This is not true.
There were hella people there.
People were lined along the streets chasing the parade.
Smear tactics.

As a Rams fan, its a little disappointing to see the lukewarm LA turnout but theres good reasons for it:
1. The West Coast is the least devoted sports region in the Nation. Outside of a few select fanbases (raiders, dodgers, niners, lakers), they dont have the fervor about sports the way the Midwest, South and East Coast do. Its too laid back, too busy with outdoors/other events and too rational a region to have that irrational love of sports that other areas do.
2. The Rams have moved more than any other NFL franchise. Difficult to build roots that way. Doesnt help that they moved to Anaheim then to St. Louis right during the time LA was becoming a predominantly Mexican city. Its a lowkey thing to notice, but the most successful teams/fanbases in North America came to prominence when they got good during a cities boom period (Cowboys got good when Dallas boomed in the 70s, The U were good when Miami was becoming a intl glamour city, Warriors are good when the Bay/Silicon Valley is booming, Seahawks got good when Amazon turned Seattle into a boom town, etc, etc)
3. Rams havent been back long enough for a generation to grow up with them. But its getting better. I was surprised at the love they got when I saw the week 3 matchup against the Bucs at SoFI

It’s funny when dudes who don’t even live in the city try to think they know the city. The Rams have a fan base here. Is it touching Dodgers and Lakers? Of course not. The Raiders are still LA’s team, but the Rams have made their home here before and the fans are still here.Seems like the fans came outIf the Rams keep winning they can win over gen z and Gen Alpha in LA
There’s definitely more Rams fans than Clippers and Chargers tho.

Honestly the Rams can take over LA when gen z and Gen Alpha gets older If they can consistently win no sneak dissing to raiders fans but I don't see them being yearly contenders anytime soonIt’s funny when dudes who don’t even live in the city try to think they know the city.

My homeboy from LA was mad as hell when they brought the Rams back and not the Raiders. nikka was like 'Don't nobody give a fukk about the Rams in LA like that, nikkas have always fukked with the Raiders, hell my mama named me after Marcus Allen.'
What the fukk was Jeb thinking saying this shyt? Still makes me laugh to this day. Had no chance to begin with but man he blew it on this dayDean Spanos during his speech…
Pandemic crowd huh? 
what about Tampa last year? They had a more live parade than this and them nikkas wasn't even on land. The Braves had WAYYYYY more people and baseball is nowhere near as popular as football.

When the Rams won i compared it to those veteran Marlins teams that won.. great team of vets but hired guns. But i didn't believe that was fair because the Rams have a real history..
it's a shame what happened they should have never left L.A. before.. but what can you do.

I would say that applies to the Raiders more than the Rams. They never really had the city to themselves, the Rams that is.
