LETTER: Garth Brooks concert highlights Allegiant Stadium parking woes

Updated July 15, 2021 - 4:55 pm

Members of the public were told to park elsewhere, take a cab or Uber or just walk from your hotel. The hundreds — if not thousands — of people who had to walk in the sweltering heat would beg to differ. Some will not return for events because of the problems.

So when will the county want the taxpayers to start paying for parking improvements for the stadium? Remember, it will pay for itself.
