By coming back to Los Angeles, the Rams home attendance has jumped by nearly a quarter million people.

I took the average home attendance and added it to their already calculated total. Last year (2015) their home attendance was league low at 419,220.

This year, they are on pace for 668,102.

 

It will be interesting to see if LA will keep up the attendance in years to come.

LA is a way bigger market. Of course they are going to have a spike in attendence. Theyve already talked about some games recently where the stadium was enpty or fans leaving at halftime though...just like back in the day. LA loves ya when your winning, but when youre not the casual fan seems to lose a lot of interest.
That game vs 9ers looked like they were in San Franciso

The Rams old stadium in St. Louis has a maximum capactity 66,000. The stadium they have now has a maximum capacity of 93,000
Understand that most tickets are sold in the off-season, year two and three will be better indicators of success. Regardless the market was a clear choice for a team, in today's sports atmosphere, LA is attempting to become the Brooklyn Nets of the NFL. The LA market is appealing to the celebrity demographic. They are aiming to be a club with a football game in the middle of it. Developing fan loyalty based on winning or tradition come last in that market and any loyalty is derived from media rhetoric,

I believe thats over the whole season not each game. The stadiums aren't that big.
Just wait until the novelty wears off.
