Saturday night was the 49th Annual Hollywood Stars game at Dodger Stadium. This has been a long-standing tradition at Dodger Stadium, beginning in 1958, the year the Dodgers came to Los Angeles. A few years back, they changed the game from baseball to softball, and they started letting people sit on the field to try to catch home runs. There used to be some reasonably famous people playing and Jon Lovitz and Billy Crystal......

Did any of you catch Bobby Flay's Throwdown the other night? It's the show where he goes to different cities across the world and challenges some legendary food purveyor that his version of whatever traditional city food they're making will win a blind taste test. Usually, he loses, cause I mean COME ON: can anybody really make a cheese steak better than a Philly native? What about fish n' chips from some grotty bar......

Maybe LAist has been covering a lot of Dodgers lately and we should think about something else for once. Wrong! They're winning! They've got the best record in the MLB! Let us bask in the glory while it lasts! Meanwhile, yesterday's game was just plain silly. Three errors in three innings, players falling down on their faces, five broken bats, drizzly rain to make the Dodger Dogs just soggy enough, it all added up......

- (1) Go to Circuit City today after 2pm, (2) ask if they have Super Paper Mario in stock, (3) if they don't have it in stock ask and then receive a Circuit City $20 gift card, (4) dance around with your free $20, (5) thank your pals at LAist and at - Joystiq - A state panel in Oxnard basically killed any hope for a floating offshore natural gas terminal to be built......

Dodger Stadium opened for business last night, with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim taking advantage of Randy Wolf's eight-million dollar arm and chalking up an easy 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the opening game of the annual pre-season Freeway Series. And while the on-field stories (Orlando Cabrera goes 3-for-3! Russell Martin can't throw anyone out!! Brady Clark makes his Dodger Stadium debut in right field and hits into a 4-3 triple......

We keep getting these emails from the Dodgers telling us about their all-you-can-eat Right Field Pavilion, and while it does seem quite appealing in a Glutton Bowl way, the biggest problem with the bleachers at Dodger Stadium is you cannot get a beer there. It appeared that the Dodgers were saying that the type of Dodger fan who would only pay $6 or $8 for a bleacher seat would be the kind that would......

Dodger 4, Orioles 2 - Zzzzzzz. Zzzzzz. Zzz ... snort ... huh? Oh. I just had the worst nightmare. I'm glad it was just a dream. Or was it? Ducks 5, Oilers 1 - One bad team deserves another. Los Angeles is still tied for last in the West, but can celebrate a commanding win over Edmonton. The Oilers have lost eight in a row and have scored just two goals in their past three......

Lakers 109, Magic 106 - Smush Parker broke out of his shell and dropped 26 on Orlando at Staples in a squeaker where the Lakers came out on top. But as we were at the game all we kept thinking about was there's no way the Dodgers will be able to keep the right field pavilion all-you-can-eat all season. An average man is able to eat three Dodger Dogs, an order of nachos, a large......

If you’re a hooligan comme moi, you frequently find yourself situated in the pavilion seats at Dodger games. The greater powers that be decided that although the right-field pavilion is already a madhouse of drunken debauchery, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to throw all-you-can-eat Dodger Dogs in with the cost of admission. Free peanuts and soda to boot? Damn. But calm down for a second sports fans, beer will not be comped --......

LAist is on a road trip around the country. So far we've made it across the country. We write you tonight from the most eastern part of the USA, Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Today we woke up in Pittsfield, then we drove to Emily Dickinson's house, then we took in baseball game at Fenway Park, and then we got lost out on the Cape. The big difference that we've noticed about Mass and LA, today,......

That woman isn't beautiful because she's a caring mother or aunt or neighbor lady. She isn't beautiful because of her nice clothes or new Dodger cap or great genes. She's beautiful because she's bringing someone a Dodger Dog. Best ballpark hot dog ever. King of the dogs. Peer to no one. God invented baseball just so people could really enjoy a good hot dog and when he helped build Dodger Stadium he didn't rest......
