@@skipmagil They should have just renamed themselves the SoCal Chargers, or something along those lines, so they could have better kept their SD fans. SoFi stadium isn't even technically in LA (it's in Inglewood), and the 2 hour drive from SD really isn't so bad if you're only making it for the 8 home games per year.

Dodger fan here. I think if they get a new stadium it should be relocated somewhere closer to DTLA for better access to public transportation. Currently, the drive to Chavez Ravine is horrendous. Not to mention the dark history of how that stadium was originally built. 😬

Thinking about it now, I never understood why the 49ers didn't build their new stadium on the site of the old Candlestick. I know the old site did have issues with weather, but in all, it was a huge piece of property.

Despite false claims that Levis stadium was "privately funded" Santw Clara paid 300 million, and fronted the 49ers share of 1 billion dollars, which will be paid back over 50 years. Due to inflation, this loan is still a subsidy.

@@southtext3400 The 300 million was not for the building it was for the land that the the building sits on and the 49ers pay rent on that land every year depending on revenue they receive, so the building was '"privately funded' not like Raiders who got a hand out of free tax payer money.
@scotttild8 ай бұрын
Two main reasons. 1 The city and the 49ers never got along once Eddy D left. 2 The city wanted all kinds of absurd conditions for any agreement and 3 the 49ers and the York's didn't want to at that location they wanted to be down closer to the HQ. Eddy was all set to rebuild there until his gambling stuff came out and he had to sell to his sister who was an idiot. It would not have been a bad site for football if the stadium was built right. Baseball it is dreadful.

@ec16288 ай бұрын
The Yale Bowl was the inspiration for the Rose Bowl. Cal’s Stadium is built on an earthquake fault. There’s a gap in the stands where the ground is creeping. Also, why do you keep harping on roofs in CA? We don’t need them here. Plus the Dodger midweek day games are brutal not because of the weather, but because of traffic. You get to fight traffic in the parking lot. You can’t get out of the lot since the freeways are gridlocked. Once you leave the lot, you get to deal with Downtown LA traffic. Terrible experience.

Regarding Sofi, Sunday night games are the best here (5pm start), although Monday night or Thursday night games not bad either for the same reasons. Day games are OK but the roof doesn't really block the glare of the sun. Imagine having the lightest available tint on your driver's side car window and it's the same result. Also it's not 72 degrees inside, on a 90 degree day which is pretty common it will be about 80-85 degrees inside on the upper levels. If it's a true night game and 55 degrees and windy outside, it will be about 60 degrees and breezy inside the stadium (at least the upper levels). It's a good stadium to walk around the middle levels however and VIP areas and suites are super nice. I kinda like Levi's even though it's pretty basic by 2020's standards... and took forever to leave (by train/bus) when I went there in 2015. I also go to Angel Stadium a lot and it's not that bad at all, just needs a few new tweaks and will be good for another 15-20 years to buy time to fund a new stadium or figure out what to do next.
