I really wonder if the Chargers business model has evolved to 15,000 “home” fans and 50,000 to 60,000 road fans? Maybe they started thinking they’d get 20,000 up from San Diego, 40,000 new LA fans and 15,000 road fans.

But butts in seats are butts in seats. Road fans still pay $100 park and $16 for beer.

Alas I think so. It kind of reminds me of that quote from Goodfellas when they are selling on the stolen goods "It doesn't matter. It's all profit".

$1 a year to be in the greatest stadium in the world with zero risk, keeps all the parking and concession money, no problem filling the stadium with people in LA, regardless of type of fan, and has a fantastic suite. Add to that the NFL has a no flipping clause when you move a team I don't any scenario of them leaving.

Well when you put it that way. They still need to go though.

iirc, it's $1. per game but I could be misremebering..

Its pretty clear that the stadium is unmatched anywhere. All I hear about is how impressive it is. I'm sure in the future someone's gonna try to do better. But right now it is clearly the best. Heck, look at McVay's post game locker room speech on the road. Those locker rooms look nothing like Sofi's. Jerrah World might come close. But Stan World is now the best.

Sounds like Belicheck has been giving someone advice on how to build a visitor locker room.

At least it’s not painted pink like some college teams have done.

Maybe. Drop ceiling to hide listening devices in sounds like a Belicheat move.
