Dodgers Gear Banned in L.A. Bar
More corroborating evidence: "To be honest, most of the guys [involved in the altercation] were gangsters. They were all wearing Dodgers stuff, and they come in here and cause trouble a lot. We don't discriminate due to race or color, so we decided that banning the Dodgers gear was the best way to handle it. We have a regular clientele that likes to come in here, and we want them to feel safe. A lot of girls come here to hang out."


1. im obviously not surprised.
2. of course this isn't national news, because that'd be considered racist BUT if this happened in Philly, oh it'd be international news that tops the french soccer fans story right now.
unreal.
Phils in 5.

Stick to "The Shack" in Santa Monica - a small slice of home on Santa Monica Blvd. (Although they only show Ohio State games on Saturdays - Boo.)

They have been doing that kinda stuff for years in Europe in order to avoid fights between soccer hooligans

Man, fuck The Shack. That place pisses me off, reserving tables and every fucking seat during Eagles games. A much better Philly bar is the Sports Harbor on Washington Blvd., right off Lincoln. Everyone there is very jovial and happy to see every Philly fan, unlike the bourgeoisie assholes at The Shack, who are totally unwelcoming to Philly fans that aren't "regulars."

Doh, my first comment added nothing. So I'll just name my favorite bar. Ivy Inn on the Boulevard in Havertown. Enrico knows it :P

Best Philly bar outside the Philly region:
The Parrot in Ft. Lauderdale
