The first In-N-Out Burger in Arizona is in Lake Havasu City.
If you ever come out to California these are some of the best burgers around.
The chain is found mostly in California. There are 5 stores in Las Vegas
and this is the first of 4 in Arizona. In the background of this photo
is London Bridge in Havasu City. |

On June 17 was in Los Angeles working for ESPN on the Oscar Dela
Hoya fight. He lost his title but the only picture that came out was
this shot of my truck at night. During the first round of the fight
the TV police came around to make sure we did not have the fight in our news
truck. |
|
Later that same weekend was the NBA Finals in Los Angeles too.
I was right across the street form the riots and the police car that was
burned. My crew, the truck, and I came out healthy and just fine but
is was scary for a few minutes. |
