Each Chargers game, it seems as if the opposing team’s fan base takes over Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, making it an away game for the home-town team. With the massive amount of Raiders fans in Southern California, that was the case plus some Sunday.

The Chargers even took the field in their own stadium to a shower of boos.

Internally #Chargers fear it’ll be more than 50% #Raiders fans today at a home game. They actually pumped in crowd noise at practice. Crazy.

Chargers did not even bother announcing the team's starting lineup with all of the Raiders' fans on hand.
