Miggy 1:13

Yeah, welcome back to the Drifting on Arroyo podcast. This is Mig.

Lano 1:17

This is Lano. Rk67 has made it back to the building.

Miggy 1:24

He's backed like that rash you can't get rid of.

Lano 1:28

Man, what the hell? Hey, couple things A-hole, A-hole war. I'm not accepting that shit.

Ricky 1:39

Ralph, already accepted on your behalf.

Lano 1:41

Yeah, yeah, you know, and I'm not even gonna let him accept it on my behalf, because that's bullshit.

Miggy 1:50

No.

Lano 1:50

After the stunt you pulled Lionel by putting that yawning on when your dad was giving us full history. That was bullshit.

Ricky 2:02

I was enjoying hearing about the history of our street. I was even thinking about giving it to you today because of the whole ticket to the Askel before the game.

Lano 2:12

What ticket the extra?

Ricky 2:13

ticket you needed, and no, no, no, no, no, no. Luckily, you were able to sign it.

Lano 2:22

I'm not taking blame for any of that crap. You should know this dude wants to get a ticket for someone. He told me Ralph got a ticket and I had talked to Ralph saying it's cool. If we can't get a ticket right there near us, then it's cool, because what's the point of getting a ticket?

Miggy 2:37

You tell a completely different story.

Lano 2:41

And then you know what he tells me. So why did Ralph get the ticket? And then you know what.

Ricky 2:43

Because he was just trying to help out.

Lano 2:48

But I had told Ralph, if Danny wants to go to the game then don't trip, because the plan was if Danny didn't go then you would go sit with Ralph.

Miggy 2:59

No. But then even when he says for you to talk to me about the ticket for Vanessa's son, I'm like what? All of a sudden, you guys are going to kick me out of the game. I'm not going anymore.

Lano 3:12

You didn't even know you had a ticket.

Ricky 3:13

I didn't go out of the extra ticket.

Lano 3:15

That's why.

Miggy 3:16

I asked you. Nothing was implied. Nothing was enlisted it was all in your head. It's all your planning, you keep all your plans to yourself.

Ricky 3:27

Remember when you guys didn't respond when the tickets it said it had the seating chart and everything when I sent you guys the tickets. I gotta find it though.

Lano 3:38

I'm not taking blame for anything. I'm not taking blame. I have nothing to do with it.

Ricky 3:44

Look at the tickets right here.

Lano 3:45

Look, it's on the screen. I had nothing to do with it. What does it say?

Ricky 3:50

It says me and Laura, Ricky, Vanessa, Mickey, plus one Mark plus son, eight tickets.

Lano 3:56

Oh, mickey, plus one. You guys didn't look, I saw that right there. I mean there it is, I mean me and Vanessa. And then Mickey didn't know. But then Mark had mentioned just to take Andrew. But since I was taking Vanessa, I was like then you didn't know you had an extra ticket. That's why I asked you are you taking anyone? And you said you didn't know and you probably didn't realize that he had gotten you a plus one.

Ricky 4:26

So I asked you to go, since Me, I had your back the whole time, but behind your back, ricky was trying to use all your tickets.

Lano 4:32

Bullshit, dude. And I'm like dude, he's coming to the game no, no, no, no, no.

Ricky 4:37

And then I was like you have that extra ticket, and then he's like okay, we'll use that extra ticket.

Lano 4:41

He's like, yeah, if we, he goes, if we get that extra ticket, even though it's like two sections away, he goes, he goes if we get that ticket. You take the one of the boys who will sit by themselves. I'm like, dude, what's the?

Ricky 4:53

point of that dude I had, I hadn't even told you. I was like, cause you said you want to one, take out, it'll be even better to find two tickets, because then the boys could sit together and then we have that one.

Miggy 5:02

All right, let me. Let me ask you this, Rick Did you at any point ever say that it doesn't seem like I want to go to the game?

Ricky 5:09

No, oh, that's BS no.

Miggy 5:13

He said that that's why you should ask me for my ticket, because oh, you see that you didn't want to go, yeah.

Ricky 5:18

The day you called out sick for the show You're full of shit.

Miggy 5:21

The day you said that, that you say is like well, yeah, cause Mick doesn't seem like he wants to go, so maybe I'll ask him for his ticket. That's how you were all pumped about going. I was like what the hell dude the day he called out sick, ricky was like, oh, I'm going to see me.

Ricky 5:36

I don't think he really wants to go. And then when you came back I was like you want to go to the game, right?

Lano 5:40

Okay. So me knowing that you have two tickets and I'm going to say, oh, he doesn't seem like he wants to go. So what are going to happen with those two tickets? No, if I'm trying to get a ticket for, for, for, for Trevor, because I'm going to see if you're going to take someone, yeah, I go now. Now, there's going to be two tickets available.

Ricky 5:58

That was what I'm going to do with your ticket. I told you, mick, you had that extra ticket. You didn't know he had an extra ticket and I was like, mick, you have the extra ticket.

Lano 6:04

So why would I tell you that he didn't want to go there? That would mean there would be two available tickets.

Ricky 6:08

But you didn't know he had two. You thought he had one.

Lano 6:09

No, I knew he had a plus one.

Ricky 6:11

No, he didn't Dude, but why were you asking me for the extra ticket? If you knew he had the plus one, you had the extra ticket.

Lano 6:17

I asked you if cause? Mark asked if we can get another ticket for his wife.

Ricky 6:22

No, no but this is from the beginning.

Lano 6:24

And then you said well, mick, he asked me because he has his plus one, I go, all right, I go. I don't know if Mick is going to take someone. That's what I told you.

Ricky 6:34

You're going now.

Miggy 6:35

No His wife.

Ricky 6:36

now, I don't know.

Miggy 6:38

I think we need to settle this backyard wrestling style.

Lano 6:40

The bullshit, the point is you're not sticking

Ricky 6:43

with this table.

Lano 6:44

Not sticking me with this.

Ricky 6:45

First, Ricky needed an extra ticket for Trevor.

Lano 6:49

No, the beginning. And then from the very beginning, you got me a ticket for me and for Vanessa, right, and that was it. That was it. Mark was going to take Andrew, and that was it. Meagie was going to take his plus one, and you and Laura, but you didn't even know what the plus one is for right now.

Lano 7:08

As the game went on, vanessa was going to step out and let Trevor go in her place, since it was Mark and Andrew, and then I was going to take Trevor, and then Meag had his plus one, you had you and Laura. But now I asked Meagie, I go. Hey, are you going to take? I asked Vanessa. I asked Vanessa, I go. Let me ask Meagie if he's going to take someone. If he doesn't take someone, then we can take, we can all go. I go, I go, trevor can go and you can go.

Ticket Dilemmas and Blame Game

Lano 7:36

And that's when I text you, mick, I go, are you taking anyone to the game? And you're like, oh, I didn't even know, I had an extra ticket. Yeah, he's like yeah, and then he goes all right, you can have the. Yeah, you can have the ticket. So, and then, after all, that got squared away, mark. That's when Mark texts and I text you saying, hey, can we get, is there possible to get another ticket around that area, around that section? And you're like, oh, yeah, let me guess, let me think, or whatever. And then you, you, you involved Ralph asking for his ticket because you started saying that Danny, danny was on the fence of going, which was probably bullshit, because Danny was probably going to go the whole time and you were spreading rumors. No, I asked.

Lano 8:14

And then you came up saying like, oh, they can get a ticket, like in another section. I'm like no, I go. That's not the point, that that's I go. You're going to take someone for their first, the first game, and then you're going to split one person, like away from the group, and like no man, it's cool. And I told you, and I even told Ralph, like if, if, if, Danny, if Danny goes to school, it's no biggie.

Ricky 8:36

The day that Ralph joined the show, I told them that we're going to the game and then if he had an extra ticket and he's like, oh, I already invited Danny, but he hasn't gotten back to me, If he says no, then then I'll have an, an extra ticket, ticket for me and I'm just like well, I want me to sit with us.

Ricky 8:53

but I was like all right. So then then later then I called them and then he's like the next day he's like oh, danny hasn't gotten back to me. And I was like all right, so I think we're already like on Friday. Then he's like Danny's coming, but I'm going to hit up Kobe. And I was like all right. Like then then, after he's like I bought a ticket, does Ricky need it? And I was like well, I don't talk to Rick, like talk to.

Lano 9:17

Rick, and he never talked to me.

Ricky 9:19

And then then I even told you, I said Ralph bought a ticket, but like I'm I don't know how much it is, I don't either said he bought a ticket. And then and I was like, talk to him and I'll. And then you're like where is that? No, you had brought it up.

Lano 9:30

You had brought it up that that we can get a ticket.

Ricky 9:34

I said in another section.

Lano 9:36

I'm like no dude, that's not the that's, and then you have bought it up. I don't even think he had bought the ticket yet.

Ricky 9:43

No, no, he texted me up, for I mean.

Lano 9:45

I, I, because I, when you brought it up, I'm like no, dude, don't, don't get it, we're not going to get a ticket, that's too sick, a ticket that's two sections over, because I even had text Mark. I go hey, the only, the only tickets available are like single tickets and they're not even in our section. And then Mark texted me, is like I don't worry, he's like all right, I'll let him, you know, but then I never heard anything. And then you know, ricky.

Ricky 10:07

Texas. I need a ticket and I go here's the seats, this is where we're at. Like find a ticket. And then he's like oh, can you look for me?

Lano 10:16

No, I said well you you already know.

Ricky 10:18

You already know how to navigate through all this shit and I was like, well, I'll try it, but I was like there's, there's like you know nothing next to it.

Lano 10:25

And I told you look at, and I told you one road, two roads, three roads, three limit how far can? You go, oh my God, one, one ticket. I told them it was for Mark's wife, so what? What does that tell you? I go, you're going to buy a whole roll of seats, of tickets, or what?

Ricky 10:40

Well, that's what I'm saying. I mean, I got eight tickets. You weren't happy.

Lano 10:43

If, if, if you look at, if you look at the section where we're at Okay, If you look at the section where we're at and there's nothing available, okay, you just say there's nothing, there's nothing available and I told you that two days in a row I was like there's nothing available. And I left it at that. And then what did you do? You involved Ralph. Bullshit, you're not giving me that.

Miggy 11:05

No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not, I'm not. I'm not taking that award because you, you wore yours for last week, or whatever. I'm not even accepting that one. Now, bullshit, bullshit.

Lano 11:17

Not, not, not after you guys started, not after you guys started talking about it's time for the drifting. Nah, you're, you're getting that one.

Ricky 11:25

You're getting that one.

Lano 11:26

You're getting that one no we're giving it to Mark. No, we're giving it to Mark for the last minute.

Ricky 11:32

Not giving us the total count from the very beginning?

Lano 11:35

Yeah, from the very beginning and, and you know what he's slick, he's letting us go out of each other with this whole thing. When it was his fault, because he should have included his wife in that, all he said was like, oh yeah. And he and we have them on the message.

Ricky 11:48

Yeah.

Lano 11:48

On the message he says oh yeah, so what, what? What did we cheer for? Like, what, what did we go? Or whatever. You know, like you know, I want to take my boy, Andrew, and that's all he said. That's all he said.

Ricky 11:58

That's all he said. So we got, so Mark gets it, so it's it's, it's Mark's fault.

Lano 12:02

Give him the award. All right, and I'm not accepting last week's award, not not after you guys. You guys rag on me and then you start talking about oh, remember this part. This was funny. And then this was funny, like forget you guys. And then Mark, and then Mark, and then Mark said, and then Mark said, um, oh yeah, I saw the movie and I was like, well, he was just saying that to, just to get a route out of me.

Miggy 12:26

Well, you're looking, all the girls are the nominee to you and I have good grounds to nominate you.

Ricky 12:31

I still want to, and then after all that at the end of the game Ricky's like, hey, can you do this again Like season tickets.

Lano 12:39

He's like.

Ricky 12:40

I'm going to put you in charge.

Lano 12:41

You're the ticket guy and I was like whatever, that's what he said.

Ricky 12:45

You're in charge of that.

Lano 12:46

The tickets Me and Mark, right there, were saying like, dude, we should off the go, and you had mentioned it. Dude, you mentioned it first about getting together and pitching in for fucking season tickets. You, that was your idea. And then I told Mark is like hey, we should probably do what Lano says. And like we all get together and chip in for a season ticket. He's like yeah, he goes, I'm down, I'm down and I tell Lano and I tell Lano like hey, your homework, like messing around, like your homework is to find and get pricing for this and tell us how much we owe you.

Miggy 13:18

You know what? I'm going to put them up for the A-hole of the Shawl Ward too. Yeah, because the thing is that one week he put me and you up, so I get to be too.

Lano 13:27

Yeah, no, he gets it yeah.

Miggy 13:28

Him and Mark get it too.

Lano 13:29

Him and Mark get it this week. You're going to accept that shit. You're not going to them.

Miggy 13:42

It's time for the drifting A-hole award. Yeah, and it's Lano, yeah, lano.

Ricky 13:50

Mark and Lano.

Miggy 13:51

Mark the shark. My reasons for Lano is because you guys didn't see a lot of it, but I did, because I was with him and Laura the whole day. What? So, first off this fool. His wife is with child. He's having the second child.

Lano 14:10

Yeah.

Miggy 14:11

So he makes her stand in line for the food while he's doing who knows what.

Ricky 14:17

She was going up to the bathroom and she's asking me you want something? I was like, oh, if you want, like.

Miggy 14:24

No, at the restaurant, at the Mercado. Yeah, so it makes her do everything.

Ricky 14:30

No, I ordered the food. I told you Okay, so then we get to the stadium and he's all about his stupid bobblehead that he wants.

Lano 14:41

So he's making his pregnant wife walk double time so he can get there on time to get his damn bobblehead yeah you definitely get the A-Warp, because not only are you rushing Laura, and then you're blaming Miggy for his his gift leg that you. That's the reason you didn't get your bubble.

Miggy 15:01

I own my gimpy leg because that was falling behind. I was just going to go. I'll fight and I'll find my way over there.

Lano 15:06

But never mind, like half of the stadium already in line to get the bubble Go ahead.

Miggy 15:11

Okay, so that's part two. Part three this fool makes his wife go up to the concession stand buy us beers, while she gets a stink eye from everybody in the stadium because she looks like she's buying beers.

Ricky 15:33

Oh, it was no. She says you guys want to think and then I told her no. And I was like no, no, no, don't get us like you said, he said.

Miggy 15:41

he said we're going to go get beers right now. So I'm like, ok, well, go in on it, we'll go get beers Wow.

Ricky 15:46

She's surprised and brought him anyway, nah, I think you probably text her assumption.

Miggy 15:50

Told you better bring beers. No, no, no.

Ricky 15:53

Laura call in.

Miggy 15:54

So then there's that.

Ricky 15:55

Truth.

Miggy 15:56

The final straw, dude, the final final straw. You're such a piece of crap. He is, dude, he is. And Mike, I know he raised them better than that, but, dude, I don't know where you went wrong.

Lano 16:07

I don't know. Piece of monkey crap.

Miggy 16:09

The final straw. We're walking back to the car. We must have passed about 10 testers that all look alike. This dude's telling me, you know, it's not that one, not that one, not that one. So I finally get to the one that we're getting to, you know. Oh, and then, at the very beginning, he forces his wife to sit in the back so I could be in the front.

Ricky 16:29

Well, this is the front. There's more room, there's more room. I was trying to get you comfortable. So then we're getting to the car.

Miggy 16:35

One of us always sits in the back for the baby. So then we get to the car, you know, and they're both sitting on the same side, on the driver's side, and this is just goes and like he goes to get into his car. I'm like dude, how about opening the door for your pregnant wife?

Lano 16:51

Yeah, man you know you're a piece of crap, you're an a-hole, yeah. Well, he got me at the door, his when, when you guys are walking into the stadium, he wasn't dragging her by her hair.

Miggy 17:01

Practically.

Ricky 17:05

You got me at the door because I was like in game mode, I just shut up, you shut up.

Miggy 17:10

Even Laura turned around and says right, so you never do it. I want a jerk.

Lano 17:16

But yeah, you get that. Sorry, your third one to the third one, no you can't nominate.

Miggy 17:21

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Ricky 17:24

Disclosure he didn't tell me that they get still gimpy and we missed the bobblehead.

Miggy 17:29

Mr Bobblehead, this guy is full of shit. I'm telling you, man, no, it's time You're. Yours doesn't hold water. It's not my wife. He knew how this guy was.

Ricky 17:40

I thought she wanted this guy and then we were waiting for me. Nope.

Lano 17:44

No, this is. This guy is such a bullshitter. Yeah, you always mislead everybody, man, everybody, and then and then all of our lives are. People are like why are you treating them?

Miggy 17:58

like that.

Recollection of Past Events

Lano 17:58

I go do, because you don't see how he really is. Try to say what the real eight hole he really is man, so man. But every time Right, the lowest, the lowest is making. The lowest thing that you did that day Is making it over. Go buy that the beer, yeah.

Ricky 18:19

I agree she, she did surprise us. She's like why did you get it? She's like, oh, I just covered my jacket, I covered my, my man, I'll hold. You know, I felt bad kids, the. We left the baby at home and I saw so many babies at the stadium. So I'll give myself a whole word for leaving the baby at home because I saw, I saw a lot of a lot of babies and Ellie would have a good time. It's time for the drifting A whole award.

Lano 18:54

Yeah.

Ricky 18:54

So this is the only one I'd probably accept with with honor.

Miggy 18:57

No, you're good, except all. Of you can accept all of them.

Ricky 19:00

Well too, yeah. And then I like I didn't get the door, I was just game mode, I just turned crazy game the mood. It's too Game mode. Oh, so I guess we'll we got one phone call, get through the phone call and then we'll just jump into our day when, on Sunday, yeah, yeah.

Lano 19:18

Great, I was going to clear up one thing, but it's all right.

Ricky 19:22

What is it?

Lano 19:22

Well, go now, it's nothing for the story I heard last week OK, it was Maggie, Maggie what when he told the Ventura story?

Ricky 19:31

Well, let's get all the airs. This is all the magic.

Lano 19:34

Yeah, he is this. This dude was talking about all. He pinned me and whatever he laid you out.

Miggy 19:40

My legs were right there when he laid you out, he laid you out.

Lano 19:45

He says he couldn't, he get pushed him on, he couldn't bench, press them out, because maybe was on the ground trying to push that fat, that little fat midget, off of him. Yeah, that's what I said. No, you said he rushed me and he pinched me.

Ricky 19:55

He he, he, he, he, he took all your legs or your legs, gave on the stage or something.

Lano 19:59

Yeah, he, that, he, that he. He my back was, he pressed the stage or something.

Miggy 20:04

But he was at the height of the back of my knees. He hit me and then pinned me on the stage.

Lano 20:09

He laid you out, dude, he laid you out.

Miggy 20:14

Whatever?

Lano 20:14

don't downplay that.

Miggy 20:15

Whatever dude.

Lano 20:18

And yeah, but Um, ralph did throw that phantom punch. Um, danny was giving left hooks to that dude that was feeling on the bus.

Ricky 20:31

Well, he was part of your group, yeah, yeah, that little lady.

Miggy 20:35

Oh those, those fools went with us.

Ricky 20:37

Oh, there were just snappers, dude. Oh, I thought they're like they didn't know, you guys.

Lano 20:41

No, they didn't know how small he is. He was probably pissed because Miggie was in varsity and he was in bees, so that too. So I think I didn't know.

Ricky 20:51

No, he was in the entourage of the part of the group.

Lano 20:53

No, he was on the bus with us because even when we were leaving the show, like he sat on the bus and he was all like covering his eye, holding his eye. He was like in pain.

Ricky 21:04

So that brought happened. Then you guys, the skull got in the bus together and went home.

Lano 21:07

Yeah, yeah.

Ricky 21:10

Yeah, I mean I went on a couple but I never went on the bus we drove out there.

Lano 21:16

Yeah.

Ricky 21:16

We've been through. Yeah, we drove out there, but I never took the bus trips.

Lano 21:20

The bus, like after like the first one, people started getting, like getting all the seats.

Ricky 21:27

You got to reserve the seats, so they were fun, good times and we got to have a join us when Ralph comes on. You always like I know.

Lano 21:39

Ralph, I'm surprised you guys didn't bring, you guys didn't bring up the the on the bus trip. Well, I mean, we still got to talk about when he, when he had climbed up in the damn storage in the bus.

Miggy 21:51

That's what I think Danny had asked me.

Lano 21:54

If yeah, the bus driver got all pissed, oh, he said about Ralph's climbing up to the speakers and doing his.

Miggy 22:02

Oh, the the hardy, the hardy, yeah the hardy boys dive.

Ricky 22:06

Well, I'm going to, I'm going to add it to the list. Yeah, so we can tell him.

Lano 22:14

Yeah his stage dive his stage dive and then he was also climbing into the over compartments of the bus. This is the bus driver got over his the overhead.

Ricky 22:25

Yeah, I put a bus human carry on. Look at it to the notes. So when he comes, yeah, but I think we have to, I think we have. Maybe you have to catch him quick because he's his daughter's starting wrestling and then he's going to be busy.

Miggy 22:40

Oh yeah, that's crazy, that's bad, that's the catch him before. I mean we actually we should have recorded all that conversation we had after. Yeah, it could have been a whole other.

Lano 22:49

Yeah, I was going to you. Lot on you. Oh, you got to shut up, dude.

Ricky 22:54

No, that's what my wife told me when someone's on the.

Lano 22:56

Ricky 22:59

I thought he was stopping.

Lano 23:00

I thought, like we're going to have no, like you were going to ask him something, but then you just start cutting him off.

Ricky 23:05

Yeah, that's what my wife said. She's like, yeah, let the guest talk, and that I was talking over him. But but I just thought, like I know, I thought he was kind of like shy and he wasn't speaking.

Lano 23:16

Oh, you didn't even let him get in, getting the zone or whatever.

Ricky 23:22

He didn't like continue, didn't seem like like. I kind of felt like we're pulling teeth a little bit.

Lano 23:26

Well then, you're not doing your job because you're not following up questions or carrying the conversation.

Miggy 23:32

You know short little.

Lano 23:32

And then we, then we start telling the story, then you cut them off and you finish the story.

Ricky 23:37

He's like all right well all right, I'm going to, I'm going to have. Well, when you guys are both here, we'll have me and you guys do more than you. So then I could get back and get to the producing, because it gets too many hats for me, but I could get back to the, so I did like you're overwhelmed.

Miggy 23:55

He's telling too many hats don't fit that big swollen head of yours. Stories.

Ricky 23:59

And I got to, like you know, add sound effects or this and that, but like I can't, like I got to like see if he's dying down or keep, keep the story going or what. But I'm like I could have found some midget noises for Mickey story. What the hell's a midget?

Lano 25:21

No, I think he has his work phone and his personal phone, so he might have, he might have. He might have called off his work phone and then I was talking to him on his personal phone so he probably had me on speaker somehow recording on his work phone, the hotline and that's how he got it. Oh, I mean you said, you said, he touched the board.

Ricky 25:46

He touched the board, my sailor mouth.

Lano 25:48

And then, like I'm listening, and then, as I'm listening, and you guys are talking about it, saying that oh, don't send me shit like that again. It was a waste of my time. And yada, yada, yada. And I was going to call right that moment, I go no, let me see what else they're going to say. And then, as I'm hearing it more, and then I start hearing you guys like, oh yeah, boy, this part of Paladelo comes out with a funny and also the movie you guys are talking about how funny this part was.

Lano 27:10

And then I told I explained to Mark I go, oh, even Markos. I played a little bit for Markos. Markos was thinking about watching it, but he was like no man, he goes. These guys convinced me not to watch it. I was like, dude, I go the movie. I'm not telling you guys, I didn't send it. Send the movie not to watch the movie, watch the movie review. Because what the guy is saying is funny. He's like, oh, and then I paid a little bit from is like all right, all right, I'll listen to it and I go.

Miggy 29:51

I reserved the right to criticize it because I sat through the whole thing. You see, this dude, yeah, unbelievable dude, but I did qualify it. I said it was funny. I said the dude was funny, but the stupid movie.

Lano 30:04

I couldn't stand watching those scenes of the movie, yeah, but I would never, even though if I caught this movie and I was watching it and I saw how stupid it was and how horrible it was filmed, and the dialogue and everything, the story Well, your text.

Lano 30:21

And even though if I watched this and I told you guys I would never send that movie the actual movie dude, watch this movie. Like it's hilarious, how horrible this thing is, like. No, I sent you the movie review of this guy just giving you the cliff notes. I would never send some crap like that.

Lano 31:19

He's arrested.

Ricky 31:20

Oh, they arrested him. Who was it?

Lano 31:22

It's this guy, keith ED, someone's cousin.

Miggy 31:27

Ricky 31:28

He was in the car, but he was the brother of that.

Lano 31:32

Orlando guy? I don't know.

Discussion About Past Events and Photography

Miggy 31:33

I heard he was like the cousin or something.

Lano 31:35

But this has been going on for I don't know how many years, giving interviews, getting all this clout you know. He's the only one that's left alive from the incident. So he was saying that, oh yeah, the shots came from the backseat, like they're trying to get him to say, like everyone's trying to take credit for that, even cops that were on the scene. They want to say like, oh yeah, it's so and so.

Ricky 31:57

Because there was one guy, like you said, who was a witness and they've been like talking to him, so they arrested him, that guy.

Lano 32:06

Keith ED. He was the one that said like the shots happened in the backseat, or whatever. And now I guess some of the people are saying that, like now, puffy's like shitting it because he's going to be the next guy to go. They're going to go after the cops, yeah the cops after Pee, after Diddy, because he's the one that ordered it or ordered the hit, and this guy's. That's what this guy's in plain, but I don't know. This guy's wanting to get that clout. I was in the car with the good man that killed.

Lano 32:43

Tupac and cops want to be like. Oh yeah, I was one the last there on the scene when Tupac was shot, but he was a little bit conscious before he went into a coma and everyone was just trying to get there 15 minutes.

Miggy 32:59

And I'm going to piss a lot of people off out there, but I can care less. I was never a fan of.

Ricky 33:06

Tupac, don't say that, I just said it.

Miggy 33:11

I'll say it again.

Ricky 33:13

I mean, you can say you don't believe in whatever, but don't say that Don't break my heart like that Don't hurt me. So 96, where were you at what stage you're at in high school already, right?

Lano 34:13

They used to get him and they lived in that whole area. They would get promoting an event and they would have like a tamborazo there. That's probably the last time I was there.

Miggy 34:30

Remember we used to do with Lewis, with Chach, we would do a lot of those promotions for Ruby Red, squirt or like that one company that did like a lot of like sample giveaways and stuff. I think that was one time when I went to the Tepi Griever Sports Arena to help him. How long did he do that? He did it for a few years.

Ricky 34:52

That's when he had the Ruby.

Lano 34:53

Red Truck.

Ricky 35:03

They're not around right. Ruby Red Squirt.

Lano 35:04

No, no it was like a couple summers I don't know if it was just because he had it all the time and he got tired of it. Got tired of it, yeah.

We're telling facts on this show.

Lano 40:14

You never tell facts, shut up.

Sunday at LAFC game BMO Stadium

Ricky 40:17

Only facts on the podcast. So let's get to our Sunday, our big Sunday, three months in the making.

Lano 40:25

Yeah, we finally got Mickey out to a game three months in the making, really.

Ricky 40:29

Well, that's when I ordered the tickets. It was an advance, yeah.

Lano 40:32

We got a good day Got me to the LA.

Miggy 40:35

I've seen yeah man, I really enjoyed it. I really enjoyed that game, even though we lost. You know that sucks, but, man, I want you to experience it. I want to say, I want to relate this experience almost to like seeing a hockey game live.

Lano 40:55

Yeah.

Miggy 40:56

Because you can watch it on TV, but you can't get the full appreciation for it unless you're there.

Lano 41:01

Yeah.

Miggy 41:02

Like because the hockey it's so fast, it's so hard hitting, you know it's so brutal and everything you know. But the difference with with LAFC home game, it's the atmosphere, man. I mean, it's the energy that's in that stadium. It's just, it's crazy, it's infectious yeah.

Lano 41:24

You know for Vanessa, she was loving that 3252.

Miggy 41:28

Yeah, you know. And then the seats. I'll give you a little bit of props on the seats, because the seats were awesome.

Lano 41:35

Yeah.

Miggy 41:35

I really love those seats.

Ricky 41:37

I mean, it's getting lucky and we don't have nothing. Ok, well, forget you then.

Lano 41:43

So stupid luck.

Miggy 41:44

Yeah, but yeah, man, I mean just hearing that 3252, man and hearing them the whole game just brings that energy man in those drums. You know just like it's. It's wild, you know, I can imagine being in the section, it's like that, that we were on the opposite end of them, you know, and that like kind of gets you into it. It's like you want to, you want to. It's like you can't hear the chant clearly, so you want to know what they're saying, you know. So it's like just go on YouTube and look up the chance and everything and that's what Mingi was doing.

Miggy 42:21

Yeah.

Lano 42:23

Because the chance were staying in his head.

Ricky 42:25

Yeah, Now, and normally, like I mean, it's a hard place for us to like lose, Like where's the tie? Normally, Normally, like I think we've only lost maybe a handful there.

Lano 42:35

And and it's just because that game, like we were the Grecious, the whole damn game. Yeah, we're always like setting up taking shots on.

Miggy 42:45

But what pisses me off Is that that dude from Salt Lake, number nine, that pussy, oh yeah.

Ricky 42:53

He's flopping and shit.

Miggy 42:55

And he's asked what scored the goal. That's part of the one for them.

Ricky 42:58

And you know, last year he was, he was on our team and he was like our number one score.

Miggy 43:02

He was oh shit.

Ricky 43:05

So that's why the fans are kind of like, like. I mean they like when he scored, like when you, when you score against your former team, you're not supposed to celebrate. That's why he just put his head down like he didn't celebrate. Oh, that's like a soccer tradition. But like the fans are like I mean people had his jerseys out, like there. But yeah, I mean it sucks, I mean every look, look at him score, but like you suck to see him score but.

Lano 43:31

They're goalie, though man, he was, he was, he was getting his.

Miggy 43:35

He got about three nice saves, yeah, so I did, they did, it was, it was, it was, it was a good game, it was a good match.

Lano 43:44

You know, you know it was. It was close, Like when I've gone with with Ralph, and the first game that I went with this guy it was seven o'clock games and it's so. It's already dark, dark, right, and the games kind of almost already started and 32, 52 is already going. So as you're approaching the turn to go inside, you hear the damn drums.

Ricky 44:03

No, I'm like the stadium sounds.

Lano 44:06

Sounds badass. And you hear from the outside because you're walking up you hear those drums and the chance going already like, oh man, it's the way everything's lit up.

Miggy 44:15

Yeah, it's imagine it feels like the good old days in Oakland when you're walking through the hallways after a win. And you just in unison, you just hear the raiders and the things, just like your whole body's vibrating because everybody's saying that at the same time. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was cool man.

Lano 44:35

Yeah, it was, it was fun. Yeah, mark, mark Was probably going to get kicked out. He tried to steal from Ruth. Oh, both, this lady, ruth, this lady that works there.

Miggy 44:52

We went up, we went up there there were series of nachos or whatever. Yeah, it was, she had. She had that ball. It's like a half a soccer ball.

Lano 45:00

Yeah, it's a half a soccer ball, but she had something like I don't know. She had like like white peas in it or something. She has something like this. She was giving people right as they're walking out and she had just set it down and we went to go get beers and chips for the boys and as we're walking out, like Mark had lost, he saw the ball there and he goes back and he gets the boy, puts the chips in there and some napkins.

Lano 45:25

He's walking away. He's like, oh yeah, he goes, hell yeah he goes, I got a ball. And then the lady Ruth sees him and she yells at him. She's like I know you're not taking my ball or I know you don't have my ball. And he turns around, he gets caught and she's just giving him a mean, dirty look, dude, he's going back. He's going back. Oh man, he goes. I don't know. I don't know what he was telling her. No, mark, freaking klepto.

Lano 45:51

And then we were like I'm going to have to watch my yeah, she was just like giving a mean dirty look and we, and that was the same way we had to go down right where she was at.

Ricky 46:02

That's where we had to go down to our seats.

Lano 46:05

But I thought it was in the next section over, and so we will go walking over there and we noticed that no, it was back the other way. So we walked back. We had to walk past her again. She sees Mark coming back and she's just giving him a dirty look and then Mark's all like come on, ruth. He's all like come on, he goes, it's all good, we're good. I was like man, I go. Vanessa's all like we can't take you nowhere has anybody ever been banned from the

Lano 46:35

stadium Because Mark might be the first one. He is dude. He was trying to steal that half.

Ricky 46:41

And normally like like I mean, all you saw is like a family, like experience, like there's nobody like you know out of control. Yeah, that's cool yeah that's what's cool.

Miggy 46:51

It's like nobody nobody's in there, like nobody's really belligerent. You know there's nobody. Like falling down drunk, and you know it was cool. Yeah, you know, it's like it seems like everybody in there really knows the game and like really follows the game, and you know they're there just to have a good time. Yeah, you know, watch their team win.

Ricky 47:14

So now you had you've seen the stadium before, like just the outside, or you've been just driving by it, so like seeing when it was built was different the way, like you expected. That's what you thought it was going to be, your, or was it 32, 52 bigger than what you thought? Because I know you're. You're asking me is it this one section or these three?

Miggy 47:31

Well, yeah, I mean I thought it was just like one aisle, but I didn't know it was going to be like the whole North end.

Ricky 47:37

Yeah, you know, it's like it's actually it was five aisles, but then you actually hear it like here's the chance, Like you think it's just like, oh, in the background, but you hear it like you hear it on TV when you watch the games, like when they're at home. You hear it in the background and it sets the rhythm, like for our players, and sets the pace.

Miggy 47:54

It's like and that actually like now. It makes sense because when, when I watched like other World Cups and everything like the one where they have those, those stupid plastic horns- they're going through the whole game.

Ricky 48:05

I forgot what they're called.

Miggy 48:06

Yeah, those are.

Ricky 48:08

Gazelia or something. Yeah, Voo, Voo Zalias.

Miggy 48:11

or some shit like that. I don't know, but like now, now you know, you know it's like why they were going through the whole game, because probably everybody in there is like all hyped up and blowing those stupid things, you know. So, yeah, that's pretty crazy man.

Ricky 48:26

Yeah, the stadium's five years old. I feel like it still looks brand new. Yeah, Surprisingly it's only like 20,000 people or 22,000.

Miggy 48:35

I mean the thing is it felt like the game, the environment, just the whole experience it. It's like it's almost like something nostalgic, because it's like it seemed, like it's still pure. Right yeah, Like you know like it hasn't been corrupted by any bullshit outside the sport.

Lano 48:58

It's, it's really like it belongs to the, to the people.

Ricky 49:03

Yeah.

Lano 49:04

The you know San Angel is the community.

Miggy 49:06

Yeah, that's what it feels like you know, and, and and you could, you could tell that, like by the 32, 52, all the flags are represented and everything you know.

Lano 49:15

so it's like yeah, you know, it's like and when we walked around, we walked around, I went to go show Mark those the photos and show Vic his his photo, his photo Kobe's photo. Yeah, on the side I was like, look, this is this is a. Ralph's brother. He's one of the main dudes.

Ricky 49:30

Where we're really at like, in the hallways, or where what.

Lano 49:34

The photos right there on the side of 32, 52.

Ricky 49:36

Oh, oh, oh, because I think Robbie said there's some in one of the restaurants or the clubs or something like that.

Lano 49:44

Well, probably, yeah, probably, but no, they haven't. Right on the side of the 32, 52, right by the trophy. Then we we took a picture in front of the trophy to the big one yeah. The the cup.

Ricky 49:59

And look, look, we got eight seats and like the ticket prices was like 40 bucks each.

Lano 50:03

I mean that that you could like take a family like you know, I mean, I mean, those damn seats were no seats. We're good seats, Like yeah, those are really good. So 40 bucks yeah.

Ricky 50:14

And yeah, I mean, I found them, you know, like three months before.

Miggy 50:17

And you know because, like like, vanessa doesn't watch soccer, but we're all like you know we were all like oh man, it's like and I kind of kind of loosely know like the rules and like some of it and stuff. But I mean, and I'm sure, if I start paying more attention and learn more, yeah it's going to be more exciting.

Lano 50:40

We were, we were, we were happy because that's some good IPA's there.

Miggy 50:45

Yeah. All of that Logger, that they have the Mexican logger.

Lano 50:50

Yeah.

Miggy 50:51

Like whatever it's, like the one that they make for the team. Yeah, yeah that that show is pretty good.

Ricky 50:56

Yeah, that was my favorite.

Miggy 50:58

But, like, as far as you were saying about the stadium, like one of my expectations, it's like everything. It's like you go to a football game. You're like damn the field looks way bigger on TV.

Lano 51:09

Yeah.

Miggy 51:10

And it's like you see the pitch and you're like, damn, there's like it seems like they're running for miles man when they're when they're running up and down.

Lano 51:17

But what's crazy is, you know, you know the skills that these guys have with the footwork, but once you're there, you're actually seeing it the warmups, the ball looks like it's just floating. How they're able to just tap it up. You know that's crazy. They're warming up. I mean, I swear that ball looks like it's just like floating, like if it's in space, and they're just like like if it's a like, if it's a balloon. Yeah, that's what it looks like.

Miggy 51:43

So I'm saying, even when they were bouncing like off their head, it looks like it's pillow soft.

Lano 51:47

Yeah, yeah, you know when some of those shots, man, when they were shooting up into the crowd.

Ricky 51:54

Oh, when they were practicing beforehand.

Miggy 51:56

Yeah, oh, now you're practicing during the game, during the game.

Ricky 52:00

Oh, hit somebody on the side.

Miggy 52:01

That one that was off to the, to the right side, yeah.

Lano 52:03

Yeah.

Miggy 52:04

That one, that like a mean line drive to like the maybe like fourth or fifth roll.

Lano 52:08

I said, someone lost it.

Miggy 52:10

I suck it on that one.

Lano 52:13

Yeah, those are. Those are damn good seeds.

Ricky 52:15

This is Wednesday. I just like to see what.

Lano 52:17

Hey, what was? What was the game? It was an important game for them, for a position.

Ricky 52:29

Yeah, well, right now we're in third place and then we lost, so we're still in third place. So we're trying to win to get on home field advantage, because that's a mix of a difference in the playoffs. So there, I think there's only like three games left. So there's one on Wednesday, that is the last home game, and then I think I guess two on the road. Oh, so yeah, so one more home game, yeah, so we're just trying to get on, like you know, home field advantage.

Lano 52:52

How many, how many games during the season?

Ricky 52:56

It was like 35.

Miggy 52:57

Ralph, you said he sees the tickets for like 16 or 17 games. Yeah, so you figure about 34, 35.

Ricky 53:04

Yeah, I don't know, I'm there, including. He said those like exit, exit exhibition games.

Lano 53:09

Oh, when he said one preseason game. Yeah, preseason games.

Ricky 53:13

So so he's like 17 or 16 home games.

Lano 53:17

Mark, mark, they were going to buy, they're going to buy, Um, one of the scarves, and I think Andrew wanted a jersey or something. Well, a hoodie, a hoodie. Well, he's like, nah, he goes. You know what? We got to come to one more game, because that way we official that you know he was. We got to wait, we got to, we got to come to one more game.

Miggy 53:39

And then I was wondering, like what's the actual deal with scarves Like?

Ricky 53:44

how did?

Miggy 53:44

that.

Lano 53:46

I guess tradition start.

Miggy 53:47

Yeah.

Lano 53:49

Do you know how it came about? Yeah, he doesn't know.

Ricky 53:51

I asked him soccer thing, I don't know.

Lano 53:53

Be sad, I think it's a soccer thing, and I'm thinking you know, it might be something like European is it's kind of like how much are tickets to go watch the galaxy? I don't know, I mean I would, I would, I would want to see.

Miggy 54:13

Experience a game over there.

Lano 54:14

But see how it feels.

Miggy 54:15

Yeah.

Lano 54:15

Like does it feel like this is not, this is not LA, like this doesn't feel like an LA team. Maybe I don't know.

Miggy 54:23

Yeah, but I wouldn't have forgotten Carson, so yeah.

Ricky 54:27

Yeah, no, after like like I guess it came out with the clubs and stuff. Then, like the, the galaxy, they try to make like a section like that, but it just like wasn't the same, like they try to make a standing room section and then they flopped.

Lano 54:45

Yeah, I mean, it's just wasn't when, when LAFC goes over there, a galaxy comes over here, mm. Hmm, those, those games are sold out.

Ricky 54:54

Yeah, it's like the biggest, the biggest ticket in town and then they're they're like rivals rivals, like high scoring games like five to three, like you know, four or three, like there's a lot of goals there in those games they have I think they have the MLS record for most goals, like per like.

Miggy 55:10

For rivalry.

Lano 55:11

Yeah.

Ricky 55:12

Wow they're always talking about because they're like the score is always, like you know, five to five, three like, and no matter who's like having a good year, like the other team still like you know, like wins or still like puts up a good fight, like right now the Galaxy like they're doing bad and they've already like beat us twice and they're like almost in last place right now, but it's like you know.

Ricky 55:35

this is around. I think it's year five. I think Roger's a Galaxy fan and the Galaxy, like their fan base, is getting smaller and smaller. I think they're all like turning over. Yeah but see, rogers is cuz the dowsy like the People, the games?

Lano 55:51

no, no, cuz he was those original team, I guess.

Ricky 55:53

Like see, like I want to take Rochester game, see if we could like flip them like you know.

Lano 55:57

See how he might have already been to an LFC game.

Ricky 56:00

I'm not sure if he has a lot of cuz. I mean, once people go like it, like it changes their minds highly recommended people. I mean, I really recommend it and you know I grew up with. You know Dodgers and Lakers and, like you know, going to games, but like I have my heart, you know I.

Lano 56:17

I told Vanessa this if this thing was, if this team was around when we were kids man, we're gonna be bent on man.

Miggy 56:24

Yeah, yeah, we wait in solid man.

Ricky 56:27

But this team has my heart, like I follow it. Like you know, I'm on, like I'm always like following. Okay, did you?

Lano 56:34

ever? Did you ever have a galaxy Jersey? No, anything galaxy. No, don't lie, no, don't lie, dude.

Ricky 56:45

Did I have a galaxy Jersey?

Lano 56:46

No, Anything, anything galaxy no, not galaxy, I know yeah.

Ricky 56:54

I see me where a galaxy.

Lano 56:58

No, I was a. Thing.

Ricky 56:59

I would wear jerseys from like European teams, but I never had a galaxy jersey, cuz. I never felt like I've been told. I went to a one game when they're playing at the Rose Bowl they said, um, that was their home stadium. At the beginning I went to like two games at the Rose Bowl but it just I was like why are they playing the Pasadena? I just never felt like right, but the whole Beckham area like I would watch it.

Lano 57:20

But I never had a, was I never had a. That's what it was.

Miggy 57:24

The green I never had a fan dude when Beckham, if we go rifle through his clothes right now, I bet you're gonna find that Beckham galaxy jerseys there.

Ricky 57:32

No, I've never had a galaxy jersey or jacket, nothing. But now LFC, I got like three jackets, jerseys, scarves, you know.

Lano 57:41

I got.

Ricky 57:41

I got all but like. Like it. The LFC has my heart. I'm the same From from day one. You just said it, galaxy has his it's on record.

Miggy 57:55

It's recording that's it said, it see.

Ricky 57:57

L A C has my heart.

Miggy 57:59

No, but that that, my friend, is what's called a Freudian slip hey.

Ricky 58:04

Would you go to another game me? Oh, absolutely like. Would you like, like, make it like? Would you want to every game we go to what you want like Not every game cuz like, like I said, um, yeah, we can go there like I said the last time we talked.

Miggy 58:17

You know it's like the mid-week games are gonna be tough for me because in the summer we tend to work longer hours because there's more light out.

Ricky 58:25

Yeah.

Miggy 58:26

Yeah, so it'll be hard for me to make.

Lano 58:28

We're gonna Galaxy slip up if you find us some tickets to get Play out some season tickets.

Ricky 58:37

No, the season tickets I would get on the waiting list already.

Ricky 58:42

I'm already like a member, I just haven't. They haven't called you. No, no, I mean I've been. I put my deposit down and they called us, like right before COVID, but the seats that they had available, like they didn't have nothing that we liked available. There were like up high, and so we just put it on pause. And they're like you Want to transfer your deposit to some seats and I like, no, just leave it there and like keep me on the list for like every year. So every year, like before this insert, they send out, like you know how many a big open house.

Lano 59:11

How many?

Ricky 59:12

I just have a deposit just like to to be in, and then, like when you go, look for seats, it's like depending on how many you buy, so you tell them how many you want to buy yeah after if way if, once your turn comes up, yeah, how many you're gonna ask for?

Ricky 59:25

so when they go to the open house, like they take you around and like these are the seats available, and then they tell you like how many you want to buy, or whatever and how many you're gonna tell them. Why don't I gotta get a group together To figure? It's figure out at the time.

Miggy 59:39

You have no idea in your head right now how many you want to get to 415.

Ricky 59:46

Well, I would like for, but I want, I want more. I want to get a group together, more people than seats.

Miggy 59:50

We'll just say that then, hey, you're not giving for what it would people that see you see how we started this podcast.

Lano 59:56

Yeah well, what do you say? That? Oh, I'm not telling him to do the homework or whatever, to give seat, to get the tickets, and all this.

Lano 1:00:03

Yeah and right after I said that, I told him that mark is down to chip in If we get like a group, like a seat, so eight seats, ten seats or whatever. And now he doesn't know. He just said right now I want to get a group together. And I just told him at the game and before you show that me and mark we're down to let us know how much we all chip in. No, but I see how. Back in for the show.

Ricky 1:00:30

No, no, but I want, like more people than seats. So then, like we could have like a draft for seats and like, because I can't go to every game- neither us.

Lano 1:00:38

But we could like for what you want, to have like 20 seats, and then that wouldn't have like half of that goal, and then we got to worry about selling another 10.

Ricky 1:00:45

No, no, I just want like four, but like maybe we have like eight people and then, like we could, we could like Beat, for like you know, we do a draft for like we pick two seats at a time. We want all four. Then you pick those two dates, that we put the same dates and you get off.

Lano 1:00:58

But but we're doing where we're afraid to be between three people, four people you can get. Like we can chip in for like eight seats that will really have a, so you want four people for eight seats.

Lano 1:01:16

No, the tickets will sell. But, oh you, I'm sure you'll have. You'll have, like, like your in-laws that would want to go will have our side. My marks already. You know his, his daughter and her, her boyfriend, where they're like when they found out we're gonna go to the game, like oh man, we want to go. And then Vanessa's sister and her and her boyfriend, they're like, oh man, as bad as we want to go is like they all been wanting to go to a game and when they found out that we're going, they're all amped up about it.

Ricky 1:01:48

But then they didn't like try to look for tickets or nothing.

Discussion About Attending Sporting Events Together

Lano 1:01:50

No, no, because it was Saturday, dude. The game was the next day. Well, that's did I call you to look for tickets? No give me them short notice. Did I call you to fight for tickets at Unifal, one that was across the stadium?

Ricky 1:02:06

No, but that's why I like when me and me and my wife are going like the family that is going to try to get the same section, like we just all go and go have a good time, like the last time we had, like me, my wife, we had like four together.

Lano 1:02:19

You just want to. You want to, you want to split everything.

Ricky 1:02:22

They they sat like and they won't, they try to get into the 32, 52, but they couldn't get in. But like once we, once someone's going, everybody tries to go, like we just go to have a good time. But like I'm saying like that sounds good.

Lano 1:02:33

Ask her out. He says it's standing room, but it's first come, first serve. Yeah but the clubs have their section, so you really can't go in right because a they'll be like a man You're not, unless you're with the club. Yeah, or you.

Ricky 1:02:47

Maybe you know someone right and because how we're able to get in there Cuz Kobe is, yeah, you know, I don't know how he let's ever know like we're there and and that time when we had sections on that little the side where we had our seats, like those, like Three or four incidents were like where people are like, oh, we're sitting here and they're like, oh, sorry, like we got seats in the 32, 52, but we can't get in, like they're like you know, they're just like trying to sit in any available seat, and they got kicked out like yeah.

Lano 1:03:12

Like different people got kicked out because they couldn't, they weren't able to sit in that group the one thing about that 32 52, when I went with with Ralph the last game and you know we were we're in the process of closing the shop Neptune and we're working a lot because everyone else was gone and you know we're doing a lot and I was tired and we were there. We went to go see the game and we're seeing that his seats right, no, and he goes. Yeah, he goes, we're gonna go and see what say what's up to Vic right now at halftime. And Then he tells me he's like hey, he was, he was, you wanna. You want to go in there like you want to stay here. I'm like dude, I don't got the energy dude I.

Lano 1:03:54

Wow, I'm cool. I'm just going back to your seats and watching the rest of the game from over there. He's like yeah, I goes me too. He's like sometimes because I'm too just, too too tired to be in the three in there and no, it's just go back and watch the game.

Ricky 1:04:05

I was telling me like they're like off your phone, like pump your arms like you.

Lano 1:04:10

Yeah, you're not gonna go in there just like try to watch the game. I beer you just sit there, you know like no, you gotta be in it, you gotta be so you got to one game or two games with me, rick one. Yeah, the first one. You went the first one.

Ricky 1:04:29

And we were in that section. Yeah, let's try to think how many times I told me or I told Mark like I've, I've actually like sat in that section twice and then like one time In we might have, we might have gone maybe twice so we went like we're in that section.

Attending Soccer Games and Supporter Section

Lano 1:04:45

You know, what I do is twice. I think we got twice we got twice.

Ricky 1:04:48

Now we, it was me and you, or did I had like all lures family with us.

Lano 1:04:52

No, no, I mean it wasn't with Laura's family.

Ricky 1:04:55

Just us yeah cuz. I've gone with Laura's family like we went.

Lano 1:04:59

You know what we went we went with Danny and and and mark.

Ricky 1:05:06

Which mark little mark, danny, son, no, I wasn't there. Yeah, now a little the first time oh no that was a route.

Lano 1:05:18

Yeah, that was a route.

Ricky 1:05:19

I remember the time like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, me, me, okay, yeah.

Lano 1:05:24

So I think when we went, you and Laura were already inside. Wait, laura was there.

Ricky 1:05:34

Yeah, I mean Lawrence, I got.

Lano 1:05:35

I got there, g dropped me off. I walked up, you were at the gate, he got me in. Yeah, yeah. So I went with Ralph it was twice for Ralph and then we were in that 32, 52 with yeah cuz. Remember, when we're walking out we were telling we're talking to to little mark about. You know the, the Coliseum, the concerts we've been to and some of the stuff that we've been done.

Lano 1:06:00

Yeah, so so it was just me, you and the first day the first time that we went, so it's only been one game we made you and then we got into 32, 52 and then when I went that time we sat there right like it was just me and Laura, and then you like three people like we got.

Lano 1:06:14

We were there and then you said hey, let's go there, let's go see what, let's go say what's up to Kobe. And then we went, and then he, we do, we're gonna stay there that second time with Ralph and Danny and mark. You know, mark, we went again into 32, 52 and then I went this last time with with with Ralph.

Ricky 1:06:34

So you've been there like three or four times.

Lano 1:06:36

This was. This was my fourth time this past Sunday, my fourth time being there at the game, but the 30 no.

Ricky 1:06:46

We're talking about how many times you've been in the supporter shield, and you said the fourth time.

Lano 1:06:50

I I've been at. I've been at the game, I've been at the quarter. She talked about going to games.

Ricky 1:06:55

I'm not support. Shield the supporter section. The 32, 52. How many times you've been there?

Lano 1:07:00

I've gone four times to go watch to the game Uh-huh and Then the 32 52. I've been in there three times.

Ricky 1:07:07

Oh three.

Lano 1:07:08

I'm sorry, two times you and then the second time with, with, with Ralph and and Danny and little mark. The third time me and mark me. We retired and we just stayed up in the seats, and then this Sunday was the fourth time.

Ricky 1:07:23

But um, no, no, I was trying to think how many times have I been there? And I remember like I was one time with you, one time with Laura's family, but with you, like I was trying to think who else went with us? Never, like Gino didn't want to go and I was just me, you. And then I guess I had to be made up.

Lano 1:07:42

We made up with with Ralph and I think clear about was there.

Ricky 1:07:48

But like, but Ralph had his own tickets, like he wouldn't need, like, my tickets. That's what I was wondering, like how do we remember they gave us a ride?

Lano 1:07:54

I've been just three.

Ricky 1:07:56

I'm wearing like tickets to clear about give us the right home.

Lano 1:07:59

It was just two tickets, three tickets for.

Ricky 1:08:04

Hmm, but so when they wouldn't be able to go to like a Wednesday game, so it would have to be like a week in game, like a Saturday and Sunday for Mark and Vanessa give it, to give it a.

Lano 1:08:19

I have a net. Now Vanessa gets all that five in. There's no way during the week. Yeah, so it has to be the weekend and then mark mark mark will probably get out early and get the boys ready and get them down here, but Vanessa, she would have to give time to get out early.

Ricky 1:08:37

Because she's coming the furthest work half the day.

Lano 1:08:39

Work half the day. She wouldn't you like a long, because she's got to put her Her days you guys are willing to go to a playoff game.

Ricky 1:08:48

I mean because the season's like running out. I mean, this is it. I Think, like the yeah, my next season a okay, yeah, next season.

Lano 1:09:00

I have tickets would be fucking insane dude.

Ricky 1:09:03

Yeah, if I'm not keep my eyes open, cuz I always that they always ask me to keep my eyes open for Laura's just everybody know that was the producer that just yawned. They want to show. We mean Rick are the ones that worked all night.

Miggy 1:09:17
