Dallas Cowboys fans will flood Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum
Known as America’s Team for a reason, fans of the Dallas Cowboys are expected to flood Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum this Saturday night.
The Dallas Cowboys have one of the greatest luxuries in all of sports. Because their fanbase is so massive, away games can quickly turn into home games for the Cowboys as fans often flood the opposing team’s stadium. And this Saturday night doesn’t figure to be any different.
The Cowboys are scheduled to play the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs this weekend, with the game taking place at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
According to VividSeats.com’s current crowd projections, Cowboys fans will occupy a whopping 31% of the seats available at L.A. Coliseum.
That’s the largest opposing fan percentage of the four playoff games scheduled this weekend. The other road teams being the Los Angeles Chargers (18%) in New England, the Indianapolis Colts (20%) at Kansas City and the Philadelphia Eagles (25%) in New Orleans.
With two days left until kickoff, there is still time for these percentages to change. But there is little doubt there will be a large and loud contingent of Cowboys fans in Los Angeles for the team’s second playoff match following their 24-22 defeat of the Seattle Seahawks in the Wild Card round last weekend.
The Cowboys have a huge following in California as Oxnard has been their training camp home for several years now. And those fans often flood local stadiums during their preseason games as the team often will plays the Rams, Oakland Raiders and the San Fransisco 49ers due to their proximity to camp.
Having that kind of support undoubtedly is an X-factor for the Dallas Cowboys when they are on the road. And in what might be their most important away game in over two decades, the Cowboys could use all the support they can get to pull out a victory in Los Angeles.
