The LA The Clippers are moving closer to no longer having to share Crypto.com Arena with the Lakers for home games, as owner Steve Ballmer boasted that his team’s new arena has three times the league average of restrooms.

Players and officials gathered at the construction site Tuesday to celebrate the installation of the latest steel beam, but the Clippers executive seemed more excited about the arena’s restrooms.

Appearing at the nearly completed Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Californiaon Tuesday, was Microsoft The chief was particularly excited that fans will no longer have to refrain from using the toilets when their team plays down next season.

– Restrooms! Ballmer shouted. “1160 toilets and urinals! Three times NBA average! We don’t want people standing in line. We want them to go back to their d*** seats at the end of the half or before the game.”

The 66-year-old American businessman has previously shared that he has become “really obsessed” with the number of toilets his team’s new home will have during the arena’s ground-breaking event in 2021.

“Toilets, toilets, toilets!” he added.

The arena holds up to 18,000 fans and is being built by consulting firm AECOM

The arena will also have a large outdoor area with several basketball courts for fans

The Clippers have never won an NBA championship since they first entered the league as the Buffalo Braves, then the San Diego Clippers, before finally moving to City Angeles in 1984.

The Intuit Dome, which is expected to be completed by 2024, is located near the LA Chargers’ SoFi Stadium and is believed to have cost $2 billion.

In 2019, the Clippers announced that their new home would be able to hold up to 18,000 fans. The seats will be designed by multinational infrastructure consultancy AECOM.

Additionally, the arena will include a training facility, sports medicine clinic, team offices, retail space and a large outdoor area with multiple basketball courts where fans can play pickup basketball.

Technology will also be everywhere, such as some that will allow fans to leave their seats, walk up to a stand in the concourse, grab a drink or snack, and then — if they do, as Ballmer hopes — immediately return to their seats.

There would be no cashier, no one to take the order, and the customer’s account would be charged automatically. Apart from paying for it, it would be like opening the fridge at home, having a drink and returning to the sofa.

After last season, Ballmer indicated that it was finally time for the Clippers to step out of the shadow of the Lakers and find their own home, as both teams have shared Crpyto.com Arena, better known as Staples Center, since 1999.

The arena is primarily associated with the Lakers, where the Purple & Gold won six championships.

“We’re nobody’s little brothers, we’re a real team,” Ballmer, whose $90 billion makes him the eighth-richest person on Earth, told ESPN.

“At the end of the day, we’ve still got to win games, we’ve got to win championships. If we can deliver that to Clipper Nation and fulfill my responsibility as a steward, then I’ll feel good.”

The Harvard grad was even spotted in pictures from the arena’s construction site on Tuesday before signing a mural with the team’s current players, including stars Paul George, Kawhi Leonard and Russell Westbrook.

The Clippers currently hold a 34-33 overall record this season and are the eighth seed in the Western Conference – the final automatic playoff spot.
