Growing up a huge Lakers fan, I had always dreamed of being in the presence of their home stadium. That day finally came, and it is still to this day, one of my more memorable moments. I was never able to attend a game, but I did get to see the Staples Center building right in front of me. I remember staring and admiring the building that I had always seen on TV and just started thinking about the history of it all. I thought about how many times a championship was won there and wondered what the atmosphere was like. I also payed attention to the structure of the building because it was huge and is considered a big landmark in Los Angeles. It was a great experience and I plan to visit again sometime in the future, but actually go inside this time around.
