The NFL is coming to San Diego to listen to and inform a populace concerned the city will lose the Chargers.

League staff will hold a public hearing from 7-10 p.m., Oct. 28 at Spreckels Theater as part of the NFL’s investigatory process as it evaluates possible relocation.

The forum is open to season ticket holders on a first-come, first-serve basis. Others can also apply for entry on a first-come, first-serve basis. Registration opens at 8 a.m. Tuesday at nfl.com/sdhearing. Written comments can be submitted at sdhearing@nfl.com.

Spreckels holds 1,463 people, according to its website. Online pre-registration and a non-transferable confirmation receipt with a valid bar code is required for entry. Comments from audience members will be limited to three minutes.


Those who do not gain entry to the event can watch via a live stream at nfl.com/publichearings.

The Chargers are one of three teams considering moving to Los Angeles as soon as next season. Along with the St. Louis Rams and Oakland Raiders, the Chargers are expected to apply for relocation in January. League owners said at their meetings earlier this month that they expect to vote in January on whether a team (or teams) can move.

The league is holding similar forums in St. Louis (Oct. 27) and Oakland (Oct. 29).
