Mob Squad (fans)

Fans of the Los Angeles Rams pack a 2023 home game at SoFi Stadium

The Mob Squad refers to the Los Angeles Rams during their final season in St. Louis through the 2019 season following their return to Los Angeles. The name also refers to fans of the team, though other lesser-used nicknames for fans include The Herd, Ramily, Ramilia, or simply Rams Nation (primarily by players).[1] [2] The team has only officially used the moniker in official branding and merchandising from 2015 to 2019.[3][4] Numerous fans have adopted the name to refer to fans of the Rams as a whole.[5][6][7]

History

During the 1980s; Rams fan Lance Goldberg sought to create a similar iteration of the famous Cheesehead trend of Green Bay Packers fans wearing a block of cheese, though Wisconsin is famous for its dairy industry while watermelons do not have the same connection to Los Angeles.[8]

Though the Rams have not officially utilized the MobSquad moniker since the 2019 season; multiple fans of the team adopted the term 'MobSquad' in naming of their booster clubs following the team's relocation back to California.[9][10] A majority of current Rams fans have utilized the term since returning to Los Angeles in 2016.[11][12][13]

Celebrities

Given Los Angeles' extensive history in both the film and music industries; numerous celebrity fans have displayed support for the team, either during their original tenure in California or since their return in 2016.[14] Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello has been another longtime supporter of the team, even naming his son Roman in honor of former Rams' quarterback Roman Gabriel.[15] Actor Terry Crews is a famous fan of the team, with his connections with the franchise originating from the early 1990s in which he was drafted by the Rams during his brief NFL career.[16][17] Actor Danny Trejo recalls sneaking through the fence at the Los Angeles Coliseum to watch numerous Rams games as a child.[18][19][20] In addition to Trejo, numerous celebrities such as Kendrick Lamar, Bryan Cranston, or Taran Killam are often spotted at the Rams' training camp in Irvine, California.[21][22]

Notable fans

Controversy

As is similarly the case on occasion with Los Angeles Sports fans (particularly the Dodgers), Rams fans have developed a minor notoriety for misconduct and fights since their return in 2016.[75][76][77][78][79][80] Though not as notorious for violence as their rival 49ers,[81][82] their fans have similarly been criticized for rowdy behavior at home games, primarily aimed at division rivals such as the 49ers and Seattle Seahawks.[83]
