Hi there! Long time lurker, first time poster!

I'm coming over from New Zealand this year to watch my first ever rams game vs the bills (cannot wait!) and just wanted to ask if there was any good accommodation around the USC campus etc. Also I will be arriving into LA at around 9am. Any tips on what time I should try get to the stadium and any good bars to go to after to celebrate a win?

ps. love all the camp reports. Have been a rams fan for a very long time and love coming on this site. Easily the best one ;)

Thanks! GO RAMS

Well it's been awhile. Best suggestion though is go straight to the stadium !!!
---Tail Gates are the way to go.Walk around & join the party.You'll find free food & alcohol. Ram fans everywhere: Then go into stadium early to watch pre game. 10:00 am early games start. People have Some of the games on.
If you go to a bar it is just
Going to waste your time.The spirit of the game is in the parking lot & stadium.

--The area in certain spots are not the best in the city.

Greetings NZ! There's a Radisson that's walking distance to the coliseum. As @SoRam suggested, you could join the tailgaters and have a few before the game.

As for the victory celebrations, I wouldn't recommend hanging around the USC/coliseum area. LA Live is a quick uber ride away where there are several spots to get a drink. There are hotels there as well. I'm sure you will find a few Rams fans there to celebrate the win with.
Enjoy and cheers! :cheers:

The area around the stadium is bad. Others will have better suggestions than I as I haven't lived in So Cal in a good long time.
Kiwi's are the friendliest people in the world....you will be fine.

Thanks so much for the suggestions! I forgot no one has been to a rams game in la for 20+ years haha so was a bit premature! I'll be sure to start posting more. Found myself some tickets! Will be good to tag along on some tailgate action :) will also be nice to talk rams football as everyone here in NZ jumps on the bandwagons (seattle, 49ers, pats:puke:)

@NZRam, I'd consider that game as well as many others except (like opening MNF @SF)... I'll be in Tamarindo, CR (most of the season).

Pura Vida, Bro!

I don't know. This one seems like he'll rip your nuts off, if you cross him.

Haha no no!

Yep we plan on buying or tickets soon. I was looking on the visitor side as well due to it being a little cheaper.
