    Alas, the Nut Tree ain't what it used to be back in the old days.

    (And I still vastly prefer Hella Cup.)

    It just occurred to me that one of the highlights of a visit to Carson for a Galaxy game is the Sketchers outlet store just down the street. My guess is no other MLS team can boast a factory outlet in such proximity to their stadium. :)

    At the moment, there might not be another NFL team that can make that claim either... :)

    So how big are the "worlds largest skechers"?






    It seems they left a word off that billboard that significantly changes the meaning.

    I dunno about that.. Haven't a handful of NFL teams have moved out to the suburbs? I would think that increases the likelihood of them being located in close proximity to an outlet mall.

    Gillette Stadium has a mall built into it........

    Isn't there a big shopping district in close proximity to SKC's stadium as well?

    Apparently the Bowling Factory Outlet is down the street from the Dick

    http://www.bowlingfactoryoutlet.com/

    Though it looks like its inventory only for online sales, no store front.

    I truly never understood the outrage about that one.The problem was the position of the text and not the axe itself.

    Naw. The axe was an issue too. It looked too cartoony, apparently.

    And there's also the Wrentham Outlet Mall, which is in the next town over from Foxboro.
