The Rams sold out the Coliseum for the first 30 years they were in Los Angeles. Frontiere moved them to Anaheim, which isn't Los Angeles, nor is it in Los Angeles County.

The Rams were a great team in the 80's. It wasn't until the early 90's that attendance dropped due to the fact that Frontiere was trying to get out of her Anaheim deal and of course, jumped to St. Louis.

The Rams are back home, where they belong.

And yes, the St. Louis is a shitty football town. The Cardinals were awful and the attendance was crap. As soon as the Rams started faltering, the crowds disappeared.

Furthermore, the city only offered to build a stadium once it was readily apparent that Kroenke was planning to move but regardless, Kroenke was moving them back to Los Angeles.
