As for people not caring about putting on sports at a party, well you nailed that one. Most transplants here are theater majors, after all.

Redondo Beach - but I did live in Valley Village for a while. I told people I lived in N. Hollywood because Valley Village sounds so lame. My roommate told people she lived in Studio City, because she wanted to sound posh.
I was actually at the game last week at Jalapeno Pete's - that was a blast. Although my dumbass buddy thought 1.5 hours early would be good enough to get a seat. Then he proceeded to drink $300 worth of high-end tequila shots between he and his gf and was a walking zombie by halftime. I spent the whole 4th Q worrying he was going to puke on himself, or me. Dude is coming over to my place this weekend. ****ing hell.
I saw plenty of people dressed in Rams gear at the game vs. the Chiefs, but I know one Rams fan in real life here that I can think of who actually gives a shit.
The rest are the kind who will watch the game and kind of identify as a Rams fan since they have no other fandom, or they have some kind of dual-fandom with their hometown team. If the Rams win next week they'll be excited about watching them at a Superbowl party. If the Rams lose they'll get over it in about 5 minutes.
I've tried to become a fan of teams out here. Can't do it. Nothing sticks but the Chiefs and Royals, which I couldn't shake if my life depended on it.
