Nothing can pay for that much salary. It's sports washing and a vanity project for some sheikh. And yeah, the sheikh is probably paid via oil money
There are six major events in Los Angeles tonight:• World Series Game 1 (MLB)• Suns at Lakers (NBA)• Rutgers at USC (CFB)• East LA Classic at Sofi (HSFB)• Bosco at Mater Dei (HSFB)• Concert at the Intuit DomeGood luck to everyone sitting in traffic!(h/t @ABC7) pic.twitter.com/WA9qtf065t— Joe Pompliano (@JoePompliano) October 25, 2024
Also concert at forum, so all 3 Inglewood venues are in use for the first time. This is an Olympics trial run and it didn't look good earlier today. West l.a. to downtown reached almost an hour, 3 hours before the dodgers game. ELO concert is the event at the forum. David Gilmour concert is the event at the Intuit dome a mile away. Between them is a high school football game with the black eyed peas performing at halftime. Abs while this all sounds crazy, Halloween is crazier every year with 300k people heading to West Hollywood for their street party.
Keep in mind, the Olympics will be held in July/August. You won't have many conflicts with different sporting events. Soccer and baseball are about the only ones. As for concerts, there could be several held to tie into the Olympic competition, or bands looking to capitalize on playing before new sets of fans, assuming there will be a lot of out-of-town visitors to L.A. in 2028.
The "conflicts" during the Olympics will be all of the different Olympic events. The local clubs won't have any home games during those weeks.
24,537 is tonight's announced attendance. Just shy of a sell-out for the Galaxy. #LAGalaxy #MLS #MLSCupPlayoffs #LAvCOL |3-0|— Corner Of The Galaxy (@GalaxyPodcast) October 27, 2024 Definitely looked like a sellout on TV.
Thanks for posting the attendance, but it looked more on TV, good atmosphere good game I enjoyed the game I was happy, what makes you sad ?
I guess they’ll announce sellouts forever no matter what but there were rows and rows of largely empty seats in corners of upper deck and chucks throughout the stadium all match. no real local sports competition either.
