0:02 welcome everyone out of Mizzou whoo here
0:02 on the other side of this wall just a
0:04 few short weeks ago was an entire
0:05 building now there is relatively nothing
0:08 and they are destroying it
0:28 second channel like a monster these are
0:28 some of the original seats and signage
0:33 at the very famous Los Angeles Dodger
0:39 Stadium I was standing at the club level
0:44 overlooking the field look at this
0:53 pretty freakin cool
0:53 here's a slightly closer view to home
0:57 plate you can see now that the game is
1:00 not happening they are doing some
1:02 maintenance it is pretty cool to be in
1:05 here with relatively no one else it's a
1:10 pretty neat experience not completely
1:13 alone but only maybe a dozen or so other
1:17 people on property at this time you must
1:19 always watch for foul balls and I always
1:22 think about sitting right here behind
1:23 the dugout when they ricochet off of
1:27 this concrete embankment and of course
1:30 all the players tucked away down here
1:34 this is where all the magic happens
1:37 behind the scenes
1:44 I've only been to one game here i sat
1:44 out in the outfield they have an
1:46 all-you-can-eat special where you get
1:48 hot dogs and popcorn and soda I think
1:51 it's like $40 or something not the best
1:53 seats but pretty fun out there and if
1:57 you exit out the stadium and make your
1:59 way into the parking lot there is a
2:01 gargantuan foam finger you think it's
2:06 really made out of foam let's test it
2:09 out let's test the theory is it foam
2:15 nope
2:16 it's made out of tin if you ever make it
2:18 up to the very top of this location look
2:22 for road number 12 and then turn
2:26 slightly and walk towards the second
2:30 pullover which is row 10 and look for
2:33 these red electrical boxes in The Naked
2:36 Gun where Leslie Nielsen is talking to
2:37 OJ Simpson's character that's the
2:40 electrical box right there all the cast
2:43 is standing in this exact spot then he
2:47 Pat's him on the back and down he goes
2:51 right
2:54 down there careening off the top level
2:57 look at him fly there obviously that's
3:00 not the actor that's just a dummy but
3:02 the illusion is presented and the
3:05 interesting thing is if you look closely
3:07 you can still see the same metal
3:10 protective area right here but obviously
3:15 it didn't help too much because off he
3:17 went
3:18 and it probably left a mark not only on
3:22 him but the people he would have landed
3:24 on directly
3:26 bula old Nordberg never could catch a
3:30 break it was funny however as he just
3:32 kind of bounced jaggedly
3:34 down down this and then boom into the
3:38 air here's a pretty cool shot 1100 West
3:42 vin scully Avenue in downtown in the
3:46 background made my way down the hill now
3:48 I'm gonna get some dinner at Philippe's
3:51 some say this is the birthplace of the
3:55 French Dip sandwich and I am hungry and
3:58 this is what we're dealing with special
4:01 sauce here in this cylinder washing it
4:04 down with a coca-cola a side of potato
4:08 salad a dill pickle and take a look at
4:12 that
4:13 glorious singlet and of course can't
4:18 forget the dip itself
4:23 I'm not sure if they say they're the
4:25 best they say they're the first
4:28 fact I'm not the connoisseur of this but
4:30 I'm gonna give it my best
4:31 I've got to taste test
4:43 lots of baseball memorabilia inside here
4:47 as well
4:48 some old bobbleheads in this case and
4:51 photos if you decide to wear an apron
4:54 why not wear one with the logo on it you
4:57 can get here at the little gift shop as
4:59 well as t-shirts hats and some candy a
5:03 plethora of candy look how cute that
5:06 little guy is who couldn't love that guy
5:09 noticing the signage on these payphones
5:12 this is good to document because over
5:16 time they might not exist anymore check
5:18 it out it says removal pending
5:28 goodbye telephone this picture is of the
5:31 original owners mr. and mrs. Philippe
5:35 Matthew first operators of the famous
5:38 restaurant I also just notice on the
5:40 floor they have sawdust just to give the
5:44 the ambiance I'm sort of certain
5:47 ambiance the floor is completely filled
5:49 with sawdust and check this out right
5:53 outside the restaurant way back in the
5:56 day a train careened off the side of the
6:00 tracks and the bunker there's a big
6:02 Rubik's Cube right there in that
6:04 courtyard back on the corner of
6:06 Hollywood and Vine now and it appears as
6:09 if the haunted house is coming down any
6:14 wise the clown has finished his tenure
6:18 here on this street corner and the it
6:21 experience at least for Los Angeles has
6:27 come to an end the destruction cranes
6:30 are rearing their head and this will be
6:34 nothing more than an empty lot sooner
6:36 then later a couple random stars here
6:39 Wally Cox along the Boulevard and next
6:43 to him Michael York is embedded also in
6:48 the ground followed by Frankie Lane
7:00 and next is an unnamed star and some
7:00 things you'll see pretty often are
7:02 people will come out here with a sharpie
7:03 and they'll write their own name it's
7:05 kind of like give yourself your own
7:08 highlighted star on the Walk of Fame
7:11 next to Dorothy Gish I like this little
7:14 park on the corner of Ivar and Sal Mar
7:17 it's pretty interesting
7:19 looks like cactuses or trees and you can
7:24 sit at these and enjoy either a little
7:28 snack or a coffee share some time with
7:31 friends just don't get too close to the
7:34 cacti because you will you will get
7:38 pricked even though I think you know I
7:41 don't think these are real no they're
7:43 not real it's just made out of well you
7:44 could get a you could get a splinter
7:46 sure you could you could get a splinter
7:48 certain shirts that I wear will get more
7:50 comments than others like today for
7:52 example I'm wearing the one and only
7:54 Thom Adkins on the front of my torso
7:57 forgot to even had this shirt and I
7:59 found it tucked away in the closet
8:01 everyone that has come up and said what
8:03 the heck is that on the front of your
8:05 shirt
8:05 they all just assumed that it's the
8:07 creator of the Adkins diet so I just go
8:10 with it
8:10 I'll see you guys tomorrow vlog
8:17 I title each and every daily vlog in
8:17 numerical order for example 1894 1895 96
8:23 18 97 98 99
8:27 for some reason 1900 which was
8:30 yesterday's video YouTube was a little
8:33 bit wacky and did not put it in proper
8:36 correlation if that ever happens again
8:38 and you are confused just type in the
8:42 number you are looking for for example
8:44 the daily loo 1900 if you can't seem to
8:49 find it type it in the search bar and
8:51 then just hit enter and dun dun dun dah
8:57 all will be revealed
