Rams troll 49ers with boombox graphic after key division win originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Winners get bragging rights – and you don’t have to tell the Los Angeles Rams twice about that.
After the 49ers’ disappointing 12-6 loss to the Rams on Thursday at Levi’s Stadium, Los Angeles wasted no time in rubbing salt on San Francisco’s sick wound.
The Rams immediately took to X, formerly known as Twitter, after the win to apologize to coach Kyle Shanahan and Co. to troll with an image of the 49ers’ boombox — the centerpiece of the team’s pregame ritual — in the trash.
The pregame boombox entrance has been a 49ers tradition for some time, gaining national fame during San Francisco’s wild-card victory over the Dallas Cowboys in the 2021 NFL playoffs.
Since then, many teams have used the boombox in attempts to take shots at San Francisco, making the Rams’ taunt somewhat unoriginal.
Anyway, Los Angeles has almost ended their NFC West rival’s already razor-thin playoff hopes.
The battered 49ers, who are 6-8 after their Week 15 loss, surrendered their first season sweep since 2018 to the Rams.
Now, Los Angeles trolling may lack originality, but in the end they earned the right to mock San Francisco, which is last in the division.
If the 49ers need any motivation to beat the Arizona Cardinals in Week 18, look no further.
