"I Love L.A." is played following major sporting events in Los Angeles if the home team has scored or won, notably when the Los Angeles Dodgers, Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Galaxy win, and when the Los Angeles Kings score a goal. The Dodgers adapted the title to "We Love L.A." as a marketing slogan for the 2015 season, prompting "Los Angeles Times" writer Steve Dilbeck to quip, "It's not 'I Love L.A.' like in the song, but "we" love L.A. Guess they wanted to save paying royalties to Randy Newman."
