    Why even bother? That would suck if I had to make a 1am flight about an hr after the show ends. I wouldn't even enjoy the show, bugging out if I'm gonna make the flight. Take the day off and enjoy the show. You're going for a show, enjoy the show.

    Try using Uber.

    No reservations allowed but they are generally quicker than a cab. I used one in Denver today when I arrived And it took 3 min to pick me up at the airport. Airport to Pepsi center will cost about $42

    No, you can't reseve an Uber.. install the app, setup your profile/credit card, etc now, so when you're ready to leave, hit the app, let it find you, then hit reserve car and walk out of the arena. As soon as I hit reserve car and it assigns one to me, you'll have a button that says his name and "contact driver." Text him and say "Pepsi Center, gate " and he'll pull up right there for you. I would assume there'll be lots of Uber cars in the area around the time the show is ending so getting one shouldn't be an issue...

    Also the good thing about Uber is that when you get to your destination, just jump out of the car and go.. don't have to say anything to the driver (other than thanks, have a nice night, etc...) Payment is all done through the Uber app and there's no tipping, so he'll hit "end ride" when you get there and it'll pop up on your Uber app within 10 minutes, hopefully while you're waiting to board your flight.

    Hope this helps.
    Your right on, it worked perfectly for me at Denver airport today

    Agreed. I've run through Denver to make a connection, and it's not fun. Admitted I'm out of shape....

    I totally agree...

    Denver traffic after an event is horrible. No way you make it unless you leave before the show is over and after coming all that way for a show I know I wouldn't want to miss a second of it! ;)

    Less than 50% chance. dIA is far from downtown and once you get there and go through security you have to take a train to other terminals. I go there often and it's kind of a pain in the ass (though a nice airport)
    I'm flying up shortly and anticipate tonight will be a long show given the end of the tour. I wouldn't be shocked if they play till midnight

    I have no idea, but love that you have the balls and try and pull it off :))

    Have fun, enjoy the show and safe travels

    So - with the votes fairly evenly for and against, we are all hoping you post afterward to let us know if you made it or not.

    I'm here at place called euclid, going to wish list spot soon.
    I decided to take the 6am flight based on the responses not the 1255 after show. Appreciate all the feedback.
    This is 1 year from Philly show last year, 24 years from their off ramp in Sea and last of the mini tour. I didn't want to ruin what i expect to be a special night.
    Best fans in world!
