Parking is expensive downtown Detroit on opening day! Take transit instead!!

In preparation for Opening Day, several downtown parking garages near Comerica Park have announced flexible financing options for fans hoping to park within a half mile of the stadium.

Jenn Italia, 38, said she was pre approved for a standard space but needed a co signer for anything considered “close enough to hear the national anthem.”

The new plans include 12 month payments, zero percent interest if paid off by July, and a balloon payment due before the seventh inning stretch.

“I love the Tigers,” Italia said, reviewing her amortization schedule in a navy jersey. “But I didn’t expect to refinance my future to park for three hours.”
