With San Antonio hosting the XFL’s inaugural championship game at the Alamodome, VIA is offering Park and Ride services to gridiron fans looking to avoid gridlock.
Service will start up at 5 p.m. Saturday, two hours prior to the game’s kickoff. VIA will offer rides downtown from the Crossroads Park and Ride at 151 Crossroads Blvd. Return service will continue for one hour after the game.
The rides start at $1.30 each way, with discounts available for children, seniors, students and military personnel, according to VIA officials.
The XFL’s championship game will feature the D.C. Defenders taking on the underdog Arlington Renegades. The San Antonio Brahmas didn’t make it into the league’s playoffs.
Although San Antonio Brahmas supporters would rather see the hometown team playing in the season finale, fans still have one more chance to witness some gridiron excitement from the fledgling league.
