Inglewood NFL stadium delay means Chargers stuck at StubHub Center for three years

Aw, nuts.

The LA Times is reporting that Stan Kroenke’s 2.6 billion dollar Inglewood NFL palace has been delayed a year due to record rainfall, which temporarily halted the project at the worst possible time.

The weather brought work on the project to a standstill for two months earlier this year. The rain fell at a crucial stage of construction when work centered on digging the enormous hole — 5 million cubic yards of dirt were excavated — in which the stadium will sit. At times, the site looked like a lake, with water standing 12 to 15 feet deep.
