Thunder Alley Watch Parties Not Dead Yet?

[Urbanized]

Don't we already do that for Opening Night?...

No. The opening night admission buttons is only to grant admission to the various venues. Anything happening on the street (even the closed streets) can be accessed by the public without admission. Again, by law you cannot block a public street and charge admission for entry.

The other major public safety concern specifically with Thunder Alley is emergency vehicle access. The size of the crowd on the last few events became so out-of-control that the City had concerns that emergency services would not be able to adequately respond to an emergency inside the building.

These are real-world issues that nobody thinks about when complaining about the event being done away with.

Doesn't that make a Gran Prix on city streets out of the question?
