The short answer: book the vehicle by the hour and get dropped at the Jefferson Street gate. A 4-hour game night on a Luxury SUV (6 seats, $125/hr) is $500 before tax. Groups take the Executive Sprinter (14 seats, $145/hr) or the Party Bus (28 Pax) ($250/hr) — a 6-hour night is about $62 or $54 per person respectively with every seat filled.
