Beautiful weather!? ... Can you feel the heat? ..... Maria and Sarah (Right)Working and developing frozen Mexican foods has its perks! Turns out our Marketing team partnered up with the NFL. This means fantastic advertisements and free tickets to NFL games! Being that LA has no NFL Team, rooting for either the Raiders or Chargers is the next best thing. After a little wheeling and dealing, I managed to get my hands on 4 San Diego Chargers tickets. I decided to take Carly, Sarah, and Maria.
We chose to meet Old Town, SD, where we would take the tram to Qualcomm Stadium. Upon arrival to the Stadium, was mass exodus leading to pure chaos. Apparently, there is no main entrance but 5, with long lines of fans wrapped around the perimeter. As for the Chargers fans, not sure if they were going for 2 different teams since half sported baby blue jerseys, others, navy blue. I was told the baby blue was the “throwback” from the 70’s. On the other hand, Browns fans were clearly marked with ‘poop’ brown and in my opinion ‘puke’ orange colors, not the orange like the Hokies! When we finally got there, our seats were perfect, 20 rows back from the field, 15 yard line, with one exception, towards the sun. Most people would have enjoyed getting a sun tan, but no, not this sort of sun! Maybe if there was a slight bit of ventilation in Qualcomm stadium, it would be pleasant. But as soon as we were seated, I started hyperventilating, no, not due to the beer but of overheating. Using the free team poster as a shield and stripping down to a white tank top…yes, think derogatory! I lasted until the end of the 3rd quarter. Even searching for any possible cloud to divert the heat for a minute was exhausting. Damn California, not a cloud in the sky! Give it up to Carly who attempted to kill 2 birds with one stone beating the heat and showing team spirit! She purchased 25 dollar Chargers KIDDIE t-shirts, one white and one blue (for me) …NAVY I might add!
Highlights: The charger ‘mascots’, tour of Little Italy, Alaskan fusion dinner, Vanee’s stories of UAE , the drive with Carly, hanging w/the SD bia-tches, and interrogation on my liking of dogs!

What would of been the greatest highlight of our Charger day was too see Lil Jon. Yes, I said Lil Jon and yes he was at the game. Doing what rap stars do with their entourage. A few more beers in me and I would of approached him and asked you take pics of the rapper. But ha, too bad none of that happened...
one love,
