🚀 MATCHDAY UBER/LYFT SURVIVAL HACK (DESTINATION)

How to beat the Surge Pricing at Levi's Stadium (San Francisco):

Red Lot 7 gets terribly gridlocked post-match. Walk across the pedestrian bridge toward Tasman Dr or directly into the Hilton Santa Clara lobby. Ordering your ride from the hotel bypasses the massive stadium surge wall and gives your driver an easy point to meet you.

Official Gate Drop-off Area: Red Lot 7 is the primary designated rideshare pickup point outside the security perimeter.
