Every Laker game, even vs the bobcats, is sold out and all the bars and restaurants in downtown get slammed. Sometimes it doesnt even look like theres an event going on at clippers games.
The clippers are for the slews of transplants that move to LA and cant afford to see their team when they come to town to play the Lakers, so they settle for clippers games.
