dodgers v. cubs

my friend, lisa, from work. she's a cubs fan because she grew up in indiana, close to chicago. she's studying at second city hollywood to be a comedian, so eric & i walk over to see her perform once & a while.
vince vaughn sitting 2 sections away from us. he stopped to sign a bunch of autographs after the game, so lisa & i took the opportunity to run in for some pictures. (taken without zoom)
it was a great day for an afternoon baseball game, probably 80 degrees.
as you can see, there were a LOT of cubs fans there. camron just wore the hat because he hates ALL LA sports teams since he's from the Bay Area.

here's the story of how we got the tickets: Eric's manager, Jameel, had mentioned that he had gone to a Dodger game & sat so close he had to brush the dirt off his shirt. he mentioned that if Eric ever wanted to go he was welcome to the seats, so of course Eric said sure he would love to go sometime. then on thursday he was sitting in the office at work & Jameel asked if he wanted the seats for this weekend. Eric said we were already planning on going so of course we would love some free seats. his manager sent a quick text and then said "alright you're all set". we just showed up at the game & Eric showed his ID to the will-call cashier and she passed him an envelope with 4 $200 tickets inside! our seats were in the shade so after the 7th inning stretch we moved down to some vacant ones in the sun. it was so much fun even though it was not a very close or exciting game & the home team lost.

i was wondering...when they sing "take me out to the ballgame" at the Twins games, does the crowd yell "...root, root, root for the Tw-i-i-i-i-i-ns"? or do they just sing "root, root, root for the home team?" my memory says "home team". Maybe because Twins is only one syllable, so it doesn't really work well for the song? at the Dodgers/Cubs there was probably 30% Cubs fans, 30% Dodgers fans, 30% pretend-to-be-Dodgers fans, & 10% neutral, so when we sang it got REALLY loud as one half screamed "...for the Dodge-rs" and the other half screamed "Cub-bies". I thought that was funny/shameful. LA just has SO many transplants, they're aren't a lot of real die-hard fans of the home sports teams here. That makes it easy to jump onto the Dodger/Angel/Lakers bandwagon at any given time though. Let's be honest, there are no actual fans of the Clippers. LA is pretty spoiled into being a fair-weather city, in more ways than one.
