The Kings Win the 2012 Stanley Cup

The Los Angeles Kings have won the 2012 Stanley Cup; the first time they have accomplished this since the franchise was founded way back in 1967. I decided to head over to Staples Center after I was convinced that I could not jinx their chances, and even though New Jersey scored about two minutes after I headed out, it was not enough to stop the Kings as they skated on to a 6-1 victory. While I was relatively confident there would be no issues with crowd control, I parked about a good half-mile away (behind LAPD’s staging area) which turned …

I had the opportunity to see Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band at Staples Center last night. It was a great concert. I have been a Bob Seger fan since Ramblin Gamblin Man, which was around 1969. I have seen close to 100 live acts, but for some reason I never made it to a Seger concert. To say that I was looking forward to last night would be an understatement. The song I was looking forward to hearing performed live was Turn the Page. He waited until almost the end to play it, so I was getting a …

When we went to Staples last night, I got spun around and ended up parking by LA Live on 11th Street. To my surprise, they had the street blocked off and an old style carnival set up.

Even the security personnel said they had never seen anything like this before and that it had no name that they knew of. Google was of little help, so I think we will call it the GotBaddog Staples Holiday Fair until someone …

Every year for the last three years, my friend Joe gets a couple suites at Staples Center and he invites a few dozen of his friends to come join him for a Christmas party while watching the Los Angeles Kings. It is always a great time with fun people, a visit from a few of the King’s Ice Crew, snacks and drinks. Sometimes the Kings win to make the event perfect. Well, the Kings got whipped by the Minnesota Wild last night, but luckily all the other ingredients remained so it was another successful Christmas party at Staples. Back to …

Photos From Hockey Night Los Angeles Kings vs Florida Panthers Last night, Tanya and I went to a Christmas party that a friend of ours has thrown for the last couple of years at the Staples Center. Since Tanya and I have yet to spend a Christmas together, we dress up a bit to get in the festive mood, and use this as our Christmas celebration. The Los Angeles Kings hosted the Florida Panthers, and defeated them 3-2. The Kings were down 2-1 in the second period, so it is not like it was an easy win. Everyone had a …
