them they will turn it on I'm sure it won't be a problem. Cleveland isn't a big hockey town so there isn't any giant watch parties, but if you ask them to turn it on I'm sure they will. I know Flannery's on 4th and Prospect had them on last year, and they always have European Soccer games on and that is a sport that involves getting something in a goal...so try there.

    So is anyone trying to meet up before Indians vs. Tigers game to sit together?

    I'd really like to see this and since I'm rolling solo until I meet my ticket buddy later so sitting with some other fans would be good.

    Can someone from Cleveland step up to the plate for this? (pun intended).

    As in, pick a gate or entrance, a time, etc?

    I've never even been to Cleveland before so I'm not the one who's able to do it.

    Game time is 1:05. I wonder what time we have to be there? Noon?

    I don't know jack squat about the area or anything. But I know my hubby really wants to go. I feel like time is a-ticking and I don't have plans on Saturday night yet either.

    I am horrible at planning but we do get in town on Friday. We could probably scope the area out and figure out a meeting place for Sunday and post information back here.

    What does everyone/anyone think of that for baseball on Sunday?

    I havent decided for sure if I am going to go to the game. Do you get in Saturday or Sunday to Cleveland? It depends on how much drinking Sat night brings and if its warm and sunny, that may require me to avoid sitting in the Sun

    By the way, is there any update on Kareoke? Is this a go?

    If not, anyone want to meet up at a bar and drink, was thinking the Winking Lizard or Flannery's around the Arena/Jakob's Field, PM me if interested
