Jason Kelce and the Philadelphia Eagles made easy work of the LA Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sunday. They went into halftime with a 3-point lead and put up 6 points in the 4th to beat Matthew Stafford’s Rams 23-14.
A few days later, Travis and Jason are discussing how playing in Los Angeles is basically a home game for them.
On the latest episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce (Presented by Wave Sports + Entertainment), Travis and Jason praised the atmosphere and experience at SoFi Stadium where the Los Angeles Rams call home. And they weren’t cruel to LA Rams fans, necessarily, but they took swipes at the attendance and pointed out how it’s virtually a home game for them with over 50% of the fans in attendance rooting for their teams every time they’re in LA.
Travis and Jason Kelce: Playing In LA Is Pretty Much A Home Game
Jason: “It felt a little bouncy which just kinda threw me off a little bit in warm ups, but by the time you’re warmed up and playing, you’re not noticing it. I think overall, the stadium experience was phenomenal, and I think part of that is heightened by the fact that at least half of the fans are Eagles fans and that always makes it more fun at an away game.”
Travis: “LA has pretty much been a home game for us too every time we go out there too.”
Jason: “A lot of transplants. Really cool stadium. Obviously Rams are an incredible team. Man, Aaron Donald… we had a lot to try and get ready for. It’s always the most unique game plan we have whenever we play Aaron because he’s that good and you can’t let him ruin the game.”
BroBible‘s Brandon Wenerd, a born-and-raised Eagles fan who has found himself out in Los Angeles for years, was at the game. He has pictures and videos showing firsthand how the Eagles fans outnumbered the Rams fans at the stadium.

As for the Travis and Jason Kelce getting LeBron James on their show, this LA trip would have been perfect timing. LeBron had sent them a message about coming on as a guest.
Speaking about that, Jason Kelce said “we’ve been trying to get him on the show for a while. I know he’s acting like he’s just coming on now but we’ve been trying to get him up here for a minute.”
