Now, having said this, I haven't experienced that same type of jack assery at other ball parks that I see occurring at Dodger Stadium in the past few years. As a Dodger fan, I'm usually pretty embarrassed for an entire 9 innings, seeing that the 'type' of fan I'm referring to, are as ignorant in life, as they are in knowing the game of baseball.
At Angel Stadium, the fans may not know much about baseball, but at least they sit there and watch the game, sipping their Merlot, giving others the opportunity to watch the game without hearing expletives every 5 seconds. Hell, even at a game I attended in CITI Field in New York 2 years ago, the chants of "Dodgers suck" usually followed some astute analysis on WHY we suck.
I think knowing what an E.R.A. represents should be a requirement to get into the ball park.
That'll solve the "Left Field Pavillion" problem that we currently have at the stadium. The presence of LAPD won't, unless you are looking at making Chavez Ravine a demilitarized zone.
