Saw my 3rd LAFC match here, this time coming with my brother, my daughter's father-in-law and two…read morebrother-in-laws. LAFC was playing Portland Timbers, and the '3252' fan section was in full force throughout the match. I was the only goof who forgot their Son jersey at home in our party of five. The match ended in a 1-1 draw. As expected, there were a lot of ethnic Koreans at this game, most wearing their Son jerseys as well. Noticed for the first time that at the Alley concession stand, that umma kitchen kimbap was available for $12, and gimmie seaweed for $5. The only new thing to report is that certain concession stands now offer $5 Modelo cans, limit 2 cans per person per transaction. A scan of your driver's license is required, and tax is not included, so the total was a bit over $11 (no cash accepted in the entire stadium). Our group of five got ours during intermission (halftime). As one would expect, there were long lines which moved relatively fast, but still required us to miss the first couple of minutes of the 2nd half (yeah, we were that annoying group that messed up other people's sightlines during play, though we certainly were not the only ones). Note: Pacifico is owned Grupo Modelo, which also owns Modelo (now the most popular beer in the U.S.) and Corona (top ten). Grupo Modelo is a part of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewing company. However in the U.S., it is owned by Constellation Brands (the beers are still brewed in Mexico by InBev, but marketed and sold by Constellation in the U.S.)

This stadium is so central! Really easy to get to and traffic was not bad. Came for an LAFC game…read more Parked at USC and walked over. There was a lot of people for the Saturday game. It was a lot of fun. The stadium is like new. But the people going can be rough. Not sure if it was the issue with the opposing team, but people got frustrated with the male restroom line. I would come again if I like soccer.

The new seats and cement work is outstanding. The food is pretty decent for a stadium, again better than Sofi. I also appreciate how easy it is to get here via the LA Metro. For concerts and football - this place is the best stadium in Los Angeles (and Inglewood and Pasadena) no doubt.

Getting to the event was super easy since I took the metro system in from El Monte, so I didn't have to hassle driving in traffic or parking. The event was only $17.76 per ticket and included a pre block party with complimentary food, beverages and many giveaways by sponsors. The concert was hosted by Queen Latifah. There were marching bands, choirs, and the concert included Chaka Khan, the Smashing Pumpkins and Chris Stapleton. I was impressed with the sound system here at the Coliseum and the views of the city were spectacular from my seats. After the concert there was an incredible drone show and fireworks celebration for America's birthday. I would definitely return here again for another concert or venue in the future.

I really liked our seats. The Delta 360 has a nice bar area with M&Ms and jelly beans, and everything in there is really nice.

I was able to find parking without a problem, and it all went very well. The facilities are nice, and everyone from the staff to the security was very kind. I can't complain, I had an absolutely great time. Five stars. I A Blessings, Architect

This was my first time at this arena ... I love the layout for concerts! This was as close as I've…read moreever been to the stage. I've had a row 1 seat at other venues but found myself much further away. The stage isn't huge, but it was more than enough for the four members of MAMAMOO and their six (four women, two men) dancers. Now the bad: The concessions, save for the automats "selling drinks and packaged snacks" didn't open until 6:30pm. I found the food and drink offerings to be extremely limited: pretzels, hot dogs, smash burgers, chicken tenders, pizza. I could not find a place that offered a gin & tonic. The doors opened at 6:30pm and the concert started at 7:30pm, leaving scant time to find and consume food and drink. There was an AMEX lounge two floors up, but their list of "free" drinks was limited (no gin & tonic), and I didn't see any food offerings. Alas, I suppose this is the downside of a smaller venue. I paid $23.59 for a 20oz can of Sapporo Draft from an automat and $34.05 for very sub-par chicken tenders, soggy fries and a can of Diet Coke. The chicken tenders came sans any sauce. There was a ketchup dispenser ... Uh, that's not sauce! I never found a place selling pizza and at least two venues weren't open, Ludobab and Trois Familia. Thus, I found Crypto.com sub-par for food and drink. Venue rating: 4.5. Food & drink rating: 2.5.

Other NCAA sanction sports use the facility, but it was specifically built with football in mind.

Highly recommend visiting/touring.

After living in DTLA for years, I finally checked out Dark Nights at LA Live. I came for the 10th…read moreyear birthday anniversary. I love the vibe. It's a street fair with live performers - music, dancers, and artists to speciality shops. There were a ton of selfie stations and photo opportunities. I love that most of the restaurant a participate in $5 food and drink specials all night. My friend and I checked out each restaurant and menu and we decided to go with Rosa Mexicana. We got a prime seat in the bar to watch the Warriors-Cleveland game and make our bellies happy. We were able to order of the dark night menu and the happy hour menu if you get there early enough. If not, the small plates menu is awesome. We ordered off of everything. The $5 Palomas. Happy taste buds! If you don't care about dual happy hour and dark night menus, I recommend coming when the sunsets. That's when LA Live lights up with all the neon lights. Regardless, it's cool either way!

Select restaurants in the area offer special $5 menus so you can sample pricey food without breaking the bank. While walking around you can see muralists painting right in the front of you but don't get too close though (smell of paint is strong!). There's an abundance of photo ops around Dark Nights. It's a little hard to see where the line begins at certain places because there's people everywhere, so look around before you accidentally cut in line! Lining the main plaza are vendors selling everything from jewelry to art. It was great seeing so many artists in one place, providing a vast spectrum of art and styles to choose from. There were plenty of performance artists showing off and having a good time. It was fun seeing people jump rope with LED rope. Speaking of lights - so many lights everywhere constantly changing colors! Between that and the dance music, the sensory overload was overwhelming at times! Dark Nights is so much fun! Visit the discounted restaurants and then enjoy all the entertainment L.A. Live has to offer! I can't wait to return in the future!

We ate at The Habit which was located on campus, so that was convenient!
