DOPENESS: THE GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS STADIUM





The Warriors have always been a favorite team for many NBA fans. They have consistently had a wild crowd,  cool uniforms, and exciting players. The San Francisco area is also a cool area with a rich history, amazing architecture, and mouth dropping views.  In 2015 all these things will come together as the Warriors open their new stadium. Lucky for me, I have a buddy in San Fran that I have been meaning to visit.
