re: Endymion Question

Ride share away before the parade is manageable because most drivers are dropping people off at the route and fewer riders are trying to leave. A driver would love to pick someone up after a parade drop-off and bring you downtown.

You most want to avoid a ride that needs to get around the route so if you get to the I-10 side of Canal you should be fine, something like Carrollton and Banks in front of Jesuit or Canal toward the cemeteries are easier to get to and shoot out back to I-10. Banks and either Broad or Norman Francis Parkway and then shoot over I-10 to Earhart to downtown.
