I am not totally sure why (maybe I need professional help).I know it is all suply and demand but it was always presented to me the PSL/SSL was for stadium construction. Last I checked, it is the same stadium the Chargers are playing in. So why do I have to shell out 2,900% more ($100 vs. $3,000) for the exact same stadium and number of tickets a year? So they should be able to sell their tickets for dirt cheap but the PSL should be the same. Why should i care? The only real monetary thing we get out of our fandom is the PSL if we buy them. Well, it is kind of like a stock. Buy low, sell high. The Chargers ones start at the absolute bottom! How could they go down at $100? Even if they do, who cares? You could even just walk away without much of a worry. But the instant the stadium opens, it is aging and the next great stadium will be in the works for sure. I do not see how my $3,000 PSL will go up much regardless on how the team is doing (Hope I am wrong). In other words, there is WAY more upside to the Chargers PSLs than the Rams PSLs. I used to really like the Chargers in San Diego. Then I was annoyed and irritated at them when the moved to LA. Now I hope they lose every game they play.Or maybe I am just grumpy this morning! Tell me I am looking at this all wrong.

I am not totally sure why (maybe I need professional help).I know it is all suply and demand but it was always presented to me the PSL/SSL was for stadium construction. Last I checked, it is the same stadium the Chargers are playing in. So why do I have to shell out 2,900% more ($100 vs. $3,000) for the exact same stadium and number of tickets a year? So they should be able to sell their tickets for dirt cheap but the PSL should be the same. Why should i care? The only real monetary thing we get out of our fandom is the PSL if we buy them. Well, it is kind of like a stock. Buy low, sell high. The Chargers ones start at the absolute bottom! How could they go down at $100? Even if they do, who cares? You could even just walk away without much of a worry. But the instant the stadium opens, it is aging and the next great stadium will be in the works for sure. I do not see how my $3,000 PSL will go up much regardless on how the team is doing (Hope I am wrong). In other words, there is WAY more upside to the Chargers PSLs than the Rams PSLs. I used to really like the Chargers in San Diego. Then I was annoyed and irritated at them when the moved to LA. Now I hope they lose every game they play.Or maybe I am just grumpy this morning! Tell me I am looking at this all wrong.

Tell me I am looking at this all wrong.I would look at it this way. The Chargers are helping to pay for our stadium. If they charged the same for SSL's as the Rams, they wouldn't sell and they'd actually contribute less to the stadium cost.Also, and this part's ridiculous, you do get your money back in 50 short years...

Feels like we are shouldering the load. And by "we" I mean people whom bought PSLs. How the owners and NFL works these things out is really not my concern. But because this is my money, I would think that is why it bothers me. The stadium experience part of this will be exactly the same for both sets of fans. Its not like the stadium is going to have lots of Rams branding or better sound, better food, or better anything. Again, I would say ticket prices dictate the demand of the team. But the PSL was sold to me anyway, to be for the stadium. I think it would have been a HUGE difference is Rams PSL owners had rights to 3rd party events. That would make perfect sense to me. Then I would understand why I would pay so much more. Large added benefit.
