We didn't make it. Driving from the south on I-35 around 9:30 the traffic from Southwest BLVD was slowed all the way back to 75th street. There was just no way we were going to make it and get anywhere near anything so just we got in the left lane and turned around when we could.
We saw maybe three or four buses the whole way who were coming from the Olathe shuttle area. There were tons of people there who didn't get to go because there just wasn't enough shuttles. Apparently people who got there at 9 am still didn't make it to the parade. Also, the shuttles were stuck in the same mess of traffic as everyone else so even the few who got on would have had basically no benefit to taking it because there was no shuttle lane. |

I heard about people not even making it down there on the shuttle after waiting. I got down "close" at 0900 at it was already jammed on the streets. The odd thing was so many were driving into it the whole walk. |

Just got back to Wichita. We got to Kemper around 9:45am, parked and the shuttle line was around the building so we just walked. Found a spot at 20th and Grand about 10 people back and got a glimpse and a few good pictures of most of the guys. Couldn't get over to Union Station after the parade, but made it back to the car just in time to listen to the rally on the way home. Totally worth it.

Awesome day
Did people really think they could just like show up? Ignorant |
Never use the shuttle system again in situations like this. Leaving was a disaster of epic proportions. I was expecting it to be bad but goddamn. Having 4 different locations all pick up at 16th and Wyandotte. Another 4 at Main and 27th. No way they could handle it all but at least have a goddamn cohesive plan.

I went and I will put this on my list to never do again unless I stay in KC the night before. Got to the Triangle around 9am and it was already backed up and saw a gigantic line at the Red Bridge shuttle and I thought there is no way I will get close to downtown so I decided to park there and take the shuttle in. Probably should have drove in because the shuttle was a cluster**** and didn't get downtown until noon and it took 4 hours to get back to Red Bridge road.
Then you couldn't really see anything or hear anything so it was basically a complete waste of time and I would have rather watched it at home. |
