Yeah, also I've learned I always seem to park on the green level. Most people I see take the first spots they see, but I go to the far end of the parking level and, so far, every time I've parked within a few spots of the elevator/ escalator. Hollywood/Highland is real easy to get in and out of. There's a stoplight to get you in and onto Highland very easily. IMHO.
With validation, I only pay $2 for when I see a movie at El Cap. Works for me!!!
