How did thousands of fans move around L.A. during the World Cup?

Right.

So obviously, transit was one of the big questions ahead of this tournament, just given the sprawl, the famous sprawl of L.A. And these matches were in Inglewood, which does not have tons of transit access from other parts of L.A.

So Metro set up its own shuttle service specifically for the eight matches that took people from locations around the L.A. region, and even a couple of Orange County locations, directly to the stadium and back.

And that was broadly seen as a success.

More people took it as the tournament went on, which sort of signaled to Metro that people were hearing about it as the easiest place.

It also cost the same as a normal Metro ticket, and that was...

Hmm

What about security? What do we see at the World Cup with security? And what do you expect to change when it comes time for the Olympics?

Do you think that they will be as supportive as they would be if this Olympics was taking place in perhaps a Republican stronghold?

I think it's the question on everybody's mind is the Trump factor.

I think, you know, amongst sort of the local politicians and the people I've been speaking to, there's sort of this idea that why would the Trump administration let the Olympics fail? You know, it's going to be something that they can tout with pride.

But there have also been, of course, concerns about perhaps what strings might come with the Trump administration supporting the Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

You know, so Could that security funding be contingent on the city of L.A. moving more towards the Trump administration on, say, something like immigration enforcement? Another big issue here is public transit.

Everybody knows L.A.'s public transit system is sort of always struggling to catch up and get people where they need to go.

Another big ask is the Metro, which is our public transit agency over here.

What's going to happen? Have they been thinking about this?
