The new modernistic Stadium that the Chinese built for Tico pleasure has some questionable decisions. First I read that there was ONLY one Tico who was hired to build the place and all the rest are Chinese that were brought in to do it cheaper.

Now I hear another decision that seems strange to me. The stadium holds 35,000 people. Guess how many parking spaces it will have..................................................... 200. I'm not a constructural engineer but imagine all these people trying to find a place to leave their cars.

*Shrug* Whatever. The other day I saw Cujo driving his 1978 Ford Pinto with at LEAST 40 other Mexicans in it.

Which answers Livingcr's question. There was a time in the US when we did too.

Good point about the Boston Garden and Fenway Park. It must have something to do with Boston having a thriving Asian population.

It's true light rail is great in San Diego and there is rail service to the San Francisco stadium. Have you heard about the possibility of a new downtown Los Angeles football stadium, next to Staples. Blue Line rail service is about two blocks away.

Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure exactly when the Shakira concert is, however I've heard that you can attend this event for ONLY $300/ticket. The next event that I've heard about is the futbal (soccer) game between Costa Rica and Argentina.
