History Lesson

Celebrities at Super Bowl 56

Amidst the roaring spectacle of Super Bowl LVI, Hollywood's luminaries converged at SoFi Stadium. The Los Angeles Rams, playing in their city, drew not just sports aficionados but also the glittering stars of entertainment. This fusion of film, music, and sports was a dance only Los Angeles could choreograph.

LeBron James, the basketball colossus, celebrated with fervor. His tweet, a testament to the bond between athletes, resonated with many. Danny Trejo, Hollywood's rugged face from "Machete" and "Spy Kids," showcased more than just support. His LA Rams-themed donuts at Trejo's Coffee & Donuts became a sweet symbol of his allegiance.

But the Super Bowl's allure isn't limited to the Giants. Niall Horan, the pop sensation, rejoiced at the Rams' victory march. Alyssa Milano, seamlessly blending activism with acting, proudly sported Rams colors. Their diverse backgrounds painted a vivid tapestry, echoing a truth: the Super Bowl, mirroring Los Angeles, is a vibrant mosaic of talent, dreams, and unyielding passion.

Charlie took to the written word like a fish takes to water. That is to say; they found themselves immersed in literature from before they were born. They've been known to tell their friends how they can still remember the passages their parents read to them when they were in utero - Emily Dickinson, Jane Austen, and a bit of Hunter S. Thompson thrown in to balance it out. Charlie keeps their feet wet, whether they're whipping up pithy one-liners to tease your brain or busy working on their second novel (the first one is available on Amazon under a pen name they refuse to disclose). You’re sure to get a kick out of giggle-worthy explanations and outrageous hints, and still come away feeling like you’ve just expanded your knowledge base.

The Marvel of SoFi's Videoboard?

SoFi Stadium, the opulent new home of the Los Angeles Rams and Chargers, boasts a feature that's nothing short of revolutionary. Suspended 122 feet above the playing field is the world's first dual-sided, center-hung videoboard. This isn't just any videoboard; it's an evolution in how fans engage with the game, offering a unique experience unlike any other stadium.

While AT&T Stadium introduced the “JerryTron” and Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium unveiled the first 360-degree “Haloboard,” SoFi Stadium's videoboard has truly raised the bar. Initially dubbed the "Oculus," it had to be renamed due to confusion with a virtual reality company bearing the same name. Pete Soto, the Chargers' vice president of fan experience, aptly coined it “The Mothership.”

Designed by Lance Evans from the HKS design firm, this videoboard is seamlessly integrated with the stadium's architecture. Its elliptical shape and unique design allow light to flow through, ensuring that fans always feel connected to it without being overwhelmed. With a staggering 70,000 square feet of digital LED space, it's the largest of its kind. And it doesn't stop there; it's also the first and only board capable of displaying 4k video from end to end.

Weighing in at 2.2 million pounds, the construction and elevation of this behemoth took nearly six months. Stretching 120 yards in length, its largest panels tower at 40 feet tall. Samsung, the tech giant behind the videoboard, faced the challenge of ensuring consistent display quality across all seating levels. The result? A screen that offers unparalleled clarity, color, and quality.

The sheer size of the videoboard allows for a multitude of feeds. Whether it's fantasy stats, instant replays, live action, or even multiple events, the possibilities are virtually limitless. Pete Soto, having worked with the “Haloboard” in Atlanta, remarked on the board's exceptional quality, stating, “When you look at the quality and the clarity and the color, it is phenomenal. It really is one in a million.”

While fans may have to wait to experience this marvel in person due to the ongoing pandemic, the players are in for a treat. As Chargers receiver Keenan Allen aptly put it, “The video board is dope, just the way it circles the whole field. It’s going to be exciting and hard not to watch."

So, next time you're tuning into a game at SoFi Stadium, remember: you're witnessing a piece of technological history that's truly one in a million.
