(1) About 10 mins from midtown NYC via Lincoln tunnel
(2) Only option is by bus from Port authority bus terminal in
Manhattan. No train service
(3) There are hotels nearby. Don't know if they run shuttle bus to arena
but I assume they do
(4) They do have buses that run back Port Authority after events
(5) A bunch of money. Depending on what kind of seat you want but
expect to pay around $100 or more per ticket for that series if the
Yankees are close to catching the Red Sox. If Yanks are far gone then
the price will drop/
