So to get a shuttle the way they do it is you have to pay for it the whole time. For example you can't just pay for them one way and then the other way.
So for baseball we would need the shuttle for five hours, three hours of game plus an hour on both sides for travel.
The cost is $560. If we have 14 people that is $40 each for round trip. Also we have to pay for the bus parking at the stadium which is $40. So that would be another 2-3$ each. If we had more people the cost per person would decrease. If we have less then it will go up.
The issue I have is I'd have to pay for the whole amount on my credit card and everyone would have to reimburse me. Honestly I'm leery of paying for it personally on my card without confirmation from everyone that they will be there. I just don't want to pay $600 out of pocket then only have 3 or 4 ppl show up. Then if we divided by 3 it would be $200 each!
So this may be a bad idea. I was told by a local last night that a cab is $30-40 each way and Uber is probably even cheaper and several people can go in one cab and split it. This way whoever wanted to go could just go in cabs and pay for their own and we'd have the exact number that we needed and I wouldn't have a shuttle waiting and have people not show.
My other concern is with the lovely rain that we've had here all week Id hate to pay and book a shuttle and then have it be rained out or delayed or have people decide that they want to cancel at the last minute if it's raining.
Also since I'm on a body farm tour friday which is supposed to get back here at 6:00 I'm concerned if we are late getting back that will impact our departure.
So at this point, I'm leaning toward scrapping the shuttle idea and just having anyone who decides to go self-cab or
Uber.
Unless everyone here replies and is really in favor of the shuttle and guarantees that they will be there then we could do it but I'm pretty leery currently. Let me know if you have any thoughts or ideas
Thanks!
