That's the best way to do it, it is easy to make $1000 a night when surges get high. I know people out here in AZ that made around $10,000 in 7 days of actual work last year between NYE, the Phoenix Open, Barrett Jackson and the Super Bowl weekend. Halloween out here always gets to between 7-9x surge out here as well.
Here's the thing, demand varies from market to market, so the amount of money people make varies. BR for example does not have the demand that Phoenix does. The only time I remember surge getting has high as 8x was this past New Year's holiday. It's only remotely close to being that high on gamedays.

Well ya because BR doesn't have the big events but Halloween and NYE have to be huge. Another thing is that in BR drinking and driving isn't demonized like it is in the Phoenix Metro area. It's looked down upon here by the public and the laws back that up. You get 10 days in jail for your first DUI and I think it's either 2-3 months for your second. Also, you get the 2-3 months for your first if you are over .15 .Needless to say people don't drink and drive and that is huge for Uber.
