where will every one meet up at. I am gonna try and make it but not positive yet.
If the meeting place is the same as last year, assuming it is, the meeting place is in the bottom floor of the memorial coliseum. To the right, and left, of the coliseum entrace is a stair well going down. Go downstairs, go to the help desk and ask for the staging area for the star wars people.
I am going to take a stab at this and say yes, we will have to pay for parking. So my advice (if this is possible) is to carpool.
If you don't want to pay for parking, park at the Lloyd Center movie theater lot, or the mall, and ride the max down to the Rose Quarter. Its in
the free zone so you don't have to pay. This is what I did last year.
