It’s not terribly surprising to see Pittsburgh Steelers fans travel well. We’re also not shocked that the Los Angeles Chargers didn’t have a major home-field advantage at Dignity Health Sports Park on Sunday.
This represented a perfect storm. Steelers fans far outnumbered fans of the home team as the game kicked off. It really was something to behold.
This is crazy. Not a home game. @Steelers fans are so loud here. @SNFonNBC @NBCLA pic.twitter.com/ze2skxeYSN

You could tell that Steelers fans were prevalent in the stadium after Pittsburgh scored the first two touchdowns of the game. Check the first one out here. It sure seemed like this game was being played in Pittsburgh.
It also came after San Francisco 49ers fans far outnumbered Los Angeles Rams fans during the San Francisco's blowout win in Southern California earlier on Sunday.

This is not great for the Southern California NFL scene. That’s for sure.
