Entertainment ideas for Lakerfans visiting from Cleveland 

Post#1 » by LakerClipperFan » Thu Mar 28, 2019 9:12 pm

My Lakerfan friends from Cleveland are coming in tonight, we're all going to the #Charlotte home game tomorrow night. Anyone have any "must do" ideas for Lakerfans visiting L.A.? We plan to walk around LA Live, will show them the statues out front of all time Laker greats, see the retired jerseys of other legends like Magic, West, Kareem, Shaq.

Any ideas are appreciated. We will go visit the fabulous Forum, of course!

We need to create a thread and sticky it about this subject. It comes up quite often!

I visited a few years ago in Kobe's last year. Some of the highlights:

1) Santa Monica Pier

2) Madame Tussauds Hollywood Wax Museum: It was fun. Really fun.

3) Venice Beach Boardwalk & Surrounding Areas: Lots of good restaurants and cool sight seeing.

4) Hollywood sign.

5) Hollywood Walk of Fame: Lots of great restaurants, cool stores.

I was only there for 3 days and my hotel was on Hollywood Blvd, thank god. When I go back, I'll be making it a much longer trip. I was going to go back if the Lakers were in the playoffs, but I'm not doing that anymore. Ugh.

Oh, and if you're looking to buy merchandise, wait until you get to the arena. The store there is absolutely nuts. I felt like I had died and gone to heaven. My credit card died that day too.

Thanks guys, great idea on Roscoe's!! Probably go to Original Tommys too.

The Lakers merch store down in Playa Del Rey is cool as well...got 25% off everything at a Lakers event there last year. I picked up several too many Bron jerseys!

Wax museum is cool as well, LA native and I have honestly never been.
Yup I live on the Westside, so will hit 3rd St. Promenade, beach Boardwalk, etc...

Wicked suggestions, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're interested in a relaxing night in your hotel room, I would head over to LA Wonderland Marijuana dispensary and check out their selection of edibles.
