The Oakland A's: Packing Their Helmets for Vegas, But Hold the Dice (For Now)
Ah, the Oakland A's. A team steeped in history, a loyal (if sometimes frustrated) fanbase, and a stadium situation that makes musical chairs look stable. But fear not, A's fans (and curious baseball observers)! We're here to answer the burning question: when exactly will the green and gold be swapping out earthquakes for erupting slot machines?
| What Year Will The Oakland A's Move To Las Vegas |
California Dreamin'... Not Anymore
Let's be honest, the A's and the Oakland Coliseum haven't exactly been a match made in heaven. Leaks? We got leaks. Amenities? Let's just say they haven't exactly kept up with the Joneses (or the Red Sox, for that matter). So, the A's set their sights on greener pastures, or should we say, brighter lights? Enter Las Vegas, baby!
Sin City or Swing City? 2028 is the Big Bet
The A's have their sights set on a shiny new stadium in Las Vegas, slated to open in 2028. That's right, folks, mark your calendars! Get ready for baseball with a side of blackjack (although, gambling on the A's might not be the wisest financial decision...).
Now, there's always a chance for a fumble (because, hey, baseball!), but as of now, 2028 is the year the A's will officially become Sin City sluggers.
QuickTip: The more attention, the more retention.
Here for a Good Time, Long Time (Except Not That Long in Sacramento)
But wait! What happens between now and 2028? Don't worry, A's fans, you won't be baseball-less. The team will be setting up shop at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento for the 2025-2027 seasons. Think of it as a little spring training... that lasts three years.
So, there you have it! The A's are Vegas-bound, but with a little Sacramento stopover. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go update my fantasy baseball team name to something Vegas-themed. "Moneyball Martians" anyone?
