I agree that this would make sense from a business perspective on their part as a ploy to keep ticket holders from dropping seats especially when the team is struggling.

I think the Rams are going to have a serious "eye opening" experience when it comes to season ticket renewals, for instance:

Out of our large group of 17 different individual season ticket holders, who owned a total of 102 seats last year (averaged 6 seats per owner), we had a group meeting and we are giving up/reducing to just 36 seats.

Group reasons in no particular order:

1. Poor team performance
2. Poor perceived team performance in 2017 and beyond
3. Expense of tickets and parking
4. Lack of interest to attend all 9 games
5. Inability to sell tickets for even $25-$50 dollars to friends/family/anyone last 5 games of last season
6. Perceived very high cost/unable to afford PSL licenses and seats for 2019 and beyond
7. Lack of interest to be an individual season ticket holder
8. Difficulty to get everyone together at same tailgate or seating section for such a large group
9. Loss of money from inability to sell all tickets at even face value for games unable to attend due to work, travel,
vacations, emergencies, etc

Solution:

1. Eliminate or reduce numerous seats per individual season ticket holder
2. Maintain a reasonable amount (36 seats) of seats within the group so as to only attend a few games each year
3. Maintain those seats to keep a place holder in line awaiting PSL prices and individual game ticket prices
4. Purchase a smaller group of tickets at new stadium (25-30 seats) definitely closer or all together
5. Realize and understand that everyone can't attend possible highly sought after home games
6. 36 seats kept are those in best seating areas.....poor, nosebleed, bad neighbor fans, etc tickets eliminated
7. This plan will allow everyone during 2019 season to experience one or two games at new stadium for a reasonable cost and "see how things shake out"

For info what we did with our group.

I was just sent an email alerting me that the new invoice for 4 seats was ready. Took them about 24 hours to get a new invoice to me. I have a question into them about the ticket total in the new stadium being restricted to the amount bought this year. I will update when I have an answer.

I think you are spot on. First time I received a recorded message about heavy call volume when I called. Plus the fact that I could hear multiple representatives talking to ST holders in the background once my call was answered. Only two reasons to call in that I can see
1) Dropping seats
2) Multiple credit cards.

In November, an additional list was taking deposits. It was the "Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park priority list." I attempted to place a deposit on this list but, it was rejected because of my current season ticket status. I then explained to the Rams I need to be on a list (even if further behind) because I might be on the East Coast for most/all of the 2017 season and, could not continue with 8 tickets.

I was told I do not need to purchase 8 tickets for 2017. I will maintain my place in the original line based on my $100 deposit time if I buy 1 ticket.

There would be no restriction on my allotment for Inglewood because I did not renew 8 seats.

I am really struggling with deciding to renew or not for 2017 and 2018 without knowing what the PSL costs will be. I also dont like the limited options to move or change the number of seats. The Dodgers have a great system for Season Ticket holders to change seats, not sure why the Rams cant do something similar. Perhaps its because the Rams are just treading water until the new Stadium is open.

Im leaning to not, as I dont want to spend 5K over the next two years just to hold my place in line for 2019 and wont be able to afford it. Very frustrating.

Im still very happy the Rams are back and I always wanted to get in on the ground floor of tickets for a team in LA, but I dont know. This doesnt feel good.

The Rams are telling us they don't expect us to be able to move because demand is so high.

Bu if there are open seats, we will be given the option to move. We should know soon...
