Traffic all over Downtown LA no matter what route you took.
Lots of Lakers fans.
Sunburnt
Food/drink vendors everywhere.
Get your t-shirt vendors everywhere.
People in their seats smoking weed at the Coliseum.
Dirty as hell Coliseum entrances with trash all over the place.
Best way to save time, get dropped off and save money on parking.
Saw some girl teasing the crowd like she was going to flash everyone.
Overall, I am glad that I went even though I expected a lot more.

Nothing was going to stop me from joining the party. I've been waiting since the end of last season for this celebration. I made it down to LA and was 5 people from getting in when they shut the gates. We ran to the next gate, but it was closed too. Then some homies busted through a side gate and people started flooding in. We jumped in the flow and slipped in before the riot gear cops shut it down. We finally found somewhere to sit, which was 2 rows from the top in the very back. This picture made it all worth it.
its simply amazing the Laker love in this town, especially for this team. You'd think we never won a ring before. Was 2000 like this too? I can't honestly can't remember.
2000 was pretty wild but i don't think it was quite like this.. it's different this time.. a celebration for a new generation/era!

When I got off the 10 FWY I saw people parking at the courthouse on Hill. I was like DAMNNN!!!! Long walk I must say. I paid $30 for last minute parking and was only about 2 blocks away from Figueroa and Jefferson right by Felix....got there too late for the Coliseum (thanx to traffic)!!! _________________ Lakers till the casket drops!!!
