Shatto 39 Lanes - Korea Town

7. January 2008

Shatto 39 Lanes is a bowling god amongst a city of bowling alleys turned entertainment centers. There are no LCD screens playing music videos, no DJs spinning music, no silly animations on the score boards, no glow in the dark bowling. This is truly one of the last remaining old school bowling alleys left in [...]

Biased Dodger Food Review on MLB.com

31. July 2007

0 Comments

The MLB has hired one of it’s own writers to review the food at a few ballparks. Sponsored by AM/PM, the food review is a fluff piece at best, with a general run down of what’s available at the stadium. They touch on the fact that at one point, they stopped grilling the dogs at [...]

If someone told you they knew of a place you could get dollar beers, dollar hot dogs, gamble and listen to bad 80’s cover bands and you didn’t have to drive to Laughlin to get it what would you say? I’ll one up that… say it were real 80’s bands like Dramarama, Berlin, and Steel [...]

Opening day, the smell of hot dogs, beer and peanuts in the air. Even though baseball season has been officially open since last Sunday. For me it really started today. My parents have been taking me to Dodger games since I was a kid. I love the Dodgers, win or lose. I decided to get [...]

It’s that time of year again. The anticipation of opening day at Dodger Stadium is almost more than I can handle. I’ve been going to games since I was a kid. Win or lose I am there for the boys in blue year after year. Which also means the City of Los Angeles Softball Leauge [...]

You could go to the movies, or pretend you are cool and see some live “theater”. But why not check out some ass kicking roller derby, live music and sushi? What more could you want? On March 3rd watch the Sirens battle it out with the Tough Cookies, in an LA Derby Dolls banked track [...]

So Cal Sports Observed picked up on this story from the times. Apparently USC kicker Mario Danelo was drunk when he fell to his death January 6th after plunging down a rocky cliff in San Pedro. I’ve had a few friends in my lifetime who seem to think [...]

I meant to write a review of Chichen Itza, the new Yucatan restaurant on 6th St, this weekend. I never got to it. So instead I’ve provided some links to some of the funnier Superbowl commercials that I missed because I was manning the grill. I’ll post the review later this week. You can also [...]

We’re sorry we screwed you, here are some peanuts

Last month Dodger fans were notified of the cancelling of the Dodger Fan Rewards Club. The company, Sports Loyalty Systems, they had teamed with to build the program, was no longer. I felt very much ripped off. I joined the Hall of Fame membership. The most expensive entry level, the one that came with the [...]
