yup. Well I was able to find tix for myself and a friend, assuming that I would get a tix for my girlfriend, we arrived and it was sold out so I resold them. I felt horrible for all those that came from far away places to Ultra, which were many, way too many people were left out. I did not see that coming at all, at least not at 3pm.
btw Downtown it's shut down because of Ultra. Could not go to Space/Karu and Y.. called it a night. Was stuck in traffic since 11:15 till about 11:45 and Ultra wasn't even done, had to do a U. |

Well it is an outside park but they can only let in so many people to the park. Still, your talking about tens of thousands of people... |

Well that explains why no cabs coming from usual direction to drop people off at SPACE..(where I usually go to try for cab after Ultra I was so lucky to find 4 others nice enuf to let me ride back with them to the beach.
It's just going to get worse...the traffic situation...the metro should develop some sort of shuttle system/special bus lines for this event... |

i took the bus around 4 from the beach, took until 5:45 to get to omni station...traffic was insane. only stayed at ultra for Faithless and then left b/c I was entirely too exhausted and the death cold I seem to always get when I arrive in Miami took full hold of my sinuses and lungs. In retrospect, had I realize how much people were selling tickets for, I would have sold mine and stood outside the gate to hear faithless haha.
I've never heard of Ultra selling out...the lineups this year were the worst i've seen in the 4 years I've gone too. It was worth the money for me to see Faithless for an hour just b/c I'm that insane about them and they hardly ever come to the states.
I'm very glad I left when I did seeing how bad traffic was coming back to the beach...i can imagine a few hours later how much worse it was.
Even my cab driver commented this was the worst year for him as far as being overworked. Seemed to notice a lot less cabs than in years past just about everywhere on the beach and downtown. And a lot of the drivers were refusing people. |

| ^Sounds like Ultra is outgrowing Miami, or at least the mass transportation system there. |
