Does life get any better than this?

It's sunny with a lazy breeze, the smell of hot dogs circles around me and from time to time, the cheering of thousands of fans swells from the stadium.  I'm at the Dodger's game! 

Both my heart and my stomach take a little flip.  I have to get my hands on one of those Dodger Dogs!

Don't you love being inside the stadium? Excitement electrifies the air.  Everyone acts very un-LA, smiling at each other.  Even in the elevator, everyone's chatty & friendly cracking jokes.

One guy is wearing a sombrero with LA emblazoned on the top cone.  When he looks up, it reveals Dodgers written inside of the brim.  An infant is stuffed into a tiny cheerleader uniform, Chicago Cubs stitched across the front.  I could sit and watch the fans all day.

As I score countless interviews - gotta love those fans! - I run into my coworker Steve, who has a baby in each arm.  One has a Cubs cap, the other wears a Dodger's hat.  Oh boy, I can't imagine the rivalry at his house!

Gotta run!  The game's just ended & I'm doing a live shot for Extra Innings! 

Ok I'm back, if a bit heartbroken.  The Cubs won 4-2.  I knew the Cubs were on a roll when they hit two back-to-back homers in the 2nd inning. 

At least I got my hands on a Dodger Dog.  It was scrumptious.  Ray also brought tamales for the crew from some place near Sunset & Echo Park.  They were the best. 

Gotta run, heading off to tonight's story!

Hi chica! I love that you are a Dodger gal...so am I...I grew up going to games with my dad and sis! And of course, I've never left chvez ravine without sinking my teeth into one of those "low fat" dodger dogs (hee-hee).

Well, I just wrapped up my liveshots on the Anaheim Ducks...they might just be the first So Cal team to win the Stanley Cup...! I am not a big hockey fan, but I think it's wonderful hockey fans are getting more attention!

Hope you are well, hope to see ya soon!

Cheers-
EE

The Dodgers are great partners of the Wednesday's Child program. We're going to a game soon. The child gets to go on the field to batting practice and meet the players. Then watch the game. I love the retired players... Sweet Lou has always been so helpful. One whipped out a $50. bill and gave to our child. (I have to be fair... the Anaheim Angels are just as great to the Wednesday's Child program)

i have never been to a dodger game. i have been to a few angels games, so i guess between the 2 i will root for my home town team. i'm not much of a fan, but i'm always happy to hear the angels are doing better, or just beating the dodgers. but in general going out to see a game is fun and a must do for everyone.

Christine - I LOVE Wednesday's Child. What a great combination - Dodgers, Angels & kids! Kudos to all baseball teams for helping kids.
I felt giddy - like a kid again - when I stepped on the field! :)
Thanks you guys for the comments. Ruchelle, I agree, it's nice when the players actually sign!
