In an attempt to attract the thousands of USC students ready to spend money in downtown, AEG is funding a free weekend shuttle between the campus and the entertainment complex.
The shuttle departs every 30 minutes from The Lab Gastropub or The 901 Bar and drops passengers off at the new Regal Cinemas L.A. LIVE Stadium 14. The schedule is as follows:
Friday: 6 p.m. - 2 a.m.
Saturday: 2 p.m. - 2 a.m.
Sunday: 4 p.m. - 10 p.m.
Those 2 a.m. stop times are good news for the inebriated. It's also the first free movie night at the Regal Cinemas for USC students, which will help launch the transit option, says Eric Richardson at blogdowntown.
