🚀 MATCHDAY UBER/LYFT SURVIVAL HACK (DESTINATION)

How to beat the Surge Pricing at BC Place (Vancouver):

Pacific Boulevard is completely locked down by transit police post-match, meaning your Uber driver literally cannot reach Gate G. Walk 3-4 blocks north up into the downtown grid toward Robson Street or Georgia Viaduct area hotels before calling your ride.

Official Gate Drop-off Area: The designated rideshare pickup zone is systematically located along Pacific Boulevard near Gate G.
