Do's:

• Take the metro, also called the "Gold Line" by my house in Pasadena, Calif. This is honestly one of my favorite things about going to a Dodger game. The station is only a few minutes from my place, and it saves a ton of time and money with no cash being spent on gas or parking. It also gives fans the option of drinking a beer or two at the game by not having to worry about driving home after. The metro lets you off near the stadium and then a bus picks you up and drops you off right at the stadium steps. Taking the bus gives you the feeling of attending a true major sporting event, with everyone else in Dodgers gear talking about the days's game and the team.
  
• Get a Dodger Dog. People that have never been to a Dodger game might wonder what's so special about a Dodger Dog Isn't it just a normal hot dog? Right away I have to inform them they are oh so wrong. This delicious delicacy is unique to Dodger Stadium, and I can't imagine ever going to a game and not having one. Having a Dodger Dog and eating it with all the other fans puts you in the baseball mood. Add some peanuts and a soda or, if you are of age, a beer, and you are good to go.
  
• Heckle, but not too much. We get it. You love the Dodgers, and you are into the game, and you hate the other team for no other reason except that they are the opposing team. Participating in heckling the other team and players can be a mutually fun thing to do. But when you are screaming and yelling at a non-stop pace, it can really annoy people around you trying to enjoy the game, and no one likes that person. Do not be that guy. Dodger Stadium has prided itself on being a family fun environment in the last couple of years, and it puts everyone in a bad and uncomfortable mood when the guy in the back row is screaming obscenities in front of small children.

Don'ts:

• Do not sit in a seat that is not assigned to you. Everyone wants to get closer to the action. I am not going to lie, I used to do it all the time. It is the fifth inning and you and your group of four friends see a group of seats that has been unoccupied all game. You then go and test your luck. Then the people who were sitting in traffic all day finally get to the game ready to sit in their seats they bought, and you are occupying them. It creates an awkward and cumbersome scene in which you have to get up and make everyone else move while you move back to your assigned seat. It's not worth it.
  
• Do not miss out on singing God Bless America and "Take Me Out to The Ball Game" at the top of your lungs. Even if you are not a great singer or even if you don't know the words, sing along anyway. It feels awesome singing with 50,000 people honoring your country and cheering on your team. This is also one of my favorite things about going to a Dodger Game.
  
• Do not leave until the entire game is over. The worst thing you can possibly do is leave before the game is over only to hear about an epic comeback in the car or on TV when you get home. You made the decision to go to the game, so you might as well as stick it out until the end. One of my biggest pet peeves is when people want to leave early when you know a great game is happening. If it is a Friday night, you can catch an awesome firework show when the game is over. I agree that a three-hour baseball game can be long and tedious, but it ultimately worth it to stay the whole game. It is the mark of a true Dodger and baseball fan.

This is some advice on how to have the best time at an Dodger game. So eat up, sing along, and stay until the end. You will be rewarded in the end with a solid time at the ballpark.
