I-71 North. The IX Center is right by an entrance ramp for 71. This will take you right into downtown Cleveland.

Where are you going downtown and I can maybe give you more specific directions.

Can you "guesstimate" how much cab fare would be from a hotel near the IX Center to Progressive Field? And would finding a taxi post-game be at all problematic?

Thank you

If it's anything like LA rates it would be roughly $50-$60.

Sean's probably right, about 50 bucks one way.

There is a commuter train that makes a stop in the airport and goes downtown (costs $2-3 1way). I would suggest that. IX Center i right next to the airport.

Could I Then easily get from the airport to the Convention Center?

Bob - See if your hotel shuttle can take you to one of the commuter train stops, if not directly downtown.

I've had a change of plans and won't be attending the National. I hope everyone has a great time!

Thanks, Bruce! Hopefully you can make it next year.

I'll be stopping by SGC's booth to have some cards reholdered, as well as perusing the floor to meet some friends and check out some cards. I think I have everything in order....

Backpack? Check!




Comfortable shoes? Check!




Card for SGC to reholder? Check!




New custom t-shirt made just for the National? Check!



Safe travels, everyone, and see you there!

Sorry, I should have mentioned via public transportation as I will be without a car.

thanks

The Rapid located in the Airport - $2-3 1way. Drops you off in Tower City, next to the casino, a short walk to Jacobs Field.
