One of the last family owned teams......all went down the crapper when the O'Malley family sold out. Prices went thru the roof, the quality of snacks went to the cellar as did the quailty of play. They became the Clippers of the MLB.
I see they hired the former LAPD Chief to beef up security. The Gestapo has arrived. I'll never step foot in there again. A few ruin it for the rest of us.

I use to work there selling Coke and Cool-a-cool during the the Steve Garvey days. I was 14 and lie about my age. I even work the World series. It put a few needed bucks in my pocket. I wouldn't want to step foot in any football, baseball, or basketball stadium around here. Too many low lifes go to the games and ruin it for the families. Too bad the gang banger type are all over the south land. I am so sick of the type. You look at them wrong and they immediately want to fight.
I live on top of the hill in those dead end streets in Echo park off Sunset near Stadium Way. We walk the dirt path down the hill to work after school when there's a game. Where did you lived?
