Trop now charging $10 for parking

[DrewOnTilt]

WTF? When did this change happen? All parking in AC used to be $4... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] not that I'm cheap, but the Trop's garage ain't worth ten bucks...

I haven't been over there since they opened the addition--is this still the same ridiculously cramped garage as before?

Actually the Trop did it right this time, the garage is nice (and doesn't smell like piss, as the old one did). The whole place got a makeover, even their staff. The Quarter has truly helped them regain footing. The only problem they will have is the competition from the other rooms doing renovations. Resorts has a new section opening now (I saw the ads on taxis in NY but it escapes me what it is called), and of course there is the the Showboat expansion this summer.

Used to be that during major events at the trop and busy weekends they would state that the charge was 10 bucks but if you showed your players card the rate was 4 bucks. Perhaps this is the change u saw????

Can you just park somewhere free and walk? These are the type of expenses I havent calculated in, and I am cheep!

If you don't mind parking on the streets in crappy neighborhoods, then yes. I have parked at the meters before and have only once gotten ticketed.

If you are that cheap, and I am, simply go to Harrahs or Showboat (with a players card) drive through the parking garage which is free and get a receipt which any AC casino will honor. Note that Borgata will not give you a receipt if you are a Black Label card holder which receives free parking.
One thing I did learn last week was that the parking receipt transfer expires at 6:00 am the following day. So this will only work if you are leaving the parking deck before 6:00 am or if they collect the ticket and/or payment upon entry such as Ceasars, Sands, Trump.

They charged me $4 yesterday with my poker card.
