SoFi Stadium was among the hot spots to be this past season.

NBC Sports released the top 10 teams in attendance during the 2023 season, and the Chargers came in at No. 10 with 1.19 million fans.

This was total attendance, so home and away team fans were factored in. Nonetheless, it’s promising to know that seats were being filled.

Looking ahead to this upcoming season, the Bolts have a strong chance of surpassing the previous total, as they will be one of the most polarizing teams with Jim Harbaugh coming to Los Angeles.

After finishing with a 5-12 record, the hope is that Harbaugh can turn things around and make the Chargers a winning team, which will bring in more blue and gold in the crowd.
