Things to do:

- Visit the above places. Take fotos. Cruise around... (kinda obvious, really)

- Go through the car wash in your car. Or in the back of a truck... if they let you. ;-)

- Play some baseball at the baseball park. (Apparently the field is closed to the public though.)

- Pick up a sixer of "this stuff" (or at least try to, if you're under age) at the "Centennial" liquor store.

- Get a Jalapeño (Chili) Burger and soggy fries (which aren't really soggy, I'm told) at the "Top Notch".

- Climb one of the "Moon(light) Towers". (probably illegal; the one in the movie was fake)

- Smoke a joint on the 50 fucking yard line. May also be slightly illegal... Make do with a cigarette, if you want. (Which is probably still illegal, since the stadium is likely to be off limits... but that didn't stop anyone in the movie... ;-) )
