We just hit our 15th year for the stadium here in San Diego. Do I want to renovate? Build a new one?

Our current stadium:

Opened in 2022

Retractable Roof. Grass

62700 capacity
14700 Club Seats
184 Luxury Boxes
Very Good condition
Good Turf and Parking
No support for projects locally.
We only filled about 60% of the total from last


We did have a lack of cash from the last season. Now I could submit a new stadium plan, and then when it gets rejected, we’d be able to move elsewhere. Just like potentially in real life. But I like the Chargers in San Diego and not someplace like Las Vegas or Chicago or San Antonio or something.

San Diego in 2037:

3.620 mill
6.0 % Growth
58k average income
19.2% poverty level
Very High Entertainment Competition – 92nd percentile
High Trend Setting = 72nd
1 team without 250 and 4 within 500 miles.

We have the region to ourselves, with the Rams down by LA, and the other two teams as well up north.

Now, what are the biggest cities without a franchise?

Chicago
Riverside
Anaheim
St. Louis
New Brunswick
Newark
San Jose
New Haven
Sacramento
San Antonio

All have at least 2 mill folks.

I offer a plan for a huge, expensive stadium that would really put our own one to shame, knowing we’d likely lose, just in case I want to open up that window later

Staff Draft – We pick 26th:

I make no changes to my staff.

Anyone I wanna franchise?

Yup. I tag K Elijah Fields
