Gus Obregon dons the “Ramator” costume at home games, and he goes over and above for good causes.
On the surface, the guy in the royal blue and gold superhero costume roaming the concourse at SoFi Stadium on Sunday afternoon might seem like just another superfan showing his loyalty to his favorite football team, the Rams.The Downey resident and lifelong Rams fan – yes, even during those lost 25 years the teams spent in St. Louis – dresses up as “Ramator” on game days.
He is also active in anti-bullying campaigns through the Elite Super Fans group, which encompasses fans of all 32 NFL teams and, according to its website, is dedicated to promoting “unity of all fans, encourage sportsmanship and to stop all forms of bullying.”“I have a grandson who is autistic and he loves Spider-Man,” Obregon said. “And one Halloween we were looking to put together something so he go in a Spider-Man outfit. I go, ‘Grandpa can’t find a Spider-Man mask like that.
“And then thereafter, I would get calls from parents that were on that side of the stadium, because their kids felt comfortable with me. And I started just walking from section to section, just sitting next to them and cheering with them. And it’s like they had a friend in me. And it was us. We were one team, you know, myself, that autistic child and those parents, and they felt comfortable. And so it started from there and it just kept going.
