Sports and Hollywood go together as well as just about any combination of things. So when the Los Angeles Rams returned home, it was only natural that they would pick right back up where they left off.
Since coming back to Los Angeles, the team has had a number of Hollywood’s elite come to visit them at practice as well as attending the games. Most recently, the Rams hosted comedian Kevin Hart and actor Scott Eastwood as honorary members of team practice.

Following a quick morning pep talk, Hart took a ride on the lineman sled.

Hart and Eastwood even competed in a few drills with the team that included route-running, a push-up contest, and a 40-yard-dash. Believe it or not, the race between Hart and receiver K.D. Cannon was actually a lot closer than you might expect — for the first 15 yards.

That's one way to end practice. Thanks for coming out today! #WhatTheFit pic.twitter.com/4tzzmTkRW5

It wasn’t the first time Los Angeles had such well-known visitors at practice. Last year, the Rams welcomed two local boys in rappers Kendrick Lamar and Schoolboy Q. Despite their horrendous 4-12 finish in 2016, seeing A-listers on the sidelines of the Coliseum on Sundays has become somewhat of a normal occurrence.
However, if they want to reach the status of their neighboring Los Angeles teams like the Lakers and the Dodgers, they will first need to show the city they are capable of winning.
