any idea when the start time is for the Samples concert on Saturday 25? I don’t see a start time. thanks
Parking scam! Although the event itself was fine, and the Samples were amazing as always, obviously the South Broadway Mile was teaming with the local tow companies. The website advertised that over 150 local businesses were offering free parking -we were towed from the South Broadway Mile business of Mattress King and Smashburger-1 block from the event. As I stood in the parking lot with my two infants and preschooler at 9:30pm waiting for my husband to return with our car, I watched two other cars get towed out of the same lot and more tow trucks cruising the area then I have ever seen. When I contacted the SBM group they took over two weeks to respond and said they were only able to arrange a few parking lots not the 150 advertised. So our “free concert” cost us almost $300. I guess they’re not too interested in encouraging people to come to their businesses. I know we won’t be returning.
