Anyone know of a shuttle that runs from Louisville to Lexington on game day?

Planning to go to the game at Kentucky. Just wondering if there'd be transportation options from Louisville or if renting a car is my only option.

Probably not, Greyhound bus is $15 one way, the cities are 140 miles away from each other. Lexington has plenty of housing options, try Airbnb.

Lexington is only about an hour from Louisville and is much nicer IMO. I'd much rather stay there than Louisville

According to a low level sauce in the UK athletic dept. that works for WBB, they have never done this.

Right.... seems like roughly an hour and 20 according to the google machine. Planning to stay in Louisville for the trip and do some of the bourbon trail

It’s a lot of driving so be prepared for that. Me and Ms. Atkins just did a Nashville->Louisville->Lexington trip a couple months ago. We had never been to either Louisville or Lexington, but we were both surprised at how run-down Louisville was and how nice Lexington was. Churchill downs was by far the coolest thing about Louisville. Also, definitely recommend doing some planning on the distilleries as a lot of them are still shut down or only offering limited tours/no tours at all and only tastings. A lot of the distilleries not in Louisville are about equal distance from Louisville and Lexington - FYI

It’s an easy drive. Like going BR to NOLA.
Just not sure about a shuttle.

We rented a car it’s only an hour away. Not 140 miles more like 78 from airport to downtown

It’s worth renting a car that weekend. Driving straight from airport to Keeneland Friday evening and then catching a Woodward Reserve tour Sunday on the way back to Louisville which is only about 6 miles off the highway.

Around Churchill, sure. Louisville isn’t run down though. Great pockets of neighborhoods surrounding down town

To be fair, we were only there a couple days so it's not like we spent a TON of time there. We did have an incredible meal at Jack Fry's, and that whole area around there was very nice. Downtown was pretty dirty and lots of bums though, but I guess that's to be expected with any big city.
But personally we just enjoyed Lexington a lot more, especially the downtown area. Seemed a lot cleaner, nicer, safer
