点评:Never again! I’ve been to several performances at the Prudential Center and trying to get in and out of last night’s The New Edition, Boys to Men, and Toni Braxton concert was the worst! I live in New Jersey and arrived in Newark at 7:18 pm for the 8 pm concert. We were .3 miles or about 4 blocks from the Center when we hit gridlock. We were stuck on the same block for more than 30 min! There was a complete lack of urgency by the law enforcement and parking attendants to get ticket holders parked and into the concert. When we finally arrived at the garage where we’ve parked for other concerts (8:30 pm!) we couldn’t park there because it was ONLY for pre-pay. You would think the people directing traffic would communicate that to the drivers in the two lanes of traffic before you reached the entrance of the garage. We had to circle around the Center again only to enter the same deck from another block. We finally arrived at our concert seats at 9:20 pm! We were in traffic in Newark for 2 hours. Getting out of the deck was no better. We sat in traffic that didn’t move for an hour. The concert ended at 11:30 pm and we didn’t get home (40 min. away) until about 1:30 pm! Newark has to do better! It’s infrastructure and parking is not meant to support the almost 20,000 ticket holders of the Prudential Center. Our concert experience was ruined and I will not go back to the Prudential Center. It’s not worth the hassle and headaches. Don’t build a center your city isn’t prepared to support!
翻译:再也不去了!我去过保诚中心好几次演出,但昨晚去新版合唱团、男孩到男人组合和托妮·布莱斯顿演唱会的经历简直糟透了!我住在新泽西,晚上7点18分到达纽瓦克,准备观看8点的演唱会。我们离中心还有0.3英里(大约四个街区)的时候就堵车了。我们在同一个街区被困了超过30分钟!执法人员和停车管理员完全没有催促持票观众停车入场的紧迫感。当我们终于到达之前看其他演唱会都停的停车场时(晚上8点半!),却发现那里只接受预付费停车。你肯定会觉得,指挥交通的人应该在停车场入口前就把这个信息告知两条车道上的司机。我们不得不绕着中心转了一圈,才从另一个街区进入同一个停车场。最终,我们晚上9点20分才到达座位!我们在纽瓦克堵了两个小时的车。离开停车场的情况也好不到哪儿去,我们又被堵了一个小时,车流纹丝不动。演唱会晚上11点半结束,我们到家(40分钟车程)却要到下午1点半!纽瓦克必须改进!它的基础设施和停车系统根本无法容纳保诚中心近两万名持票观众。我们的演唱会体验被彻底毁了,我以后再也不会去保诚中心了。去那里太麻烦、太让人头疼了。别建一个你们城市根本无法承载的中心!
