FSN Prime Ticket, which doesn't have a whole lot of stuff to show during the summer, is dusting off classic (and not-so-classic) Southern California events from the past. Some of them are high school football games (including Westlake vs. Thousand Oaks) and some of them are some vintage Lakers games.
That even includes the Lakers-Knicks game in 1972 that gave L.A. its first NBA championship, long before cable TV was much of a factor, as well as Kobe Bryant's 81-point game against Toronto in 2006.
