[quote=Antitrust32]Ya know SCUDS, I like you and all, but its ashame that you have to be a Dodgers fan. You are a true fan but damn, the Dodgers stadium is empty for the first few innings EVEN in the playoffs.
Thats a good thing imo...its simply an east coast-west coast thing. West coast fans dont seem as passionate and freaky intense as us east coast fans. Philadelphia, NY, Boston...its just different. I went to a Dodger-Giant game in September a few years back in Dodger stadium, and the playoffs were very much on the line. I was amazed how my friend and I walked up to the ticket booth a 1/2 hour before the first pitch, bought tickets for about $25 that would have cost $100at Fenway (about 15-20 rows from the field, near 3rd base). Further amazed how we could talk as if we were in a library, even deep into the game, which went was finally decided in the bottom of the 9th by a walk off.
I actually would prefer being able to go to a stadium like Dodger stadium instead of Fenway. I like the quiet and the cheap prices of seats. As a Red Sox fan, going to Fenway has become too much of a pain in the ass, and the experience isnt nearly as good as staying home watching the game on TV. The fans there are very rude, even towards fellow Sox fans. I hate loud, obnoxious people. Even if they are Red Sox fans.
