Thanks OccamsRazor. Although that was about the year I began playing, I do not remember the game being moved. I appreciate the info.
Hog, you were right, that was not what I was looking for but I appreciate it anyway. I thought about that after my post. Although they did play at U of I they still had a strong hometown fan base. Not as much as at Soldier Field though. The Seahawks also played at the University of Washington a few years back but also had hometown support.
Tonight, from what I have heard, there will be very few real "Charger fans" at the game. It looks like it will be mostly people from a college like town with free tickets. Interesting situation.
