Why is it that at Ram games there are so....so many fans rooting for the visiting team? What's up with that???? Why are they in L.A.? Why aren't those fans in Green Bay.....or....Chicago....or....Philadelphia...... Or ...Detroit ..... or New Orleans.... Or San Francisco...rooting for the home team at the home stadium??? Hummmm????? Well,.....Ram fans know what the unspoken dirty little secret is......AND.....why aren't Ram fans flocking to stadiums all over the U.S.A. to cheer on the Rams?........why is that?.......Ram fans know why......I think everyone else knows why too.......they just don't want to talk about it........the truth hurts........comments......anyone?????

Out of town fans love to come to LA as it's a mini vacation and for the weather. LA fans don't want to leave California to go to Buffalo, Detroit or Cleveland etc

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Mark,.....as an ex-Michigan kid you're sort of onto it but your just scratching the surface! You're from Michigan...... Just like my grandma....it's A no brainer for you!...... Granny was born in Detroit..... AAAGEEAHAA!!!. Anybody else want to chip in????......It's deep.....really deep!😁
P.S. Right now, this minute, The Lovely Mrs. Hydrant is down in Del Mar, California visiting with a long, long time family friend and business associate. The lady is from Kalamazoo, Mi. Her husband is from Rochester, N.Y. They currently reside in Brooklyn, N.Y. But not for long.......the whole family.....Grandma, Grandpa, the kids, and grandkids are moving to SAN DIEGO! ASAP! Good for them!.......Bottom line.....I choke with laughter every time I hear about someone in the Midwest, East , or South, complaining about how newly arriving Californians are wrecking their wonderful small town and it's great atmosphere!!!! Hey,.....BE A NATIVE CALIFORNIAN.... talk about an invasion!!!! And WRECKING THINGS!!! It's A joke! Please,....stop!! Everyone please go home! Back where you came from. PLEASE! PRETTY PLEASE 😂😂
I love Granny already. Born in Detroit myself.
These pic comes from my last winter in Michigan. Do I miss winter? A little. Very little. Apparently So California has thinned my blood out

Why assume they are flying in?
Do Yankees fans fly into distant stadiums or are they just everywhere.
Maybe there are fly ins and maybe Rams need a bigger following.
What kind of following do the chargers have?
The Chargers have 3 fans. None in LA ( yet). Every team that plays the Chargers in LA is like having an extra home game
As for flying in you should see the masses at LAX with their Packers, Bears, Vikings etc gear on. It's overwhelming. We get a BIG tourism spike on all home games which is every week with either the Rams or Chargers playing

The NFL has had three franchise relocations very recently..... One team moved from St.Louis to Los Angeles. The Rams. Last time I checked, St. Louis is really not a mecca for visitors from out of town. Another team moved from Oakland, Ca. to Las Vegas. The Raiders......why would they do that?......Probably for the same reason that the A's baseball team won't be in Oakland for too much longer and the same reason that the Rams got out of St. Louis ASAP! Ya think?....and the Chargers moved from San Diego to L.A. Why would they do that?? Hummm.......Maybe somebody knows something?.....Bottom Line.......it's all about tourists baby!!! The Rams, Chargers, and Raiders WANT.......I repeat WANT!.....visiting fans at their games!!! It has NOTHING, I repeat, NOTHING! to do with fan apathy on the part of Ram, Raider, or Charger fans. They like their teams just like you do......maybe more!....FANS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY WANT TO COME TO LOS ANGELES!!! and VEGAS!!!......THEY LIKE IT!......Nobody travels from California to watch the Patriots or Bills. Why would they?.
That's just the way it is .........I get it......so does Mark......it's A NO BRAINER!!!!
I can't remember the last time I was dealing with snow - oh wait, that was Chicago in 2000, DC in 1996, Boston in 1993, and Edmonton in 1991. Do I miss the little white fluffy stuff? No not even a tinch.
Best, SH
Best looking women fans at a Rams game......PACKER GIRLS....
By the thousands!!.... .they hit town with the kids and the family like a tornado!!!! Just the way we like it!......Packer fans are the best! Friendly folks! .Keep it coming , Wisconsin!!!!...... You guys got it made.......know it or not!!!!! 🙋 👩👩👦👦 👨👧👧👩👦👩👦👦👩👧👦!!!!!
P.S. And that green and gold?.......Same colors as my Alma Mater team. What could be better!...Cal Poly Broncos!!!! R.I.P.......Our last head coach was Roman Gabriel, I think?......... He was Josh Allen before Josh Allen was born!.....Go Bills......next year......
One at a time.....
1. Yankee fans don't fly in for the games. At least that's my impression. What they do is rent a Uhaul truck and move the whole family from New York and then they go to local ball games and cheer on the Yankees......and yes, they are everywhere.... everywhere.
The Rams definitely could use a bigger following. That's always been an issue but things are beginning to change. Problem is, the vast majority of people who live in the Rams area are transplants from somewhere else. For them the home team is the Chicago Bears, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Singapore Thunder Talkers, Mexico City Diablos Rojos (Red Devils) , etc. Old habits are hard to break.
As far as the Charger following...... none in the L.A. area as far as I can figure. Like maybe....zero. You have to go to San Diego to find them. Because that's where they all are.
