The Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings will play their upcoming NFL Wild Card game in Arizona amid deadly wildfires raging around Los Angeles.
On Thursday, the NFL announced the news, stating that “in the interest of public safety” the game — originally set for SoFi Stadium — will now take place at State Farm Stadium, the home of the Arizona Cardinals. Tickets will go on sale for the game on Friday.
The news comes as no surprise, as more than 100,000 people have evacuated the Los Angeles area due to the wildfires, with at least five reported deaths and hundreds of destroyed structures.
