56,000 place deposits for LA Rams season tickets
Posted February 09, 2016 6:00 am
LOS ANGELES (AP) - More than 56,000 people have placed deposits on season tickets for the return of the Los Angeles Rams.
Rams Chief Operating Officer Kevin Demoff calls the response inspiring.
The team began accepting the $100 deposits last month and the deadline ended Monday. Prices for the nine-game tickets haven't been set.
The Rams, who left LA in 1981, are moving back this year from St. Louis.
They'll play in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum for three seasons until a new stadium is built in neighboring Inglewood.
In addition to getting priority for the chance to buy 2016 tickets, depositors are guaranteed a spot on the waiting list for the Inglewood stadium, which is scheduled to open in 2019.
