Win a Box Suite for You & Friends for a Show at the Greek Theatre

You may not see them, but they are there. And they're pretty damn sweet. Behind the general seats at the Greek Theatre are a series of box suites, fit for four people. And they come with some nice perks like a personal waiter, access to the VIP deck and VIP parking (read: not stacked).
And now is your chance to live it up. You can win a box suite for you and three of your friends by commenting on this post with your best or favorite tip about attending concerts at The Greek. Maybe you know the best time to show up to get the best stacked parking spot, maybe the best experience is complemented by a nearby Los Feliz bar after a show, or maybe there's a beer/food line that's always short at the venue.
Whatever that is, let it be known in the comments section as your entry. The winner will be able to choose one of the following shows for their box suite experience: David Gray / Ray Lamontagne (September 7), Serj Tankian (September 18), Train (September 30) or Dane Cook (October 2).
There will be only one winner, so good luck! Full contest details are below.
