Petco Super Secrets

Ok, so I'm driving in to Petco on the 8 west Saturday night and I'm wishing I knew some super exclusive secret way to get in and out with little or no hassle. Thinking I'm slick I call up a downtown friend who tells me to take the 5 north to 6th and wiggle my way over to front and park at the convention center... My wife says take 25th and go in on Imperial, which I did cause she's my wife. Imperial was backed up so I wiggled my way over to Harbor and went to the Convention Center but that was backed up! Calgon take me away.

What's the secret, or better yet, where's the secret to getting in and out with little or no hassle?

Also, what other secrets do you guys know and want to share with fellow GasLampers? Where's the best food in or around the ballpark? cheapest seats with the best view? The best way to get good tickets late? Best place for discount merch? I know it's a bit late for a list like this but let's start one!

Take the 94
Park on the street in a bad neighborhood.  The 94 is never backed up.  I take 8 East, to 15 south to 94 West.  It's a round about way, but never stops.

Bread on Market
$11.31 is kinda expensive, but you get a very good sandwich, a bottled water, chips and a cookie to take into the ballpark.
