LA Chargers Season Tickets: Fans Can Start Placing Deposits
LA Chargers fans can begin putting down $100 deposits for the 2017 season at the StubHub Center in Carson.
LOS ANGELES, CA -- The newly announced Los Angeles Chargers will play the next two seasons at StubHub Center in Carson, which is home to the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer, and a website has already been established for fans interested in placing a deposit on season tickets.
StubHub Center will seat about 30,000 people for Charger games, including about 3,000 premium and field seats, 46 suites and 16 cabanas. There are about 10,000 on-site parking spaces, according to AEG, which owns and operates the stadium.
At 30,000 seats, the StubHub Center has less than half the capacity of the Chargers' long-time home of Qualcomm Stadium. There was no immediate word on what tickets will cost at the new venue.

Fans can go to www.FightforLA.com to place a refundable $100 deposit on season tickets for the 2017 season. Current Chargers season ticket holds will maintain their ticket-buying priority and are not required to make a deposit.
The $100 deposit will allow fans to reserve up to four seats at StubHub Center. People who buy season tickets for games at StubHub will also have priority to purchase tickets when the team moves to the new stadium in Inglewood, beginning in the 2019 season.
