SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, home to the Rams & Chargers, will host Super Bowl 61 in February 2027, but don’t rush out to buy your tickets just yet because they won’t go on sale for another 4-years.
The stadium last hosted the Super Bowl in 2022, and has hosted a number of big sporting events including the 2023 College Football Playoff National Championship between Georgia and TCU, WrestleMania 39 in April of 2022.
In the future SoFi Stadium will be one of the host cities for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and along with the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, they will be hosting the 2028 Summer Olympics.
Interesting fact:
“The five-year turnaround for SoFi Stadium to host the game will be the second-shortest in the 21st century. Hard Rock Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins, had a three-year gap between Super Bowls in 2007 and 2010.”
Hosting the Super Bowl is obviously a big deal for the host city, but it’s an even bigger deal for the television network that people tune in to watch the big game. For the 2022 Super Bowl, the advertising revenue was a record $578 Million with a capital M.
For the winning team of the Super Bowl each player earns a bonus of $157,000 for playing in the Super Bowl, while players on the losing team earn $82,000 (not bad for losing). They also get a Super Bowl that is typically made of yellow or rose gold and encrusted with diamonds, and usually include the team’s name, logo, the phrase “World Champions” and the Super Bowl number indicated in Roman numerals. Each ring can be customized with the player’s name and uniform number.
That doesn’t sound cheap, so how much do these rings usually go for you might be wondering?
The final price of a Super Bowl ring usually comes in between $30,000-$50,000 per ring!
I don’t wear jewelry, or play for a Super Bowl winning Football team, but I wonder if they’d just cut me a check.
