It’s not every day that you can buy a TAP card with Potus’ face on it…
Rodeo Drive was historically renamed President Barack Obama Boulevard a few months ago and, to be honest, it still throws us off guard to see it pop up on our GPS. Metro had released a limited edition tap card to celebrate the renaming, but as you can imagine they were sold out almost instantly. Luckily, Metro riders that didn’t get the chance to snag themselves a commemorative TAP card with the 44th presidents face on it will have a second chance beginning this week!
The rare Obama Boulevard tap cards will be available at Metro Customer Centers and will be sold for the low price of two dollars (plus the costs of fair depending on where you’re trying to go.) The cards will only be available until they run out so if you’re dying to get your hands on one – it’s probably best to head over to a nearby center… like, now!
