Any Rail lines, bus system (greyhound) near by and that can drop you off near the stadium? In California.....we have the greyhound bus system, Amtrak train lines.....I can go from northern california (San Francisco) to southern california (los angeles/san Diego)...in fact the Amtrak train has a stop behind the Angels stadium! In San Francisco...Bart (bay area rapid Transport system) can drop you within walking distance of the San Francisco stadium or drop you off in front of the Oakland A's stadium! Best regards, David

Eh, if you wanna walk a mile+ sure. If you're taking BART to a Giants game, just get of at Embarcadero, hop on one of the 5000 muni trains they have dedicated to the game and ride it straight to the gate. I once saw this crazily dressed couple both had big orange mohawks. They werewalking up to the gate when we was getting off of MUNI train at the gate. They got onto the BART train right before us in Pleasenton. We just missed it cuz one of our party was in the bathroom, but we got to the gate at the same time as they did.

Do you not have any family or friends nearby who can go with you and drive?

Nice. Got some good advice and a few laughs.
Thanks for the tip. This was the type of response I was looking for.
Never knew about Über. Thanks for the heads up.
Besides, my fastball topped out at 80.

38.1 miles should only take me 12.5 hours according to Google Maps. Best I've done previously is 96 miles in 6 days.
If only it were that easy. This may help clarify things for you a bit. A San Francisco take on Arlington?s lack of public transportation | Texas Rangers Blog
I suppose it does...especially if you would contribute something useful or humorous.:lol:
This might work. I just need to remember to shave.
Anybody have a horse for rent? I'm a little concerned about the 10.9 mile stretch on 377.
Currently it's a bull market on horse-drawn covered wagons. Best I could find was $299.99 for a one day rental, but only if I included oats. Pawned the chaps, spurs, and 10-gallon hat to purchase a computer and "get all modernlike."
Jeep gave you a lemon. Picking me up, going to the ballpark, dropping me off, and returning home is about 180 miles. 2013 Jeep Wranglers have combined city/highway mileage of 18. If gas is 3.50/gallon (most stations well below that here currently), that's $35 for gas
Sadly, there is no Greyhound stop in Arlington. The only public transportation to that area starts service on the 19th, but has no return trips towards Dallas after 9:41. I'd like to see a whole game.

Mathematics strikes again!
Arlington Texas is the largest city in the country without any public transportation. The last time I went to a Rangers game, it took us 2 hours from Dallas in rush hour (usually only takes 45 minutes to an hour at that time frame) to drive to the ball park as their was a soccer gold cup game at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. I would gladly take a train and walk a short distance to go the field rather than that driving. And for the World Series, when I went in 2010 and 2011 we learned we had to leave by 3 PM (yes 3 PM) for decent parking spaces for the 7 PM games. As you can tell, I'd rather go to the Frisco Roughriders, cheaper tickets, fun atmosphere and my partial plan with All you can eat and parking costs me $16.50 per game. in 2012, there were 4-5 players I saw which have been in the majors (or will be shortly) including Engel Beltre, Olt, Profar, Garcia and have also seen Kinsler, Martin and other prospects on the way up.
This was worth the 3 pages of crap. Lol

On a nice day (which is almost always in the City) I usually walk from the Embarcadero to the game, but take the Muni back. Lunch at Lefty O'Doul's first. Relaxing ride back to Dublin/Pleasanton and a 90 minute drive home. Going to an A's game is even easier - there's a station right outside the Mausoleum.

Yup sounds about right. The worst BART ride I ever had was for a Sunday 1:00 PM Giants day game in September.......
Both niners and raiders had home games. I was scared for my life and my privates.

All things considered, if you practice hard and play well, get drafted, work your way through the minors. Considering your fastball topped out at 80mph. You still can "get to" + "attend" and NEVER "PLAY WITH". There is plenty of room on their bench.
No kidding with all that research and calculating you would think he would find time to get a job and buy a car.

Are you a student at UNT? Sounds like you are pretty smart or have alot of time on your hands to figure all that out about my Jeep it has 33in tires and I drive fast so the mpg is a little less than 18-19 depending on how much driving in town you do.. Well it takes less than $60 to fill it up. The $15 was part of my profits from doing you a favor and letting you take me to a game. Still a good deal for you.
Best thing to do for a game is park at one of the area bars and take their buses/trolleys to a game. Arlington actually has a trolly system that picks up at several hotels etc. Pretty cool way to avoid driving around the ballpark or paying for parking,

You seriously don't know anyone at your college who has a car and would go to the game with you?
I'm not trying to be rude. It's just odd that you don't know anyone with a car at school.
