Beat LA

Sold out PETCO Park:Padres vs. Dodgers

Going into tonight's Padres - Dodgers game the Friars were 3.5 games ahead of the Giants, sitting in 1st place. Even with their lost tonight, San Diego still has the best record in the National League, and yet, no one comes to the games. That is until the Dodgers come to town.

Tonight, for the first time since the home opener, the Padres had a sell out...42, 056 to be exact. It just goes to show that playing 1st place ball in mid-May doesn't count for much in this town. Playing the Dodgers for the 1st time all season in mid-May...now that's a different story

Aside from my new camera being water proof (which is awesome), it also has this really cool panoramic feature. Since it was just the 2nd sellout of the season, I decided to take the walk up to the top of the view section and snap this picture. Actually it's 3 pictures melded together with some pretty cool technology so be sure to click on it to see it blown up.

  2. Did you get the Olympus Stylus Tough digi camera?! I bought that one just before our honeymoon to Fiji last month, and it took amazing pics in and out of the water. It also has that cool panoramic feature you used here.
