I lived out in southern california for a bit as well and there is definitely a divide between LA and San Diego and the two don't mix. If told they live in southern california, San Diego folks will make it very clear that they arent to be lumped in with LA. Couple that with Spanos giving them them finger and it isn't surprising at all that San Diego locals refuse to drive up to LA to support an LA Chargers team. I doubt Spanos expected a huge contingent to follow the team. Even though I dont live in Jacksonville anymore, if the Jags were to leave, I wouldnt continue to support them. Would either ditch the NFL entirely or slowly go back to being a Dolphins fan who I rooted for before the Jags became a team.

As far as the picture of the packers fans in LA, a lot of those folks dont look like they are from wisconsin. A lot of those folks look hispanic. Probably LA locals that picked the Packers as their team growing up. I never believed teams like the Packers, Steelers, Cowboys, etc... travelled well but instead just had fans everywhere as they are popular teams.
