I tried Lyft in Memphis this past weekend and get this...no surge pricing to drop off or pick up at fedex forum for the grizzlies game!


I posted this before, but I did 2 Ubers and 1 Lyft in Houston to and from the LSU-Wisconsin game and never paid a single dollar due to promo codes.

Even without the codes, the most expensive ride would have been $14 and that's from downtown to Reliant.

Did you Uber after the game ?

I got 10x surge pricing after the game so we went back to the tailgate spot. However they run you out of there after awhile so we needed to GTF. Tried again and surge was still on. Would have cost us $400 to get to the Heights. Ended up taking the lightrail to downtown then took a short Uber from there. However I don't blame Uber totally for this. Houston is good at making events like this a clusterfrick.
