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.


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.

Did Lyft.

Used a promo. Found Berg on the side of the road and picked him up So we all got to downtown for free.

I waited outside the stadium ~30 minutes with some friends who were driving, but I said screw it and went to the CVS right by the stadium and got picked up in 9 minutes.

The Lyft price, if I hadn't used the promo, was $14.

It is my understanding after reading posts on here that I got extremely lucky, and it was much more difficult for everyone else.
