I was at the Saturday's session of the Detroit Grand Prix yesterday and I was impressed. You see, I've spent about 4 years living in Melbourne (also a major sporting city). While there is an impressive variety of sporting events held in the city of Melbourne - none of those I have attended was as well organized (those of you who lived there - you'll know what I mean). Car parking is usually a major hassle especially for events that are held in the infamous Melbourne Park and MCG (and if it rains... you're on your own). Well, I thought the Grand Prix in Detroit was going to be the same... I was so wrong!
Carparking was a breeze and there are plenty of road signs along the way to ensure that even the most unattentive driver can find his way into a designated carpark. Once you alight from the vehicle, you'll be greeted by friendly event workers and ushered into a waiting shuttle. In all, it took me no more than 5 mins to get into the shuttle after alighting from my vehicle - attaboy!
At Belle Isle where the Grand Prix was held, there were proper sign boards to guide you to the grand stands. If in doubt there are 5-10 event workers just round the corner to answer your every questions. There were many organizer tents at the Grand Prix ground - something for every age group. There was also a stage erected for live performance... if you get tired of watching the races, enough some music at the ground... There were also plenty of free gifts given at the event - I got 3 free T-shirts, 7 lanyards and a pile of autographs from Indycars drivers. Perfect!
I was worried about getting back to my vehicle after the event ended - but, everything was so well organized! I got on the shuttle after less than 1 min waiting in line and was back into my vehicle in no time. Overall, it was a A+++ event! and good luck Chevy!
