Glendale: The Rams are playing their playoff game in Arizona due to wildfires in Los Angeles. They’re working hard to make State Farm Stadium feel like their home turf at SoFi Stadium.
Rams President Kevin Demoff has been sharing updates on social media about their efforts to keep that home-field advantage, with help from the NFL and the Cardinals.
To kick things off, Rams season ticket holders got first dibs on tickets, and a whopping 35,000 of them jumped at the chance. The team even arranged buses to shuttle fans from SoFi Stadium to their temporary home.
Demoff mentioned that the field will feature Rams logos and markings, just like at their home games. Their staff is collaborating with the Cardinals to use the same graphics on the video board.
“Our team is on the ground in AZ, working to install as many graphics as possible to create that home game vibe. We’re doing our best to make it feel like Rams House,” he said.
As fans enter the stadium, they’ll receive NFC West champion rally towels. Demoff also expressed gratitude to the Cardinals and Vikings for their support during this unusual week.
“Big thanks to the Cardinals and their leadership for stepping up to help us out. We couldn’t have done this without their support,” he added. “Also, a shoutout to the Vikings for their generous donations to fire relief efforts and for being so understanding during this hectic time.”
While nothing about this week feels normal, the Rams and the league are doing everything they can to make Monday night feel like a classic Rams home game.
