No Problems Seen In Traffic, Parking

Published: February 2, 2009

Getting to the big game wasn't a problem, and neither was parking, provided fans were willing to shell out $20 to $100.

In the hours before the game, major thoroughfares around Raymond James Stadium were clear of any traffic headaches.

Traffic was light on Interstate 275, State Road 60 and Hillsborough Avenue but picked up near the stadium as fans circled looking for parking deals.

The game proved to be an opportunity for entrepreneurs such as Raja Patel, part-owner of a Shell gas station at Osborne Avenue and Dale Mabry Highway, where spots went for $50. That included a ride to the stadium.
