Ok so most of day two sucked, did some shopping while waiting around for Ray to arrive. So he finally gets here, we grab our rental car and hit the road. By this time it’s about 8:30 pm and we figure we better get to the hotel and check in (#2 of 4). Wow, she’s smack in the middle of some kind of Chinatown, everything, and I mean everything, is in some asian language (to be fair, it may not be Chinese) right down to the instructions fur using the in-room phone.
Inside the barriers
So anyway we get settled in and decide we want to find some food. Neither one of us feels like Oriental so we roll. It’s 10:30 pm and we can’t find anything so I say fuck it, lets try around LA Live. So we get there and there’s barriers up but it looks like they are starting to clean up so we hop a barrier on the Staples Center side of the street and cross over in to the LA Live plaza and we’re somehow in a zoned off area so we walk up to a spot where two fences meet and as I reach out to move it a bit to go through, the security guy opens it for us!
Crash the Premiere!
We are right outside the doors to the Nokia Theater and there’s lots of people dressed uo, Ray points to the main entrance to the area where there are two more security guys that are letting people out but not in haha! Nice, we crashed this and had no idea! Yes it’s a gay ass movie but it’s still cool that we crashed it!
Bad Ass 32oz Beer
The novelty of this wore off pretty quick, so we exited through the main entrance and proceeded on our quest for food, settling on a sports bar called Yard House. Sign outside said “Over 100 Beers On Tap”, we were like “Hell Yeah” and went in! Killer food, and I am not saying that liberally, even the ranch dip for the wings was a cut above. Very decent prices for huge portions too, where do you ever find 16 jumbo wings for $10? Ray also polished off a 32oz bad ass glass of beer. We loved it so much we’re going back tonight after the draft.
Well, this is a little long winded so I’ll cut it off here. Gotta wake Ray up and hit the road! Time for some shopping in LA before heading downtown around 2!
