The Driving Thread

Pico and Bundy is getting very close to home for me. Teddy's used to be Nu-Way and had the best chili dogs around. It was open late.

 

Pico between Barrington and Centinela is interesting.

That section of West L.A. is the reason I went back for the third day in a row.

 

Saw this parked by my place.



It's the 40-year anniversary of the Kings eliminating the up and coming powerhouse Oilers in the Smythe semis, 3 games to 2.

I've posted the Miracle on Manchester here many times but that wasn't the only historic Kings win.

I was 10 and just becoming so hot and nuts for the Kings even though they usually sucked.

The Kings were 24-41-15 that season and scored 314 goals while giving up 369.

The Oilers were 48-17-15 that season and scored 417 goals (1st) while giving up 295.

Should've been an easy 3-0 sweep.

Instead the Kings won the opener 10-8 up at the Northlands Coliseum and it set the stage for everything else.

And Bob Miller is the best play by play hockey guy in the history of the league.

 

Teddy's gets ★★★★ on both Yelp and Foursquare. Has a covered patio too. Looks like a good vibe.

Bumping with a meta pic…

 

Yeah, this guy looks like just about every A-hole I imagine is behind the wheel of those big-ass pickups that have never had more than a potted plant or dog food in the back bed.

That’s funny. Even more so is that I saw a
TGR VOL plate in my town a year ago or so.
