Loyalty in Sports: Will I Still Support the A’s in Vegas?

Oakland Athletics baseball team players celebrating on the field after a game.

The Threat of Moving

For 45 years, the Oakland Athletics have been a constant in my life. While the franchise’s roots go back even further—to 1901 as one of the American League’s eight charter teams in Philadelphia—the A’s have always been Oakland’s team to me. The Athletics’ journey has been marked by change: after decades in Philadelphia (where they won five World Series titles under legendary manager Connie Mack), the team moved to Kansas City in 1955, and then to Oakland in 1968.

Since then, the A’s have become woven into the fabric of the Bay Area. I grew up watching legends like Rickey Henderson, Dave Stewart, Bob Welch, and Dennis Eckersley lead the team to glory, including the 1989 World Series championship. The “Moneyball” era of the early 2000s, with Mulder, Zito, and Hudson, brought a new wave of excitement and innovation to the franchise.

There have been relocation rumors before—talks of moving to San Jose, tense negotiations with the city—but each time, a last-minute miracle kept the team in Oakland. I always believed the A’s would never leave the Bay Area, especially after surviving so many transitions in their history.

This time, though, things feel different. Land has already been purchased for a new stadium, and the A’s have applied for relocation to Las Vegas. Friends who follow the situation closely still hold out hope, but for me, this feels like my worst nightmare coming true. The only baseball team I’ve ever supported is leaving its home. When the 49ers moved to Santa Clara and the Warriors to San Francisco, I stayed loyal because they remained in California. This move, however, is much harder to accept.

Will I Remain a Fan?

I’ve always believed that my loyalty is to the franchise, not the city—no offense to Oakland, which is rich in culture and history. My support for the Athletics isn’t changing, even if they move to Vegas. I’ll remain an A’s fan, but I won’t be attending many home games. The only chance to see them live will be when they play the Giants in San Francisco.

The end of the Bay Bridge Series is what hurts most. Of all my favorite teams and their rivalries, A’s vs. Giants was the last one standing. With this move, that tradition will be gone, and as a fan of the series, I’ll miss it deeply.
