What kills me at Izod is they charge you $12 to park and they make you drive all the way to the top of the parking deck and force you to hike all the stairs. And all the lower levels are empty.

At Disneyland they charge you $11 and give you an escalator. And you are there all day, not 3 hours.
</div>

I have never had that problem at Izod before, they let me park where I want in the parking deck.

Hell you have not been to my job have you? For $15 they make you park all the way on the otherside of the parking lot , sometimes they will give you a tram to pick you up, but not always.

That's because your personalized BOONE plates makes them think you're Josh!

Funny you are not. They let me park my Cobalt any place I want ( as long as it is a legal spot)

Yeah I am so rich I drive a fully loaded Brand new Chevy Cobalt.

Maybe the Meadowlands is just nicer to people who drive brand new loaded Cobalt's?

Or maybe they are nice to you, because they don't wanna be accused of discrimation against homo-sexuals and retards?

Whatever you say Poppy.

Josh Boone, it isn't unwarranted complaining. Parking and access to the CAA/Izod Center has been a huge complaint for years. Most fans have to go through that freaking tunnel and are forced to park further away from the arena. Transportation, location, and access are huge factors for an arena. CAA/Izod Center fail miserably in all 3 areas. There is no public transportation and it is in a freaking swamp.

And you are telling us to stop bitching about parking and walking 5-10 minutes in a tunnel? How about you stop bitching about trains, which are more accessible for people and cheaper than parking? How about admitting that the Prudential Center is a superior arena in every facet compared to the Izod, and the Nets not moving there is illogical?

You know what? Don't answer the above questions, since you love to side with illogic. And I sure as hell don't want to see more poor spelling than I have to.

 

[#1_Josh_Boone_Fan]

Wait where did I say the nets should not move to Newark?

I beilve I said theu should.

he reminded me of uncle ruckus from the boondocks, except opposite views</div>


Rock is in one of the best parts of Newark, if not the best.

Easy to get to, nice. Parking is a pain and the Traffic cops are jerk's ( the one said get hit by a car see if i care on route 21)

But the place is great, nice, safe area, easy to get it to.

It beats anything Crooklyn can give.

Oh yeah, did't you get a parking ticket too in Newark?
</div>


Sorry I'll take downtown brooklyn over downtown Newark any day. The NYC subway is a lot easier to take than any form of transportation in New Jersey. I live in staten island and it doesn't make a difference to me if the nets are in NJ or Brooklyn since it take nearly the same time to get to both locations. Getting to brooklyn is always easier than getting to Newark no matter how you look at it.
