Dodger Stadium Parking? Not a problem anymore.

When the Dodgers opened the season this year on April 9th the mayhem caused by the new parking lot system caused quite a bit of angst here in LA. You may remember it was documented here by San Diego Smooth Jazz Man.

According to Bill Plaschke in the LA Times today, it took him 6 minutes to drive from the freeway to the parking lot this past Tuesday at 6:42 in the evening. My Dodgers season ticket holder friends at work also confirm that getting into and out of the parking lot has eased considerably since that time.  

So if you're in LA this weekend, don't let a fear of high gas prices, LA traffic, an onerous parking fee ($15), or parking lot chaos keep you from the series.  My wife and I will be in Loge section 159, row L this weekend - hope to see you there!

Alyssa Milano
is also a Dodgers fan. Which is probably the only redeeming point for the Dodgers.

re: Alyssa Milano
I hear dat. And did you know that she has her own baseball blog?

Representative quote:

Love it or hate it, this is our team. Our outfield, our manager, our LOB #'s, our lack of power. It's all ours. And whether you're Yankees fans, Cubs fans or Dodgers fans, we have all shared this feeling. We are all the same.

Riiiiiiiiight. Obviously, the blog is a marketing vehicle for her clothing line and, of course, MLB. Still, she's hot.

Unfortunately
I'll be sitting next to somebody from Pacoima, not Ms. Milano.

Of course
You're getting this from BILL PLASCHKE!

Sons of Steve Garvey takes apart yet another idiotic Plaschke column.

Plaschke goes to a Tuesday night game against the Brewers and announces parking isn't a problem anymore.

Well, Bill, parking on Tuesday night games against the Brewers were never a problem.

Just more idiocy from Plaschke.

By the way, do you know what the most dangerous place to stand in a baseball stadium is?  It's not the batter's box.  It's between Plaschke and a crippled, mentally-challenged or dying kid.

Piss off, sister, and get us some pretzels!
