An Ode to Opening Day at Dodger Stadium, 1985 – present
As fans of the Dodgers wallow in the misery that is the McCourt Divorce proceedings – accompanied by a 2-4 start on the road versus the woebegone Pirates and payroll-challenged Marlins – there is respite in the looming despair: Opening Day, 2010. With an abundance of talent and numerous question marks about the state of the Organization, YKI flashes back to the years of yore, with photographic memories of my childhood and the Dodgers.
Opening Day is a time of hope and positivity toward the future and nostalgic leanings to the past, and here I present some of the images that in these times of $15 parking, $70 Loge seats & $12 beers, still make it so difficult to be objective about the Organization that produced so many good memories in my household.

Halos played at Dodger Stadium a couple of years. So I guess it’s pretty cool. Will Franky ever sell the naming rights to Dodger Stadium? In N Out Stadium? King Taco Stadium? Farmer John Stadium? Uh oh.
Awesome! Nothing like opening day at Dodgers Stadium!!!!!!!!!! Dodgers win 9-5! What a beautiful day!
Super way to start the season with memories of the past and hope for the future with a great win today and of course after the divorce $25 parking and dogs:)
Only $25 for parking! What a steal!!!!!
YOU ARE RIGHT ON. WE NEED TO START A
MOVEMENT OR ORGANIZATION TO GET FRANK
