The attendance was 1,900+ and with over 1,000 of those being us visiting fans they only had 2 turnstiles open until a third was opened 35 minutes before kick off.
It was estimated that more than 300 fans were still stuck outside at kick off.
It's busy, you can see the warrior in front of me, and one climbing away in the distance. Gave me ample time to get the camera out :D
Well, I haven't uploaded in a few weeks since I've been very busy lately, however, I figured I would start my first new upload of 2025 off with a bang.
Southern California doesn't see very many new Albertsons Cos. store openings (although I am holding on hope we'll see more in the next few years), and the last new Albertsons Cos. store opening was the new Sherman Oaks Pavilions back in 2021, a replacement for a previous small Pavilions. Today, I decided since this doesn't happen very often, I would make the drive to see the first new Vons in nearly a decade on its grand opening day. The land site of this new store sits on a former Kmart, which it's no longer existent building was demolished and it's foundation ripped out of the ground in order to make way for construction of a brand sparkling new Vons. This new Vons replaces a smaller older Vons in the same shopping center, which I have posted before.
According to liquor licenses, it appears this Vons now has a new store number, 3431, replacing the store number 1672 of the previous store.
This Vons was very busy for its grand opening. It is very interesting to see a Vons opened with an Albertsons layout. It looks completely different from any Vons in existence since it is the only one so far that has opened under their ownership. The open ceilings makes this Vons feel much larger and open than most stores. It also has a walk in beer cooler which is an Albertsons feature. I have never seen in a Vons before.
This store does not have a pharmacy, and I think Albertsons likely didn't add a pharmacy because the CVS in the center has pharmaceutical rights for the whole center. An expanded beer/wine/liquor department takes the space where a pharmacy and health department would normally be located in today's Albertsons new-builds, with the walk in beer cooler likely being the space where a pharmacy would be. I speculate potentially the store being designed so a pharmacy could be added in the future with a walk in beer cooler taking that space for now.
I believe in early designs of this store there were meant to be two entrances, one main entrance, and one entrance where the pharmacy would be, or in this stores case, the liquor department. However, designs changed at some point so now that entrance is a drive up order entrance.
I imagine the Vons Express being constructed with this store will open in the coming months. It is still under construction, but looks like it could wrap up very soon.
Overall beautiful store. I hope there are more to come in the future.
Off out to take a few shots for my latest college homework. A photo essay on 'A Day In The Life Of' I felt redundancy and the problems facing people (especially 40something+) looking for work at the moment was a good topic to tackle. It would appear to be especially hard for older men who have come from high paid positions and often long term careers to find something equivalent. Being a Sith Lord is fairly specialised so what would a redundant Dark Lord do? And how do you get a 6ft cardboard cutout of Darth Vader into a Fiat Panda?

This small building was a cafe. People who had just got off the various buses & trams could stop for something to drink here. It was proving quite popular on the day.
July 24th 2010: At the Action On Film International Film Festival VI, AREA 9 Productions will present “SWAN,” a charity event to benefit the Lung Cancer Foundation Of America. The event was hosted by Executive Producer Ed Bernero and the cast of the popular CBS television show, “CRIMINAL MINDS” in Pasadena.
In attendance, supporting Andy Swan and his family were Shemar Moore, Ed Bernero, and Kirsten Vangsness from Criminal Minds, Al and Zadrina Eisenmann from Area 9 Productions and more.
In February 2010, just as his career was beginning to take off, 34-year-old writer/director Andy Swan was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer, a total shock as Andy was never a smoker. Through his drive and determination, coupled with cutting-edge cancer treatments and tremendous support from his family, friends and colleagues, Andy has a bright future ahead. Andy is a partner in AREA 9 Productions. He is married to Jen Swan and is the father of 3-year-old, Nicholas.

I think they said this one was valued at 3.2 million. showing it off for a kids day at a regional airport.
Georges Island, in the middle of Halifax Harbour, was once a fort that the British occupied in the mid 1700s. Although it is the site of one of Canada’s first fully automated lighthouses, it has remained inaccessible to the public. Tales of executions, hidden tunnels and folklore surround this mysterious island.
