I went to LA this past weekend.
Saw the game. Beat the Beavers. Savored the victory and for 12 hours, we all thought we'd be going to New Orleans for the BCS Nat'l Championship. Instead, in theory, we could be playing for a co-championship.
We need out of the BCS, it's absolute bullshite and it's biased against Pac-10 teams anyway...
Here's a shot of an SC tradition...
This is toward the end of the 5th Quarter, when the greatest marching band in the history of the universe plays for the faithful for about 30 minutes after the game.
Then Coliseum security kicks us out!
On the way back, I cruised past LA's latest landmark and new home of the LA Philharmonic, the new Frank Gehry Disney Concert Hall.
Couldn't get in though. Or even close because they were doing some kind of shoot that closed all the streets around the Hall. So this pic was taken in the rain two blocks away.
Sunday was visiting friends and former classmates. Wound up at a Burberry's in South Coast Plaza. Brrrr....! But dinner was fine.
