LA Angels unintentionally troll St. Louis sports fans
On Wednesday, St. Louis sports fans got an unwelcome reminder that their NFL team bolted for LA.
The Cardinals were playing the Angels in Anaheim and this was an advertisement that was shown during the game (Craig Choate is with a TV station in Champaign, Ill.):
Cruel and unusual punishment for StL fans watching Cardinals/Angels tonight! @darrenrovell @PaulPabst @MattSebek pic.twitter.com/5Y3R72DGki

St. Louis fans took note and some were not happy.
Bummer seeing Rams ads behind batters at Angels Stadium for Cards game. #donewithnfl

.@Angels advertise the Rams all you want. Your team is embarrassingly terrible.

The good news for St. Louis is the Cardinals won 5-2. And, who knows? Maybe most St. Louis fans were watching the Blues game.
