Magical 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 That sucks... but I've never heard of a free parking lot downtown for Magic games. I usually park on Orange Ave. which is free after 6:00pm. Next time you should make sure you see a sign that says it is actually free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magic01 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 the sign you saw was probably for free shuttle not free parking. there is no free parking lot downtown. everyone either charges or you get towed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnyhoops 12 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 Sorry about your luck. There's no such thing as free parking during big events downtown. If it sounds too good to be true, then it usually is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
