San Francisco came in at No. 7, Sacramento cracked the top 10 at No. 10 and San Diego followed close…

The countdown is seemingly on for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding — and fans believe the big day will indeed take place at Madison Square Garden. Swift and Kelce, both 36, have been together since 2023, getting engaged two years later. The couple, however, never publicly divulged any details of their wedding plans. “I think the wedding is what happens after [my Life of a Showgirl promotional tour] in the scheme of the planning, but I’m so excited about it,” Swift succinctly said on the Graham Norton Show in October 2025. “I know it’s gonna be fun to plan…

Sami Zayn and Cody Rhodes may have to be viewed differently following the events at Night of Champions — at least for right now. By having Zayn not actually turn heel, he was able to live up to being the “last real good guy,” thus changing how we should perceive his character if that remains the case. Sure, there was some jealousy toward the “Golden Boy” Rhodes, but now it feels like it stems from the few shortcuts the “American Nightmare” took — something Zayn often found hard to do — and the help he received from friends and maybe…

West Hollywood’s city council voted this week to take Home Depot off its approved list of companies to do business with — driven by anger over the Trump administration’s deportation agenda. The liberal Los Angeles enclave is setting up a potential clash with the popular chain over allegations it has assisted Immigration and Customs Enforcement in targeting illegal migrants. “The one vendor I would like to remove is Home Depot because of their cooperation with ICE immigration enforcement,” Councilmember Chelsea Byers said at a meeting Monday, according to the WeHo Times. Home Depot’s removal from the city’s approved list of…

If the Big Apple has one food trend that needs to die, it’s food halls – those indoor clusters of same-old “favorites” that might or might not be available at any particular time you go. Just-opened Shaver Hall on the ground floor of the former Lord & Taylor building on Fifth Avenue, now owned by Amazon, hopes to buck the recent trend of flops. I wish them well but the model is as stale as cheese left to mold in the sun.  The Dallas-based The Food Hall Co. is behind Shaver Hall. Jeff Bezos should fire whoever decided to install a…

World Cup fever has officially reached baseball season. During Tuesday’s Athletics-Dodgers game in West Sacramento, one fan behind home plate made it clear he was watching more than one game. As Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski began his delivery in the bottom of the third inning, a fan wearing a green Mexico national team jersey suddenly erupted from his seat. The reason had nothing to do with the Dodgers or Athletics. Mexico had just scored against Ecuador in its World Cup Round of 32 match in Mexico City. The broadcast picked up the moment as the fan repeatedly shouted “goal!” from…
