Yes, it’s true. This is how much they want for parking during the International Consumer Electronics Show. Is that crazy or what? I guess I shouldn’t be shocked. But man, that’s a lot of money to park a car for the day! This is why I request companies to send me a limo! No way I am paying that!

Here are some more photos Las Vegas Convention Center and 2007 the International CES.

$40 for parking!! I hope that came with a lap dance!!! Hey, it's Vegas...anything can happen

Wow... do they provide you with a full tank of gas too?

Just hang glide in from your suite.

Frikken madness I tell ya!

Hey John, I notice some of your recent photo-filled posts don't have goog ads, do you manually disable them for certain posts I presume? As they're automatically embedded using that wordpress plugin you mentioned usually right?

John - have you seen the new iPhone yet?

Today I lifted that $40 sign to see how much it really was on a normal day; $10.00.

Tyler - It was Comdex that went under. CES never had a problem. One of the reasons Comdex went under because of the growth of CES.

$40 sounds expensive, but parking at any major event here (near GM Place, etc.) is at least $20, so that doesn't really surprise me.

Yea I'm sure the companies pay.

Limo ride as an alternative? I don't know if that's gonna be cheaper than $40.. Though if the company pays ;)

$40 is not a bad price at all if it includes valet service.

Well Nomar, for that price you can only park it like half a week at Amsterdam airport, horrible ripoff as well, but still better than this 40$ for one day pricing ;)

lol for 40 dollar you can park your car 2 weeks at the airport here

Wow...and I thought Canucks parking was ridiculous...

Parking in you hometown must be cheap because I didnt think $40 was bad at all for all day!

I was just thinking, wasn't CES going out of business or were they able to bring back the bigger companies, I remember a year or something ago that they were having troubles staying afloat and bringing in the vendors.

Or am I thinking Comdex? Though with 140,000 attendees that isn't a convention that is having troubles now is it?

Can you say @$$ r@p3? I always thought it was ridiculous that they charge $25 for Spurs games and college football at the Alamodome.

John,

Your rss advertisement "Join My AGLOCO Network! Get Paid To Suft The Net!" has a typo. "Suft" -- "Surf"

Man I think will check out this event next year...

$40 dollars for a day's parking !!

Does car pooling work there at all ?

you should have the CES in Melbourne, pay $10 for parking, beautiful, I dont know whether the Melbourne Exhibition Centre is large enough to hold the event though

How's about prying that $40 piece of wood off and showing us the "normal" price?

New York City parking is somewhere in the neighborhood of $20 per hour.

$40? Pshaw! Daytona Beach FLA, parking near the motor speedway is $100 for the day! (during race events of course)

Looks like its shaping up to be a quality event. It also looks very similar to the DigitalLife I attended in New York a few months ago.

Parking is big business, maybe I should retire from internet work and buy up parking lots.

Cheers
