The Inglewood location of Los Angeles donut chain Randy’s Donuts recently repainted its famous sign yellow and blue in a show of support for the Los Angeles Rams in their Super Bowl LIII matchup vs. the New England Patriots. The donut shop also painted its building and temporarily changed the sign’s name to “LA Rams Donuts,” with the Nike swoosh logo appearing on both structures. According to Randy’s Donuts, the week leading up to the Super Bowl was the first time the sign has been completely repainted, though it has been wrapped on previous occasions. The sign’s numerous TV and film appearances include Robert Downey Jr.’s title character sitting in the donut in Iron Man 2.
