The Rams football team was originally founded in Cleveland in 1936. They played in Cleveland until 1945 and then moved to Los Angeles in 1946. The team stayed in Los Angeles until 1994, after which they relocated to St. Louis and became the St. Louis Rams. In 2016, the Rams moved back to Los Angeles, where they currently play. Here is a summary of their locations before Los Angeles:
- Cleveland, Ohio: 1936 to 1945
- Los Angeles, California: 1946 to 1994 (including a period playing at Anaheim Stadium in Orange County from 1980 to 1994)
- St. Louis, Missouri: 1995 to 2015
- Returned to Los Angeles in 2016
So, before being known as the Los Angeles Rams, they were the Cleveland Rams. After Los Angeles and before returning, they were the St. Louis Rams.
