The full NFL schedule dropped on May 14 which is a big day for NFL fans planning to travel to road games. Lions‘ fans have represented very well on road games over the past few seasons from my direct observations.
Here is the Los Angeles Rams/Chargers stadium review from my NFL Stadium Rankings and Travel Guide 2026 – where I rank 11 stadiums I’ve visited in recent years:
#1 – Los Angeles Rams/Chargers (Sofi Stadium)
I’ve been to 2 Lions games in LA – 1 each for the Chargers and Rams. This stadium clearly stands out as the nicest of all I’ve visited.
In person, the exterior architecture looks as great as it does on TV. But what makes this stadium special is the ridiculously nice, interior concourses. It’s like you’re walking around a luxury hotel rather than the concrete jungle of typical stadiums.
There are an infinite number of escalators connecting all the different sections inside, which also serves to gatekeep the sections. This seems to help prevent some areas from becoming overcrowded which is nice.Food options are plentiful, fancy, and varied. If you want the nicer, premium menu items, you’ll want to get it early before the lines start getting ridiculously long.
While the stadium itself is majestic, the immediate surrounds of the stadium are barren, so you’ll need to find somewhere else to hang out before and after the game. This also means that there are no walkable hotels worth staying at.
Pro tip: Parking at the nearby Forum is easy and convenient. You need to book a spot in advance. Getting in and out by car was faster than I expected.
