Thanks for the tips man! I think we're going to try to Opening Day, and then Friday and possibly (but less likely) Saturday. We'll definitely be in Halloween colors, but I think I can handle it. I once went to a Phillies game with my then-girlfriend in a Bonds jersey, and people were throwing stuff at us as soon as we arrived and throughout the game. Considering it's the same state, hopefully Dodger Stadium is a little friendlier than that! Though I guess that'll depend on whether we try to sit in Left Field, or suck it up and get seats in upper deck. Probably won't want to shell out for lower deck seats.
I have a friend who lives in West Hollywood, so I think we'll be staying with him. He's a local though, so I think he'll have a better grip on traffic that I will. I don't even know what part of town the stadium's in! Thanks for all the tips though. Should be a fun series.
Hey man! Sorry for the delay, I meant to respond to your message earlier. Just wanted to say that I had a great time at Dodger stadium last month, despite the Giants losing both of those first two games that I attended. We suffered mostly some good-natured harassment, exactly what I expected. It was all in good fun, and we even had a surprising number of Dodger fans come up to us (we were all in Giants gear) and congratulate us on the Series, and a few even said they were rooting for us.
Anyway, thanks for your note -- it was appreciated. No hard feelings from that stupid incident, just a great rivalry! They all get out of control sometimes I guess.
