Despite playing in a small market and among the notoriously fickle southern California fan base, the San Diego Chargers have emerged as a fairly successful franchise in the NFL. While the Chargers have certain limitations due to their venue, they ameliorate this in a number of ways, including the cuisine they offer, their tailgating experience, their involvement in the community and the type of players they have on their roster in order to generate and accumulate extensive and sustained relationship capital. Though the Chargers play host to one of the worst stadiums in the NFL, they deliver a solid game day experience for fans. Qualcomm Stadium was constructed in 19671, making it one of the oldest arenas in the league. As a result, San …show more content…
The venue is situated right next to a trolley station, providing a variety of ways for fans to get to the game. The stadium is also located immediately off of the I-10 and I-8 freeways, making it an easy to reach destination. The Chargers further enhance the tailgate experience by providing specialized parking, separating large RV's from the general public while also offering family parking to those patrons who wish to tailgate but don't want to be around alcohol2. In doing so, San Diego enhances a specialized experience for different segments of its audience and thus makes it more likely that a greater number of patrons will be repeat attendees. On game days the Chargers fence off a section of the parking lot for the “Bud Light Power Party”3, where fans can buy a diverse selection of food and drinks at a number of food trucks, listen to live music, watch an NFL game on one of the provided big screens, or avoid the hot weather and go and sit down under an expansive awning and watch any of the NFL games currently airing. Fans can also meet the Charger Girls or visit with and listen to the team's pregame radio broadcast which operates out of the Power Party. Such an event appeals to a
“The Green Bay Packers are a non-profit corporation held by the citizens of Green Bay to run it’s football team”,who I think are the best, arguably are the most storied franchise in the National Football League, were organized on Aug,11, 1919, in the dingy second-floor editorial rooms of the old Green Bay Press-Gazette building, located on Cherry Street in downtown Green Bay. Never imagining what might become of the semipro football team being formed that day, nobody documented who was there or how many were on hand. There had been no announcement of the meeting beforehand, and the Press-Gazette provided no details about it the day after.Whether a full complement of players attended or if it was simply a

History of the Football Team the Rams The history of the Rams has not always been in St. Louis as most of you. already know. In 1937 a group of business executives decided they wanted a home town football team, so they built a stadium that held 3000 people in the middle of Cleveland, Ohio. They held try outs for players who wanted to play.
...t their tickets in advance and get pumped to have a good time. My recommendations for tailgating would be all in the advertisement, CCU could make flyers that advertise for people to come out and tailgate before the games. Also regarding tailgating, advertise at local restaurants that they will be attending our tailgates, or even bring in more restaurants and local food places to come to the game and sell their food. There’s nothing wrong with having more food available at tailgates. My recommendations for the fan aspect of games and tailgates would be to do more fun things for the reserved tailgating they seem to be more on their own than anything, whereas if CCU put games or food by them it could make it more fun. Also, for fans CCU could make it rewarding and if they came to a certain amount of home games they could win a free Coastal football shirt or something.

Prior to the current stadium, the Cowboys’ home was one of the most recognizable professional sports stadiums of its time. According to Stadiums of Pro Football, “Texas Stadium, seated nearly 66,000 fans and was known for its partial roof where weather conditions could play a factor in each game,” (Page 1). Stated in the official Irving, Texas fact sheet pertaining to Texas Stadium “the stadium was constructed at a cost of 35 million and lasted from its opening date in 1971 until it was closed in December of 2008,” (Page 2). The new stadium built to replace Texas Stadium in 2009 named Cowboys Stadium, is luxurious to say the least, not to mention it is practically brand new. Altough 4 years later reported by Star Telegram, “Cowboys Stadium would now be known as AT&T Stadium under a multimillion-dollar naming-rights deal between the iconic football team and the Dallas-based ...
Ironically, the Cleveland Browns of the NFL who were a playoff caliber team every year, who had loyal fans and good attendance, lost their team to the city of Baltimore. Owner Art Modell moved his Cleveland Browns team to the city of Baltimore, with the promise of a cost free state of the art stadium, built by tax payers, and a larger market for their team to play in. The city of Baltimore welcomed the team wholeheartedly, after going through the same loss of a team, the Colts. The team is know called the Baltimore Ravens and play in a beautiful stadium complex in downtown Baltimore, Maryland. They have great fan support and Baltimore is once again a football town. The city of Cleveland on the other hand has been in shock after losing a team they loved and supported and are not very fond of Art Modell. The city of Cleveland will once again become a football town, with the expansion Cleveland Browns preparing for their inaugural season, beginning in the fall 1999. The city is once again very excited about the NFL and the “Dog Pound” will live again.
players around the NFL. The number of athletes that protested would increase from a couple on each team to nearly all of them. With the only exception being, the Dallas Cowboys. Who as a team took a knee prior to the anthem, but would all stand during it. This was due to the owner Jerry Jones why has said that no player will sit or take a knee on his team or he would cut them, but more on that later. Then there was one other person that would not join his team in protest. That person was Pittsburgh Steelers player Alejandro Villanueva. Who is a former United States Army Ranger.

The most-watched event in the US every year, the Super Bowl. The Super Bowl is the championship football game of the National Football League (NFL). A brief explanation of football is this, a game of two teams trying to score as many points as possible in the allotted amount of time. Each team has an offense and defense when the team is on offense they either run the ball or pass the ball to try and score a touchdown, while the opposing team's defense is trying to force the team's offense to give up the ball or the possession. If the team with the ball does score or is forced to give up possession, the offensive and defensive teams switch roles (the offensive team goes on defense and the defensive team goes on offense). The game is split into four, fifteen minute quarters. What makes football different from most sports is the violence and aggression of the game. In order to stop players with the ball you have to tackle them since every player is
When the people try to find their seats it can be frustrating because it is dark and they do not know the layout of the arena. Once they end up finding their seats there are normally people sitting in them or they are in the wrong one and have to move.
