The notice on Ticketmaster that restricted NFC Championship Game tickets to those with Los Angeles-area ZIP codes had abruptly and unceremoniously disappeared from the ticketing site’s website by Monday morning.

Previously, a fan attempting to buy tickets would see a notice alerting them that"Public sales to the game at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA will be restricted to residents of the Greater Los Angeles region,” and, “Residency will be based on credit card billing address at checkout.”

It appears the Rams are already afraid that the 49ers will again make SoFi Stadium their home — they're trying to restrict ticket sales for a potential NFC title game by geography.

Because no one in LA was buying tickets SF fans shouldn’t buy them either make la look like fools

If it was not for social media, we never would have known about this.

Just after the lawyers started taking notice…

but hey it’s worth $500 to see be in the same building without seeing anything.

The Rams finally figured out those niner fans buying tickets are from SoCal. I rarely see any Giants hats at the games in LA.

It sounds as if ticket sales were lagging. Niners fans will snap those babies up if Rams fans aren't interested.

This is a bit misleading because the restriction only applied to primary tickets (directly from Ticketmaster), which went on sale yesterday afternoon and are now sold out. Only secondary (resale) tickets are available now, which they weren’t limiting.

Previously, a fan attempting to buy tickets would see a notice alerting them that 'Public sales to the game [...] will be restricted to residents of the Greater Los Angeles region,” and, “Residency will be based on credit card billing address at checkout.”

LA Rams ticket policy restricts SF 49ers fans from NFC Championship gameDespite all the excitement and enthusiasm, we may not see too many Niner fans in the stands on Sunday in Los Angeles. That's by design. Isn’t that a type of discrimination? You’d think that’s a lawsuit waiting to happen if you’re discriminating by location. Granted the game is in a week, but if you wanted to sue claiming discrimination that could play out for some time. But the fact they’re doing it…illegal? BEAT LA Secondary ticket markets like StubHub, GameTime, etc... don't care about any of that. This is a none story since other teams have tried the same ploy and it doesn't work.
