There are many ways to spend a day in the Los Angeles area --- while traffic near the various stadiums may require some extra patience and knowledge of detours, the fun here continues practically non-stop.

There are a lot of crazy places on game day, but it is hard to beat Tallahassee or Gainesville!! The ACC and SEC are crazy conferences. Here in Chicago, no way!

I am in alignment with Michael Jacobs comment. The only difference is that I am several hundred miles North.  Planning is essential when there is a game or other activity.

Watching that game now, Fred! Those 3 icing attempts didn't stop your kicker (can't spell his name A___)!!  Great game so far!

Yes, showing homes in our Uptown Charlotte area during Panther games is next to impossible! However, much of the city are such huge Carolina Panther fans that no one wants to go house shopping during game time!

There's a lot of activity on game days, Fred, whether professional sports or not... but the city is spread out enough that really you don't feel it much unless you are in the stadium areas.
