The dirty secret of football fandom here is that it's not all that different from the other NFL cities. People want to watch their team win games. Some people, the truly obsessed types who hollow out watermelons and walk around with them on their heads, might follow their team into the fiery pit of 7-9 hell. The rest of us just want to get drunk, throw up on the sidewalk, get in fights and maybe pass out from heatstroke due to a lack of shade in the stadium. OK, maybe that last one isn't all that common.
Every sport has that second type of fan, but what a team needs to survive is the first type of fan—the functionally insane people who buy car flags and tattoo the name of their favorite player on their butt cheek. L.A., and the Rams in particular, have that dedicated segment of fandom.
