#Bears fans likely outnumber #Chargers fans here tonight - already louder, and #Chargers ran out to some boos

With just a few minutes remaining before kickoff, some have estimated that Qualcomm Stadium will be 50 percent Bears fans, or more, by game time.

Soooo many #bears fans in San Diego. I predict they'll be more than half of crowd tonight, too pic.twitter.com/TV3mLREfEZ

Not sure if #Bears have more fans at Qualcomm Stadium than #Chargers, but #Bears fans are definitely louder.
