hardly anyone using the Hooters parking garage this last week, we always got a spot on floor 2 or 3, above valet
and it's 5 stories high and a short run across tropicana, at the light of course to the MGM

The traffic when there is a show in the MGM Grand arena is

horrible. The

crowds inside the arena can also be intense at a crowded show. I

just saw

Barbara Streisand (great!) - and with all the people, after the

show the crowd

wasn't even moving for 15 minutes.

So here is a suggestion: Park at Paris/Ballys or Flamingo Hilton

and ride

the monorail to and from the MGM Grand. (or park at LV Hilton or

whatever

casino is most convenient for you). You'll avoid the hideous

traffic around the

MGM, and on the strip, and the monorail ride itself takes about 5

minutes.

I agree about the traffic. NEVER park in the MGM parking garage.
I've found that parking in the NYNY garage to be the most efficient
location when attending large concerts or fights at MGM. A little
more walking than the monorail but you save that expense and the wait
time for it to arrive.
