1/22/11 RACISM BY A TICKET LADY AT DODGER STADIUM? NO WAY, NEVER, IMPOSSIBLE ! So I almost walked away from the dodger supercross ticket window convinced they had no $20 tickets (or $27) ...the first lady I went to...african-american ..I think I sounded too "white" in the way I spoke & her manager (garcia) was right behind her & said something to her ..at first she said she had a $27 ticket..and I said "ok I'll take it" ...then after a pause she said "were out of $27 tickets, next best price is $42" ha ha...yeah right..I just got the "white price" upgrade, unasked for, ..so I said "no thanks" & started to walk away ..then I thought twice about it & went to another. wiindow and asked for one of the lowest price tickets & this time the latino lady said "sure, $27 dollars"...I handed her my card and got my ticket...you have to be ON YOUR TOES here..everything is race-related ..even asking for a simple ticket if tjey don't like the tone of your voice & color of your skin, watch out..suddenly they might be "out of tickets", or at least out of the cheap ones..after getting the ticket I went back to the first window & showed the lady...she smiled a big smile as if she could CARE LESS ..should I talk to her manager ? heck no, he may have been the one who whispered in her ear that they are suddenly "out of $27 tickets..." this is dodger stadium ticket people, not the supercross people.. these are the same people who handle dodger baseball events ..whom I supported for so long, but I still get "out of town white boy, white trash" treatment ...and will be treated that way on my 100th birthday as well, no matter how long I live in L.A. and no matter how many dodger games I come to ...its called RACISM
