#Frankrupt.com: The Website That’s All About the Dodger Owner Bankruptcy

Got this email from the guys at Frankrupt.com, the website that is selling apparel for Dodger fans who hate what’s happening to their team:

It’s been less than a month since the launch of FRANKRUPT, apparel for the fed-up Dodger fan. Since our inception, we’ve experienced over 14,000 hits to www.frankrupt.com, enjoyed a very successful run of online shirt sales, been tweeted by celebrities such as Drew Carey, and obtained press coverage from media outlets such as the LA Times, KFI am 640, The Dan Patrick Show, NBC, ABC 7 TV, LA Weekly, The Huffington Post, Yahoo Sports and ESPN… not to mention countless blog write ups.

#Streaker Disrupts . . . Ice Show? #SunValley

No doubt there were claims of shrinkage, due to the cold temperatures. Still, what genius decides it’s a good idea to streak across an ice arena?

An unexpected participant took to the ice during Saturday’s evening performance, wearing only flip-flops and a grin. “It made everyone’s jaws drop,” said Ice Show Director Scott Irvine. Some kids were heard asking if the streaker was part of the ice show. Other kids called the display “disgusting.” “Obviously, we do not think this is an appropriate activity at an ice show,” said Jack Sibbach, director of marketing and public relations for SunValley Co.
