Going to a concert with my wife and son at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. I know from visiting Chicago years ago like 15 years and parking in someone's driveway of their house for 40 bucks 1/2 mile from stadium. But a23 minute walk to stadium and 64 dollars seems crazy until I think about Chicago parking. I guess I just got sticker shock when I saw 204 dollar parking only 10 minutes from stadium 👀👀👀👀. Sorry I'm just a boomer 😂any decent parking anywhere as we'll be in a rental suv?
 
I'd Uber. Way cheaper!
I went to the Hollywood bowl last year to see a concert. We took their private bus for $7 each way from several different areas. We loaded in Lakewood, had a great early dinner, then onto the bus and was dropped off at the front gates. Way cheaper, and a fun experience. Maybe the Rose Bowl has something similar?
 
I have done the bus things to Hollywood Bowl. One included a stop at some restaurant in the hills. Unfortunately the restaurant didn't plan on 3 buses and hardly anyone got served. The straight bus trip from a mall to HB was cheaper and better. Parked there as well for concerts as well and as with any concert or sporting event getting home was H E Double toothpicks.

Now as far as the Rose Bowl lots of parking for the once a month flea market. Did the reverse for touring the Rose parade floats, parked at the Rose Bowl and took a bus to the floats. Never did a concert or game there.
The Uber suggestion may be good, but getting back might HE2T. Experienced that at Petco Park after Eagles concert. Ended up walking the 3 miles to our B and B before we could an Uber response.

I would look into a bus thing. Have you checked if the hotel is doing a shuttle?
 
I haven't checked the hotel that's not a bad idea. Thanks for sharing. I feel like we're going to be diving into a shark tank 😂
