Like...go to Staples Center for our Select-a-seat time. We already bought our season tickets and this is the night we can go inside Staples to see any of the other available seats that can be purchased or swapped. We like the section we are currently at but would like to move a few rows up closer to the ice. There were several to choose from in our section but none of them were the aisle seat which can be convenient to come and go but a pain when you have to get up to let someone by. We liked some seats in row 7 (we currently are in row 12) but then went to the section directly across the ice to see how those seats were. It turned out that a lot of the ice and goal would be blocked by the players on the bench making all those line changes etc. Back to our first choice...in row 7. Much better to be 5 rows closer and hey, no price increase! We waved down a rep who fills out some paperwork which we have processed and voila', all done. Time to get our free food like hot dogs and sodas at the concession stand. Also a lot of the store merchandise is 50% off. Hector found a Kings hat to replace his old one he lost in Montreal, I got a hoodie and a bigger jersey for Tyler. Good deal. They had used player jerseys which ranged from $50 to $1000 and used equipment like sticks, goalie pads etc. It was fun to try on the gloves and blocker to get an idea of what it's like.
After that it was on to Hollywood Park (horse track) to catch the end of the races and the English Beat concert. We met up with Hector's former colleague and his girlfriend to hang out and enjoy some music. We were only a couple of people back from the stage so I tried taking some pictures which came out blurry and a super short video clip. All sorts of people were there with a couple of rowdy guys, you know the usual. But it was lots of fun to hear the music like Save It For Later and I Confess and stay out late on a date. :)
So that was it...
