Fans are ripping on the NFL for announcing State Farm Stadium as their backup location for the\u00a0Los Angeles Rams-Minnesota Vikings\u00a0Wild Card Game if the contest cannot be held at SoFi Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Southern California Wildfires that began on Tuesday have caused at least six deaths, according to multiple reports. The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection\u00a0reports\u00a0that over 5,000 structures have been destroyed, with 92 total wildfires burning over 29,000 acres.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the NFL announced that the plan is still for SoFi Stadium to host the Rams-Vikings game. But if necessary, they\u2019ll relocate the Monday night contest to State Farm Stadium, the\u00a0Arizona Cardinals\u2019 home venue.<\/p>\n

Now, the NFL is receiving widespread criticism for using State Farm Stadium as a backup plan. That\u2019s because as CBS MoneyWatch\u00a0reports, State farm \u201cdropped\u201d around 1,600 policies in the Pacific Palisades and over 2,000 in multiple Los Angeles neighborhoods.<\/p>\n

\u201c@NFL says if the California wildfires aren\u2019t under control by Mon the MIN\/LAR wildcard game will be moved to Glendale\u2026at State Farm Stadium\u2026the same State Farm insurance that canceled everyone\u2019s fire insurance policy because Cali wouldn\u2019t let them jack up premiums. lol,<\/strong>\u201d\u00a0<\/em>a fan wrote.<\/p>\n
