\n\tBillboard was in the building when the Rams beat the Colts in week 4, and music took center field. Here are seven moments that capture how the Rams continue to redefine what game day can look (and sound) like:<\/p>\n

\t\t1. VIP Tailgate at CineVita Sets the Game Day Tone<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tAt most stadiums, tailgating means folding chairs and cooler beer. In Inglewood, it means a red carpet and a DJ booth. The CineVita Tailgate is the Rams\u2019 luxury pre-game ritual \u2014 a place where locals, celebrities and die-hard fans blend together for one purpose: to celebrate the L.A. Rams. Guests can catch other NFL games on the massive LED screens, play Xbox or trivia for prizes, or lounge on leather couches inside. The pre-game menu honestly tastes like something out of a food festival: loaded potato skins, Ortega taco bars, lemon pepper wings, and a maple-drizzled chicken and waffles station.<\/p>\n

\t\t2. Mariachi Rams Represents L.A. Culture<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tFew teams showcase their city\u2019s identity like the Rams do through music. The Mariachi Rams \u2014 the NFL\u2019s first-ever mariachi ensemble \u2014 have become a fan favorite for the way they blend tradition with modern flair.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cTo be the first NFL mariachi ensemble is an absolute honor and a great responsibility,\u201d the group told Billboard. \u201cWe might be the first mariachis someone ever sees, so we give it everything every time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTheir setlist jumps from classics like \u201cEl Rey\u201d to mariachi renditions of 2Pac\u2019s \u201cCalifornia Love\u201d and Selena\u2019s \u201cBidi Bidi Bom Bom.\u201d \u201cWe take contemporary hits and put a mariachi twist on them,\u201d they said. \u201cIt honors the genre while paying homage to the pop moments fans love.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t3. SoFi Stadium Turns National Anthem Into a Statement\u00a0<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tAt SoFi, the national anthem isn\u2019t just tradition; it\u2019s\u00a0the\u00a0show opener. Singer\/songwriter Madilyn Bailey described it as a career milestone. \u201cSinging the national anthem at a Rams game can now be checked off my bucket list,\u201d she told Billboard. \u201cI\u2019m not originally from Los Angeles, but the second I stepped off my first plane here, I knew this was my city and these were my people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHer performance carried a message of ambition that fits the energy of LA. \u201cEveryone in this stadium is chasing something,\u201d she said. \u201cIf a girl from a town of a thousand people can find herself singing in front of 70,000, anything is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t4. The Crucial Catch Halftime Brings Rachel Platten to Fight<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tEach season, the Rams and Cedars-Sinai transform SoFi Stadium into something bigger than football through the NFL\u2019s Crucial Catch initiative, which honors cancer survivors and their families. This year\u2019s ceremony recognized 12 \u201cCrucial Catch Captains,\u201d each representing stories of strength and survival. Among them was linebacker Shaun Dolac, who lost his father to stage four cancer in 2016.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe highlight came at halftime when singer\/songwriter Rachel Platten<\/a> took the field to perform her anthem \u201cFight Song.\u201d \u201cThe energy is unbelievable,\u201d Platten told Billboard. \u201cThere are 70,000 people, and you\u2019re feeding off the team\u2019s energy. The Rams scored a touchdown right before I went on, so the whole place was already lit up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFor Platten, the moment carried a deeper purpose. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t about me,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was about the survivors and the people supporting them. My mom is a cancer survivor, so I wanted to channel that strength. This performance was service, not perfection.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t5. Loud Luxury Turns SoFi Stadium Into the Club<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\"Rachel<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLos Angeles Rams<\/p>\n

\n\tCanadian DJ duo Loud Luxury<\/a> brings in club-level energy to SoFi with an electrifying set. \u201cIt\u2019s unique because everyone is there for the game first and foremost, so it feels like a chance to win over new fans,\u201d they told Billboard. \u201cAlso, playing earlier in the day is definitely a bit of a body shock for both of us since our average bedtime is about 4 a.m.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTheir set bridges the worlds of sports<\/a> and nightlife. \u201cFans play a huge role in the game atmosphere,\u201d they said. \u201cOur main goal is to energize the crowd, and if that can influence the game in any way, that\u2019s a win for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t6. The Rams Junior Cheerleaders Take Over The Field<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tBefore kick-off, nearly 300 Rams Junior Cheerleaders performed a four-minute routine alongside the official squad, showcasing the team\u2019s dedication to community and youth involvement. The program, which builds confidence and teamwork among kids ages 5 to 14, has become one of the most wholesome traditions on game day.<\/p>\n

\t\t7. Hollywood Park Extends the Game Day Experience Beyond the Stadium<\/strong>\t<\/p>\n

\n\tEven after the final whistle, the energy carries through Hollywood Park. Fans can head to The Meeting Spot for drinks, catch a movie at Cinepolis Luxury Cinemas, or experience COSM\u2019s immersive visuals. In American Airlines Plaza, $5 Bud Light specials, face painting and games keep the atmosphere lively through sunset.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Few NFL teams merge culture, community and together quite like the two-time Super Bowl-winning Los Angeles Rams, and…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":358533,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,1318,2961,224,5337,5499,1232,62],"class_list":{"0":"post-358532","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-la","12":"tag-los-angeles","13":"tag-losangeles","14":"tag-music-news","15":"tag-nfl","16":"tag-sports"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115499737651373437","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=358532"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358532\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/358533"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=358532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=358532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=358532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
