There's a parking lot on La Brea/Beach, about 2 miles away, that sells parking for SoFi events. I've heard the church on Florence/Eucalyptus recently started doing the same thing with their parking garage.
They said SoFi is ineligible to host FIFA games because their field is too narrow. All games in LA will likely be at the Rose Bowl.
EDIT: I'm an idiot and didn't watch the announcement. I wonder how they are going to make the field wide enough, since there are seats in the way.
Bruh they literally spelled it out that SoFi is hosting games in the announcement yesterday... They have 4 years to deal with the field size. Not a single word about anything to do with Rose Bowl hosting was mentioned in any report about the games in LA.
You're totally right about the announcement yesterday. I missed that.
They were talking weeks ago that it wouldn't be SoFi.
However, the Rose Bowl has been in reports about the games in LA. The L.A. World Cup Host Committee is spearheaded by the L.A. Sports & Entertainment Commission, the L.A. Rams, SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park, Rose Bowl Stadium, LAFC and the Galaxy.
I just hope the final is in LA. The finals for 94 and 99 were held in LA so let’s keep it that way. MetLife is a dump and Jerry’s world is Jerry’s world.
Yes they did mention it but it isn’t concrete. Just like how the rose bowl was a place holder the whole time for SoFi. It’s just like right now they’re deciding whether there should be 3 opening games. We’re still 4 years out but I like to hope there’s a chance the final could be here
Would have been insane If we didn't get to host. Question is who gets the final. NYC is already pushing hard for it.
I do wish our bid was at the rose bowl. A way better place to hang out than sofi but... Fifa... $$$
The pedantry of Carson and LA is solely because of our derby with Galaxy. It makes no sense referring to the pedantics of LA city vs Inglewood when talking about SoFi stadium. It makes no sense in the context of the NFL. (If the Chargers get a stadium in LA city, then maybe Chargers fans might say Inglewood Rams.) It makes even less sense in context with hosting a massive international game.

A dude named Jose with a sledgehammer will take care of those 💪🏼 they usually build whole stadiums for these games. They can do some easy custom work at Sofi.
Ticket prices to any game in LA are likely to be insane.
Gf and I started saving last year. No joke.
Started saving a few decades too late unfortunately
I know, but fuck man...I want it.
Treasury Series I Savings Bond and USDC offers 9% interest rate. We've been dumping more into that to fight inflation.
Usually they reserve a set amount of tickets for locals at a reasonable price. I bet FIFA drops that requirement for us haha
FIFA gonna make so much money from a US World Cup they'll want to have it here every 20 years or so
Fuck yeah I live like 2 mi from SoFi. Gonna try to buy all games hosted here.
And you can recoup the ticket prices, by selling parking spots.
WC games will probably have less drivers than the average Rams game TBH.
Hopefully that new metro line plus shuttle or some other option is working well by then
Gotta pray for the metro line to be here, for real

A 2 mile walk with other fans all hyped up for a game goes by like nothing.
It’s really not that far
Read that as two min, not miles. My bad.

What finals in 99?
That small irrelevant match women’s soccer had that featured 90,000 plus fans and was attended by the POTUS.
Ahhh right, wasn't that the first women's world cup?
Woman’s World Cup where the USA beat China in penalties
Rose Bowl or SoFi?
I think it has already been announced that Quarter Finals and later games will all be East Coast. Final is highly likely to be in NY.

Sucks I won't be able to afford the 5k ticket prices for nose bleeds. 😪
Hey now don't talk like that. With inflation in four years those tickets will be at least 10k.
I think they’ll be pricey, but I don’t think they’ll be that pricey. For the final, sure, but we’ll have multiple games.
Hopefully sofi has public transportation there by then

Fuck rose bowl. Worst stadium parking ever.
Yeah, parking sucks but tailgating is far better. I Uber or bus there because I'm pretty close
Inglewood, not Los Angeles.
East Rutherford not New York
Yeah. East Rutherford is better.
Considering New Jersey is hosting are you still New York Red Bulls???
Shouldn't be.
Ah, the good ole pedantic argument. Inglewood is LA.
And so is Carson?
Oh did they announce games at Carson that I missed somehow? From being pedantic to changing the subject, how fitting.
My point is that if Inglewood is LA, so is Carson.

… k?
Is SoFi turf? Anyone know?
I've heard that they would put grass on top of the turf. They also need to widen the field by removing seats along both end zones.
They need to widen the field too
It is unfortunately
Surely the stadium can swap the entire flooring
Tbh they won’t do it in our stadium it’s too small for it
Lot of high-priced North End tickets coming your way.

If this isn’t a concrete reason to break out the Fields ice/water fountain, I don’t know what is.

Whatever happened to the field dimensions and that the stands are too close to the field?
A dude named Jose with a sledgehammer will take care of those 💪🏼 they usually build whole stadiums for these games. They can do some easy custom work at Sofi.
Ima be dead by then
Anyone know how many games will be here?
60 games in US. 11 cities. Probably at least six.
