Watch: Jimmy Kimmel spoofs Chargers' attendance woes

Attendance figures aren't yet available for the Los Angeles Rams or Chargers, but a simple eye test while watching their home games reveals plenty of empty seats.

The cast and crew of ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" are doing their part to bump ticket sales by creating a new promotional commercial for the Chargers to use, as they've been unable to fill the 27,000-seat StubHub Center. The spoofed advertisement turns the stadium into the setting of 'self-guided relaxation retreats,' where guests are free to make quiet phone calls without worrying about disturbing others. The facility boasts an abundance of available parking spots.

The NFC West-leading Rams, powered by the NFL's highest-scoring offense, are proof that winning doesn't necessarily draw crowds, after they ranked 31st in average home attendance last season while going 4-12. Their tickets sales have reportedly fallen by an average of 26,000 seats, according to Kimmel.
