Rams Sell Out Season Tickets, Will Start To Offer Single-Game Tickets

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — The Rams completed their season-ticket sales process Tuesday as all $100 deposit holders bought the entire allotment of 70,000 tickets that were made available.

Deposits were taken for about two weeks earlier in the year after the organization gained approval to move from St. Louis to Los Angeles, and it's safe to say the L.A. fans were more than excited to see their newest professional team play.

By the time the franchise got through the first six hours of deposit holders, the season tickets were gone.

Rams COO Kevin Demoff told the Los Angeles Times that "to sell out of season tickets in the first six hours upon our return to Los Angeles is both humbling and a reminder of how excited Angelenos are about the return of the Rams and the NFL.

"As both Los Angeles' first pro sports team and its newest sports team, the bond between this team and the community is evident and strengthening each day."

The Rams will begin to sell single game tickets to the public this week, and those who were unable to purchase season tickets for the upcoming season will be given top priority in the order in which they placed their deposits earlier in the year.

Jake Bye, Rams vice president overseeing ticket sales, said "a very limited number" of single-game tickets will be released to the general public on July 28.

"At the outset, we were committed to providing the opportunity for all of our initial deposit owners to purchase a ticket to a Rams game, working to ensure the tickets ended up in the hands of Rams fans, and creating the best home-field advantage in the NFL this fall," Bye wrote in an email that will be sent to deposit holders.
