Season Ticket Holder update - 7/21/20

[LARams_1963]

Just received this info from the Rams....... We are choosing to opt In.

​

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Soon SoFi Stadium will be complete and we will be closer to witnessing Aaron Donald’s first sack and Jared Goff’s first touchdown pass in our new home. The latest photos show you 70,000 seats surrounding the field, our locker room, and the beautiful parkland and lake that set the world’s greatest stadium apart. Earlier this month, we released a video showing the first-of-its-kind dual-sided 70,000 square foot video board rising into place above the field at SoFi Stadium. Like you, we had August 2020 circled on our calendars as the first time we could all come together at SoFi Stadium for a Rams game. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to alter plans for the upcoming season to ensure the safety of our players, staff and fans. In light of the most up-to-date regulations and restrictions in California, and specifically Los Angeles, as well as from the NFL, we want to provide you the latest information regarding Rams games this year. ​ ​ 2020 Season Update ​ We anticipate that the NFL will cancel preseason games, which means the first NFL game at SoFi Stadium would be our Week 1 Sunday Night Football opener against the Dallas Cowboys on September 13th. In hopes of having fans at the opener, we ask that you please join us in wearing a mask to help stop the spread of COVID-19. If fans are allowed to attend games at any point this year, Rams gamedays will look different based on guidelines provided by the CDC, NFL, and state and local officials. We anticipate that stadium capacity would be limited to approximately 15,000 seats per game to allow for social distancing. Wearing a face covering will be required for the safety of fans, players and staff. Additional information on safety protocols can be found in the [www.therams.com/tickets/covid-faq]FAQs. Since we are unable to accommodate all SSL holders in a reduced capacity stadium for all games, we are making the difficult decision to defer 2020 season tickets to the 2021 season. All season ticket payment plans will be halted, effective immediately. Payments made toward 2020 season tickets can be kept on your account to be used toward 2021 season tickets or you may receive a refund. All single game tickets purchased from the Rams and Ticketmaster will be canceled and refunded. Additional information on your tickets can be found in the [www.therams.com/tickets/covid-faq]FAQs. ​ ​ Your Tickets - 2020 Season Options ​ If a limited number of fans are permitted to attend games, SSL holders will have the option to purchase tickets for individual games through a process we will share at a later date, with priority given to Members who stay on for the 2020 season. In the interim, each Season Ticket Member must select one of the following choices by July 31: Opt out of the 2020 season:By doing so you are confirming that you do not wish to attend games this season even if we are able to host a limited number of fans. If you wish to opt out and have not already done so, please click on the Opt Out button below. No action is necessary if you already opted out. Opting out means: Any funds paid toward 2020 season tickets will be applied to your 2021 season tickets unless you request a refund You will keep your seats for the 2021 season at the same price There is no impact on parking for 2021 Your SSL commitment remains You will receive the annual Season Ticket Member gift You are guaranteed continued access to member benefits including virtual experiences, discounts and free mobile RedZone and Game Pass Stay on for 2020 Season: If fans are allowed at SoFi Stadium for games this season, you will receive priority access to purchase individual game tickets and parking based on a process determined at a later date. You can apply your 2020 season ticket payments towards the purchase of these individual game tickets. Stadium Seat Licenses (SSLs): All SSLs will be extended by one year and thus remain a fifty (50) year license. SSLs must remain in compliance to purchase 2021 season tickets. ​ ​ ​ ​ If you have any questions, concerns or require additional information, please contact your Member Services Representative John Billingsley by emailing jbillingsley@rams.nfl.com or calling or texting 818-540-2014. Additionally, our [www.therams.com/tickets/covid-faq]FAQ page may provide helpful answers to some of your questions. SoFi Stadium will not be truly complete without all of our Season Ticket Members coming together to create a home field advantage. We look forward to the day when we can all be back together cheering as one. -Los Angeles Rams

Stay on for the 2020 Season
If fans are allowed in SoFi Stadium this season, opting-in via this form will maintain your priority access to purchase individual game tickets that may become available.
Please note however that due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, gamedays at SoFi Stadium will look different this season and the potential impact on stadium capacity will likely affect ticketing policies.
The following protocols will likely be in effect at SoFi Stadium:

• If fans are allowed at Rams home games, capacity would likely be limited to approximately 15,000 guests based on current CDC guidlines. This is subject to change based on state, local and federal guidelines.
• Fans must wear a mask on the face at all times unless actively eating or drinking. This includes inside clubs and suites.
• Social distancing will be enforced at all times. Congregating in concourses will be actively discouraged by stadium staff.
• Seating blocks will be set up to promote social distancing, with separation of 6 feet between blocks. Seating block sizes will vary and able to accommodate between 1 and 10 guests.
• The first seven rows of the stadium will be eliminated and covered with tarps to protect players and coaches.
• All purchase stations will be strictly cashless. If you need to convert cash to gift cards, “reverse ATMs” will be available on each concourse.
• Hand sanitizing stations will be located throughout the stadium.
• Tailgate parking may be available but in a limited capacity. Social distancing will be enforced and congregations outside of those attending the game with you will be discouraged.
• Health screening measures will be implemented and are likely to include a signed waiver prior to entering SoFi Stadium as well as staff temperature checks.

Please note the additional potential impacts on ticketing policy for Season Ticket Members:

• Due to the uncertainty around fans being allowed at games and capacity limitations, we cannot guarantee a specific number of games that Season Ticket Members will be able to purchase.
• Any funds paid toward 2020 season tickets will remain on your account to be used toward the purchase of individual game tickets for a limited number of games, if fans are allowed in stadium. Any money remaining after the purchase of 2020 individual game tickets will be rolled over to your 2021 season tickets.
• It is highly unlikely that you will be able to purchase your exact seats for games during the 2020 season due to the altered stadium manifest to allow for social distancing.
• While you will be able to transfer and resell tickets, you must do so while protecting ticket blocks. You cannot resell a portion of your tickets for a game to avoid having groups sitting directly next to each other who do not know one another. For example, if you purchase four seats for a game, you cannot sell only two of the tickets, as you must attend with family members or trusted acquaintances to limit viral spread. Also, you cannot split the four seats into two pairs and sell each of those pairs. This is to ensure that each block contains only family members or trusted acquaintances. If you choose to sell or transfer part of a ticket block, you may lose the right to purchase future tickets and have your SSL terminated.
• If tickets are sold for any games, first priority for tickets will go to Season Ticket Members who opted to stay in for the 2020 season. Season Ticket Members who opted out of the 2020 season would have the next presale opportunity to purchase tickets before any remaining tickets are made available to the general public.

For additional information and FAQs please visit our website.
Please elect either this option or the option to opt-out of the 2020 season (available in your email) by July 31.

Yeah, it’s a bummer. I opted out. Could use some extra cash at the moment and would prefer my first SoFi experience to be when it’s full and without the worry of a global pandemic.

It sucks for fans and our new stadium.

Just thinking about this... It would be quite the story to tell, however, if you’re one of the 15,000 that get to see a game in that brand new stadium at such capacity for major event. What an odd experience that would be.

Yeah, If we manage to get tickets to the first game it will really be surreal. I'm pretty sure though that Newsome won't allow fans to attend.
