I'm very happy for the stadium and team coming to the city. Great news there. What I am questioning is the location. To me, from years of taking that Pearl exit for GVSU and the YMCA, I think that is one of the most difficult exit ramps (trying to merge quickly onto Mt Vernon, not having a good view of what's coming from Mt Vernon, and trying to get over quickly to turn right onto Pearl. Pushing a rush of cars before a game through there just seems very challenging. Hopefully someone much smarter than I am has this figured out.
Side note: As someone who uses a wheelchair and uses the DDH YMCA, I hope that they maintain good snow/slush maintenance at the sidewalk street crossings between the GVSU ramp and the YMCA.
