Should be a good experience for you.
Food is always great regardless.. the atmosphere just makes it taste better lol.. honest
Bathrooms - if you're going with the misses, she's going to have to wait, for men it's faster
From Santa Ana, you'll hit traffic when you're near downtown, there's always traffic there, can't avoid it hehe
For parking, i usually just find some quick $10-15 place and side there are tons. THe closer you want the more it'll cost you.
Come early so you get to enjoy the crowd, the mood, the food, etc.
Oh yeah, and you have to walk around the inside and take pictures with all the blown up pictures of the players. Just too kewl hehe
last, enjoy...
i still can't believe you live in Santa Ana and haven't been to a Laker game. Even as a kid i put out $20 to sit in the nose bleeds. I didn't care if the players looked like ants, it was the atmosphere, the screaming hehe But money is money, i understand.
but i must warn one.. Once you go Lakers you can't stop hehe
