    3 1/2 miles to SAP Center.
    8 miles to Levi's Stadium.
    17 miles to Stanford Stadium.
    38 miles to Oracle Arena and O.Co Coliseum.
    44 miles to Candlestick Park.
    47 miles to AT&T Park.

    The only venue I drive to is Candlestick Park. All others I use public transportation or a combination of park and ride.

    20 miles from Arco Arena, or whatever it's called this month, home of the basketball KINGS! No other teams (college or pro) in Nor Cal that are relevant to me. About 450 miles to Dodger Stadium, Rose Bowl (UCLA football), Pauley Pavilion (UCLA Hoops) and in the center of HOCKEY TOWN the Staples Center!

    I'm at a nice spot right in the middle of a bunch of places. 45 minutes from Baltimore, 2 hours from Philly, DC, and PSU, and 4 hours from Pittsburg.

    Also have a minor league team right here in York, 30 minute away in Lancaster, and 30 minutes away in Harrisburg.

    oh yeah, close to everything L.A. has to offer and it's possible to get there on time if 7 million people just left town the day before.

    +1, but add 10 minutes to cross the Valley.

    Also 4 hrs to get to a chargers game. That includes the drive from LA, parking far and then taking public transportation to the stadium. I go once every other year.

    Edit: I don't know if this is known or not, but no one uses miles to measure anything in L.A. I don't know physical distance to anywhere. We just want to know how long we will be in the car to get from point A to point B.

    If we count Gonzaga's Kennel as a major college venue, then about 5 miles for me. If not? 30 miles to the campus of Eastern Washington (red field!) or 90 miles to the campus of Washington State.
