SoFi Stadium is NFL’s ‘bougiest,’ study finds

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:11:48 GMT

If there was one word to describe your favorite NFL team’s stadium, would it be “bougie?” According to Merriam-Webster, “bougie” (pronounced boo-gee and alternatively spelled "boujee") is defined as “marked by a concern for wealth, possessions and respectability.” As it turns out, every professional football stadium has a certain “bougie score,” according to new research by online gaming experts at Casino.org.  New study shows which days Lakers and Clippers are most likely to win Researchers used several metrics to come to their conclusion on the "bougiest" stadium, including stadium capacity, the number of luxury suites, how many bathrooms and concession stands are in the stadium and the overall cost of construction. Each stadium was given a score between 0 and 100, with 100 being the most "bougie." Based on their findings, L.A.’s very own SoFi Stadium came out with a weighted “bougie score” of 100. A general view of the interior of SoFi Stadium is seen...
