Now that the Rams are officially LA's NFL team, we can agree to never have football drama ever again because everything is perfect and we're all happy, right? Not so, according to a report that says the stadium in Inglewood that will house the LA Rams will cost an estimated $2.6 billion to construct (and we thought the recent Powerball numbers were huge). Such an outrageously large number is difficult to wrap your head around, so to help, we broke it down into things we do understand, like food and music festivals. Keep in mind that in our fantasy world, all goods are tax exempt. Let us know where the money would go if you could play God/Inglewood City Council for a day.
