Lakers' victory parade Monday; team says it will cover costs
June 18, 2010 | 7:48 am The Lakers' victory parade will be Monday morning -- and the cash-strapped city won't be picking up the tab this time. The parade is scheduled to start at 11 a.m. at Staples Center and head south on Figueroa Street. It is to end at USC's Galen Center off Jefferson Boulevard. Last year, there was much public debate over the use of public funds to help pay for the parade after the Lakers beat the Orlando Magic for the NBA title. In the end, private donors stepped in to cover half the city's $1.8 million in costs for police protection and other services. But last week, the team announced it would cover the costs of this year's parade. The city's fiscal health is in even worse shape than it was last year. To close a $485-million budget shortfall, the council and mayor agreed to lay off hundreds of city workers and cut library hours. Throngs of fans are expected at the parade, and officials are urging parade-goers to take public transportation. The team will ride along the route on open-air floats. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lano...ver-costs.html |

Man I have know idea sometimes. Some people just dont use common sense and in the process they make some retarded decisons. I personally dont see why you have to set trash cans on fire, break into local businesses, and vandalize other peoples car. All just so I can celebrate by acting a fool in the streets. You right not only was that unnecessary but just a bunch of chaos along with it.

Like, you are endangering the lives of innocent people and property by taking out your energy like a bunch of brainless fools. Its almost as bad as those Philly fans.

Like the Mayor said, in a city of 4 million people there are always a few knuckleheads.
So stupid, retarded. What can you do? (shoot them with non-lethal weapons for one like they did) No colosseum rally this year - sucks, parade will be a hassle to get to. Team LA for new Lakers 2010 Champions gear is in store for this weekend 100% Let's Go!!!!! By the way, in case you didn't know how Phil Jackson does things, we're getting one more next year...
