LOOK: Los Angeles doesn’t deserve NFL football based on these lackluster Sunday crowds
Published:
Two Los Angeles NFL teams are playing Sunday but neither is in front of a full crowd of home fans.
The Rams are taking on the Redskins in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, while the Chargers battle the Dolphins in the new StubHub Center in Carson, California.
The LA Memorial Coliseum is also home to the USC Trojans, who won a thriller over Texas in overtime Saturday night. The StubHub Center is on the campus of California State University and also home to the Los Angeles Galaxy, a Major League Soccer member.
Check out how many seats were empty before the games began.
The Dodgers play Sunday night and the Angels are overlapping the NFL games, battling the Rangers Sunday afternoon. It looks like many LA sports fans were tired out from the USC game or chose to attend one of the Major League Baseball games instead of the NFL matchups.
