Water and sani-cans

It may be hot and you need to bring liquids to drink. Keep in mind the path to the bathroom may be a long one.

If you have a light folding chair, it's not a bad idea. You will have to carry it a longer distance than you had thought. Keep weight to a minimum. After the show get rid of any weight you can as you may have an hour+ wait to get to and onto a bus or subway. Don't even think about a taxi.

Parking on the street is not for those without endless patience. Parking lots are already full from local people. No easy exit exists. Be prepared to take an hour or so. The restaurants will all be crowded too.

Yes, this is what it looks like as the exodus exceeds your expectations. Be patient, it's your only hope. You will, however, find people are in a good mood and everyone has a good time talking along the way.

Wear your walking shoes. You may end up walking to Grand Central Station on 42nd and Lex. from 34th or below, or Penn Station on 7th Avenue and 34th. It can be manby times faster than waiting for a bus with room for you.
