Parking Pass question

[ISUbulls]

Hi everyone! Well the time has finally arrived. I bought my tickets for the game against the Raptors Friday night they day single tickets went on sale. I wish the Bulls were a little better then a .500 team at the moment, but I am still excited to visit the United Center for the first time. Here is my question... I bought a parking pass that is in lot C3 from the looks of it on the map it's fairly close to the building. Does anyone know of this is a close lot of the building?
My other question is about logistics getting to the game. We are staying at the Club Quarters hotel in West Adams. This also looks fairly close to the United Center, but how crazy will traffic be on a Friday night? I was thinking about leaving the hotel around 5pm. Would that give me enough time to park and see MJ statue and walk around a little before the game? Thank you for the help! This will be my first time in Chicago! I'm pretty excited!

My advice to you would be to walk from the hotel to the Jackson blue line stop (it should be right outside your hotel), take the blue line train (toward Forest Park) for a few stops, get off at the Illinois Medical District stop, walk north two blocks on Damen to the United Center. Easiest way to avoid traffic, and probably the quickest way to get to and from the stadium.

Thank you for the advice!

Ok perfect. Might take a look at the MJ statue and head into the arena. I'm going to assume beer prices and food inside are pricey?

Yup.

$9.50 a beer or so

$9.50 is high, I was expecting over $10. I went to a few MLB games this year that had $10 beer

Depends on what beer you want. That's the price of Bud Lite
