Let me tell you from experience: Any food service establishment can have vermin problems, if not vigilant. It's just the nature of the business. Rats and roaches do need to eat to survive and where else would they look for food? Believe it or not, the location of the facility as well as the facility itself can contribute to the infestation. Years ago I worked in a building that was supposedly 80-plus years old with a shroud of mature trees all around - sort of an ideal
surrounding for vermins. Every Friday evening, before closing, we would set up traps and glues all around the kitchen area. Voila ! Monday morning the beasts were still alive on the glue pads and gave us cheery good morning greetings.
(Please note Dodgers management.... you could be next. Your exterior looks good but the interior is almost 50 years old). I'm a Dodgers fan.

OK let me tell you that even 4 star restaurants have cockroaches (I know I worked in 1! New York Times rated). There isn't a place where there is food that doesn't have some kind of rodent or bug around it is just nature. Where there is food there are the scavengers! I personally thin Shea Stadium is the nastiest park in the majors but that is my opinion and it didn't stop me from seeing games there.

All stadiums probably have this problem. The stadium appears cleaner than some others I've been to including Dodger stadium. I bet there are a lot of rats and vermits at Dodger stadium considering its located near a park and other open space.

As much as I love the Angels' team and Mike Soscia... and as beautiful as that Park is, THEY GOTTA CLEAN OUT THE RATS!!
I can't believe they wait 'til the next day to do the dishes. I'm a guy and I don't do that in my own apartment. What are they thinking?

ew, 118 violations? that's just disgusting.
This was hilarious though:
"Tim Mead, vice president of communications for the Angels, blamed the infestation on heavy rains in 2005 that contributed to an increase in the rodent population."
haha right.

I agree with DanEGood. The Angels are my favorite team and the park itself is amazing, but the rats are gross. They need to work on that.

LOL, my husband and I got a good laugh out of that one. true the dodgers had more than one violation but at least they don't blame it on the rain from two years ago.

Ive never been there but its gross. But what do you expect when you go to fastfood places? They always re-use the old meat and stuff. Maybe not as bad as rats but they are similar.
