Cirque du Soleil performers heading to Comic-Con

Every summer, San Diego is beset by a plague of cape-wearing, Dr. Who-loving, George Lucas-embittered nerds. Cirque du Soleil decided it needed to get in on some of that sweet, sweet geek action. Kà will set up shop across from Comic-Con at Petco Park during opening night, and perform a piece that will include 3-D projections on the stadium façade. The poor, poor women of Kà. They have no idea what they’re in for.

Wayne Gretzky was at Tao on July 9 to celebrate son Ty’s 21st birthday. The younger Gretzky, along with his sister Paulina hung out in the club until 3 a.m. In a perfect world, Gretzky would’ve sent Marty McSorley to be Ty’s personal bouncer at their table. If you didn’t get that, ask a Canadian to explain it.
