SD stadium plan has edge over Chargers Carson digs

Should it get built, a Mission Valley soccer stadium will afford spectators a closer view of San Diego State football games than viewers will have of the Chargers at a Carson soccer stadium the next two NFL seasons.

Only 12 feet will separate the front of the main stands from the soccer sideline, said a partner of plan’s would-be overseers.

For Aztecs games the sidelines will shrink to conform to the football field, which is about 22 yards slimmer than a soccer pitch, but “because we’re so tight for soccer, it’s right-sized for football,” said Nick Stone of La Jolla- and San Mateo-based FS Investors group.
