President of the United Sates Barack Obama will be visiting Burke Lakefront Airport on Friday, October 14 at 8:30 am to hold a political rally. While the visit will be completed before Game 1 of ALCS, there will be some street closures that may cause traffic delays in the morning. View those street closures here. Be cautious of counterfeit tickets. As the Cleveland Indians advance further in the postseason, the risk of purchasing counterfeit tickets from individuals selling on the street increases. Fans who purchase tickets from a secondary source are taking a chance. Tickets for Games 1 and 2 of the American League Championship Series on Friday and Saturday are sold out, but purchasing from other sources besides Indians.com is done at the buyer’s risk. Police officers want to proactively curb such activity and encourage buyers to be aware. Purchasing via other means creates the potential for possessing either an invalid or counterfeit ticket. The Indians are not responsible for tickets purchased through secondary sources. Arrive early, stay late. In order to ensure that you arrive at your destination without missing a second of the action, plan your commute beforehand and allow yourself extra travel time. There are plenty of great places to eat and enjoy the City of Cleveland nightlife after the game. Visit http://www.downtowncleveland.com/play for a list of options. If you see something suspicious, say something. Report any suspicious activity to safety officials. Ride RTA. The Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is beefing up its service to fans coming Downtown Friday and Saturday for the American League Championship Series (ALCS), Cleveland Indians vs the Toronto Blue Jays. The Walkway Each day, the Walkway from the Tower City Station opens four hours before the first pitch. Friday: 4 p.m. for the 8:08 p.m. game. Saturday: noon for the 4:08 p.m. game. Rail service Customers can be assured that the Blue, Green and Red lines will get you to the ballgame on time and will be there to get you home up to 60 minutes after the game ends -- even if a baseball game goes into extra innings. -more- RTA staff will be on hand to sell $5 Round-Trip Tickets at major stations.
