An LA Times reporter estimated that around 60% of the fans at SoFi were rooting for the 49ers. But the stadium did, indeed, reveal itself to be the 'Ram's house' by the final whistle
— were the loud, unruly guests in red and gold. If the $5-billion building was indeed the Rams’ house — as the franchise’s tagline suggests ad nauseam — then the 49ers aficionados crashed the ADU out back and threw themselves a carne asada.“Niners house!” a 49ers fan on the 300-level yelled 90 minutes before kickoff.“Home game,” a man in a 49ers jersey quickly rebutted.
The clash between NFC West rivals was reminiscent of their meeting in Week 18 when a sea of red infiltrated Inglewood to watch the 49ers come back from a 17-point deficit to beat the Rams in overtime. The win — the 49ers’ sixth straight over the Rams — clinched a playoff berth. While Bigelow grew up a Rams fan, his 36-year-old son, Brian, didn’t catch Rams fever when the franchise was stationed in St. Louis. He reached his formative team-picking years when the 49ers were annual Super Bowl contenders so he became a 49ers fan. But his 11-year-old son Tyler, who wore a Stafford jersey Sunday, roots for the Rams.
It was a shorter trip for Bryan Polio, Jose Chity, and Frankie Argueta, three 29-year-old Rams fans from South Central. They try attending two Rams games a season. They declined to share how much they paid to see their Rams play for a Super Bowl berth.The three friends met in ninth grade. They hadn’t yet had their second birthdays when the Rams bolted for St.
But the two sides realized they had one rooting interest in common Sunday as they watched the AFC championship game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs on the videoboard.
