Exposition Park is one of the most pleasant areas in all of Los Angeles. Put a good game in the Coliseum and Sports Arena and the people will show and enjoy themselves. What should not happen is for the City, County and State of California to contribute taxpayers' money for renovations such as luxury boxes, which will benefit only a few. Let's forget about the proposed wholesale mangling of the great Coliseum. Put good games in there and the people will come.
