The Oakland A’s released renderings of what they want their new Vegas stadium to look like on the Tropicana site… WTF?

I’m surprised it’s taken this long for the city to get pro teams. Casinos will always be the main attraction but what a nice little bonus to catch your favorite sports team when they play in vegas

Not saying you’re wrong, it’s great for the casual fan OR absolutely amazing if a fan of the visiting team.

Speaking from experience (lifelong Raiders fan), having your team play there is like watching a soulless, gimmick version. A whitewashed corpse of what they once were.

But still fun to attend!

Isn't the OYO property (former Hooter's) there as well?

You’re right - I meant it as a fan of the visiting team. Speaking of soulless whitewashed corpse - you’re talking to a lifelong lions fan lol

Baseball games are mostly in the evening when the weather is a lot nicer. Day time games would be downright dangerous. I imagine similar to those in Phoenix.
