The weather turned nice in St. Louis, which can only mean one thing - more shirtless, tattooed, rednecks at Busch Stadium. We're going to resist the urge to post more picture of our dear neighbors, and focus on something a little more nationally relevant.
Game 6 of the NBA Finals between the Lakers and Celtics takes place tonight. As the series travels nearly 3,000 miles across the country to Boston, we're left with a collection of fan pictures from Games 3-5 at the Staple Center.
The guys over at
WithLeather.com have done a fabulous job documenting the copious amount of celebrities and attention whores that attended Lakers games over the past week.
Coupled with the insane amount of fan interviews during breaks in action, anyone outside of the general Los Angeles area must think the 19,000 in attendance has their own IMDB page, record label, or house in the Hollywood hills.
But our senior fan hunters at JSF Headquarters know better. Let's take a look at the real L.A.
Official Analysis: Between the whole cop car, Kobe rape thing, and the fact that this automobile has seemingly been involved in an accident, impounded, or both...there are so many jokes here, we can't decide on one.

Official Analysis: Yet another reason why we recommend not inserting permanent ink below your outer epidermis that reference static structures or locations. Structures go away, location don't, and people often relocate. The once die-hard Cardinals fan (sorry, World) now looks like an absolute mongoloid in L.A.

Official Analysis: Don't let any of your so-called "successful" friends that have moved out to the West Coast tell you that every chick that lives in L.A. is a "9 or above".

Official Analysis: You don't have to drive a Ferrari or Bentley in Hollywood for people to know you're a true Lakers fan. And believe us, nothing says "Lakers fan" like spelling "Lakers" with a "Z"...or double "A"....or draping your back hatch with New York bumper stickers.

Official Analysis: Phil Jackson is currently denying all reports that this is, in fact, his father.

Official Analysis: Can we go ahead and lock this guy up before he steals Justin Timberlake's jewelry? Despite being completely ridiculous, that is absolutely the ugliest shirt we've seen in quite some time.

Official Analysis: As if you needed further proof, we conclude that not *all* Lakers fans are celebrities.

Meanwhile, in Boston....

We actually would've gained a tremendous amount of respect for Mr. Belichick should he have donned the hoody while sitting court-side.
(cheers to fan hunters PhotoDogger and Itinerant for some good L.A. submissions)
