    Oh and.. Fuck the people mover. Only get on that POS if you have to. Should probably have your mode of transportation squared away as well (ie: rental or friend). The bus system is fucking absurd and the people mover is a joke.

    I'm sure some other people can add to the list but those are a few of my favorite locales.

    • Those are all located downtown BTW - if you get outside of the immediate downtown area there are lots of things to do in the burbsd_rek
