Derek Metoyer on his longtime appreciation for Rams and downtown Los Angeles

When Metoyer isn’t at the “Rams House” for a home game, he enjoys taking advantage of the walkability and accessibility of his downtown neighborhood.

“The first time I ever visited New York, I was amazed at how everything you’ve ever needed is all in one place,” Metoyer said. “Downtown Los Angeles is essentially a very small, compact Manhattan. You have high-end restaurants and pubs, a great nightlife, rooftop bars and all the coffee shops you could ever want. What I like most about downtown is that once I get home, I don’t have to get into my car and go anywhere to get anything. Everything is a quick walk in any direction, which is a great benefit for visitors.”
