Personal seat license holders sue Rams

Source: STL Post Dispatch

Some holders of Rams personal seat licenses are suing the team’s owners alleging that the licenses should remain valid even though the team is leaving for Los Angeles.

They argue in the lawsuit filed in St. Louis County Circuit Court that they purchased their PSLs under an agreement that the licenses would stay valid until March 2025, no matter where the Rams play.

“It’s our position that our clients are entitled to either purchase tickets for the games being played in L.A., or whatever stadium they’re being played at, or to transfer their PSLs, which is a right to purchase tickets up through 2025,” said David Bohm, the lawyer who prepared the lawsuit.

A Rams executive declined on Wednesday to comment on the lawsuit.

PSLs were a dubious piece of crap when they sold them. Building a stadium for the billionaire wasn't enough. Someone had to pay for the move, too.

Bon Voyage Rams.

sorry, hated the Rams ever since I was a kid, LA doesn't need them. And California taxpayers don't need to pay for this move. F**k the NFL.

Their property is being taken from them. It all depends on how the contract was worded.
