    Advice: Los Angeles
    Going to Las Vegas next week for fight week and decided to fly out to Los Angeles first for 3-4 days. Anyone have any recommendations on things to do? My wife wants to hit Rodeo drive, figured we would hit the pier, but interested to see what everyone else says to go do.

    Also, are there any downtown parking lots that allow overnight parking? I was parking at the hotel was $60 per night, which seems like highway robbery, but whatever. We are staying at the JW Marriott.

    Thanks in advance.

        Catch a Dodgers game. I went there on my last trip to Vegas. I’m glad I did. If you are a baseball fan it’s a must see.

        I went to the pier and it kinda sucked. But it was on my bucket list.

        good luck with traffic

          Marriot must be at least a few hundred a night? Prefer to keep my car safe downtown for an extra 60.

                      Money isn't an issue for fire . He just trying to pretend he is part of the crowd here. The guy is loaded. I saw his salon. It's top shelf.

                            I was thinking a museum, but here are so many.

                            Have you went to any or recommend any?

                            Thinking more of a science museum

                                I would never have my name on a salon or anything to do with it because I cannot get labeled a transsexual, bisexual or any other sexual term I stay clean that’s why am bald it’s a sign of cleanliness.

                                I picked up a new religion that they frown on hair and now I might possibly have to shave my eyebrows

                                        True, I would much rather be broke and bald, money sucks!

                                        Congrats on the new religion, which one is it?

                                                    Go to Hollywood and be disappointed.

                                                    Take a picture with Spiderman, eat at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles, Museum of Death, cocaine.
