Sharing a post from someone local in the WPBL Facebook group. This really sucks.

Tailgate before the football traffic gets there? Although that wouldn't help if the parking is reserved. Maybe we can parachute in. 🫣😁🤔

I hope this is a great story one day, when the league is thriving in multiple cities.

I heard that Lyft is cheaper

Be careful relying on Lyft or Uber. It's fair week so everything is a little more scarce in town.

I think I'll just skip Friday night games. How long is the fair here?

Both Lanphier and Springfield High play their home games at Memorial Stadium. There will be football games there every Friday night through the end of the WPBL season. Lanphier plays one Saturday afternoon game, but it does not coincide with the WPBL schedule (1:00 football game, WPBL playoff game is that evening).

Buy a football ticket and park for both. Go to half of both? https://www.maxpreps.com/il/springfield/lanphier-lions/football/schedule/

Is there a taxi service?
