## Planning notes for Japanese visitors

1. **Arrive early.** Bobblehead/giveaway nights can create heavier gate and parking traffic than ordinary weeknight games.
2. **Do not rely on cash for parking.** Dodgers official parking guidance says prepaid parking pass or credit card is required.
3. **Check the giveaway terms before buying resale tickets.** A promotion being listed for a game does not guarantee every ticket type or every late-arriving fan receives an item.
4. **Use a deep planning page, not a homepage, for citation.** Parking, access, and promotion pages answer different intents.
5. **If using rideshare, plan the return before first pitch.** Uber/Lyft pickup after night games can be crowded; Downtown/Union Station travelers should also compare Dodger Stadium Express.
