Has multiple locations in the city with tons of facilities. Pro sports LA has great opportunities for seeing live pro sports. * LA Dodgers, Dodger Stadium. Who wouldn’t want to grab a Dodgers Dog and get a nice sunburn watching a nice game of baseball? Don’t forget to wait until the 2nd or 3rd inning to show up, as the locals do. * LA Lakers, Staples Center. Do they need an introduction? Arguably the most popular team in the city. Check to see if prices have dropped since the lineup changed… during their string of championships you’d have to have taken out a second mortgage on your house to pay for the seats. * LA Clippers, Staples Center.
