Also according to Wikipedia, A fee of $30,000 as of 2012 must be paid at time of the selection. This os collected to pay for the creation and installation of the star, as well as general maintenance of the Walk of Fame. The fee is usually paid by the nominating organization meaning that the Rams would have paid for Rampage’s star.

Nonetheless, it is cool to see the Rams represented on one of Hollywood’s most popular tourist attractions and monuments.
