Oakland Athletics relocation to Las Vegas is an ongoing effort by the ownership of the <a href="/wiki/Athletics_(baseball)" title="Athletics (baseball)">Athletics</a> of <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball" title="Major League Baseball">Major League Baseball</a> (MLB) to relocate the franchise from <a href="/wiki/Oakland,_California" title="Oakland, California">Oakland, California</a>, to the <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas_Valley" title="Las Vegas Valley">Las Vegas metropolitan area</a>. The team was based in Oakland from 1968 through 2024, during which it won four <a href="/wiki/World_Series" title="World Series">World Series</a> titles. Their relocation would make them the second major sports franchise to move from Oakland to Las Vegas, following the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Raiders" title="Oakland Raiders">Oakland Raiders</a> of the <a href="/wiki/National_Football_League" title="National Football League">National Football League</a> (NFL) <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Raiders_relocation_to_Las_Vegas" title="Oakland Raiders relocation to Las Vegas">making the same move in 2020</a>. With four locations, the A's have had the most homes of any MLB team.<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> The relocation effort follows years of numerous failed attempts to replace the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Coliseum" title="Oakland Coliseum">Oakland Coliseum</a> with a more modern stadium in the <a href="/wiki/San_Francisco_Bay_Area" title="San Francisco Bay Area">Bay Area</a>. In 2023, the team announced it was planning to build <a href="/wiki/New_Las_Vegas_Stadium" title="New Las Vegas Stadium">a new ballpark</a> in the Las Vegas Valley, causing negotiations over the proposed <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Ballpark" title="Oakland Ballpark">Oakland Ballpark</a> at Howard Terminal to collapse. Initially, the team's agreement to build a new ballpark in Las Vegas started at the <a href="/wiki/Wild_Wild_West_Gambling_Hall_%26_Hotel" title="Wild Wild West Gambling Hall & Hotel">Wild Wild West Gambling Hall & Hotel</a> but later shifted to the <a href="/wiki/Tropicana_Las_Vegas" title="Tropicana Las Vegas">Tropicana Las Vegas</a> with a 1,500 room hotel and casino. On June 15, <a href="/wiki/Governor_of_Nevada" class="mw-redirect" title="Governor of Nevada">Nevada governor</a> <a href="/wiki/Joe_Lombardo" title="Joe Lombardo">Joe Lombardo</a> signed an MLB stadium funding bill worth $380 million, known as SB1, into law. Not long afterward, the Athletics announced they would begin the relocation process to Las Vegas when the bill was signed.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> By June 21, the team had begun the relocation process with MLB by drafting a relocation application.<a href="#cite_note-Akers062123-3">[3]</a> The application was submitted to MLB by August 23.<a href="#cite_note-Fisher082323-4">[4]</a> The move was unanimously approved by MLB ownership on November 16, 2023 during the owners meeting in <a href="/wiki/Arlington,_Texas" title="Arlington, Texas">Arlington, Texas</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FeinsandAs-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-unanimous-6">[6]</a> The Athletics' lease with the Oakland Coliseum expired at the end of the <a href="/wiki/2024_Oakland_Athletics_season" title="2024 Oakland Athletics season">2024 season</a>.

It will mark the first relocation of an <a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> team since 1972 when the <a href="/wiki/Washington_Senators_(1961%E2%80%931971)" title="Washington Senators (1961–1971)">Washington Senators</a> relocated from <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a>, to the <a href="/wiki/Dallas%E2%80%93Fort_Worth_metroplex" title="Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex">Dallas–Fort Worth</a> suburban city of Arlington, becoming the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Rangers_(baseball)" title="Texas Rangers (baseball)">Texas Rangers</a> and first relocation for MLB overall since 2005 when the <a href="/wiki/Montreal_Expos" title="Montreal Expos">Montreal Expos</a> departed from <a href="/wiki/Montreal" title="Montreal">Montreal</a> to Washington, D.C., to become the <a href="/wiki/Washington_Nationals" title="Washington Nationals">Washington Nationals</a>. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Oakland_Athletics_relocation_to_Las_Vegas&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Background">edit</a>]</div> The <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Athletics" title="Oakland Athletics">Oakland Athletics</a> were founded as a charter member of the <a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> (AL) in 1901 as the <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Athletics" title="Philadelphia Athletics">Philadelphia Athletics</a> and shared the same city with the <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Phillies" title="Philadelphia Phillies">Philadelphia Phillies</a> of the <a href="/wiki/National_League_(baseball)" title="National League (baseball)">National League</a> (NL). Between 1901 and 1954, the Athletics played their home games at <a href="/wiki/Columbia_Park" title="Columbia Park">Columbia Park</a> and <a href="/wiki/Shibe_Park" title="Shibe Park">Shibe Park</a> in <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia" title="Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a> under the ownership of <a href="/wiki/Connie_Mack" title="Connie Mack">Connie Mack</a>. In 1955, Mack sold the Athletics to <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a> businessman <a href="/wiki/Arnold_Johnson_(industrialist)" title="Arnold Johnson (industrialist)">Arnold Johnson</a>, who moved the team to <a href="/wiki/Kansas_City,_Missouri" title="Kansas City, Missouri">Kansas City, Missouri</a>, to become the <a href="/wiki/Kansas_City_Athletics" title="Kansas City Athletics">Kansas City Athletics</a> and played at <a href="/wiki/Municipal_Stadium_(Kansas_City,_Missouri)" title="Municipal Stadium (Kansas City, Missouri)">Municipal Stadium</a> until 1967. However, Johnson died from <a href="/wiki/Cerebral_hemorrhage" class="mw-redirect" title="Cerebral hemorrhage">cerebral hemorrhage</a> while watching the Athletics' <a href="/wiki/Spring_training" title="Spring training">spring training</a> in <a href="/wiki/Florida" title="Florida">Florida</a>, and the team was sold once more to another Chicago businessman, <a href="/wiki/Charles_O._Finley" class="mw-redirect" title="Charles O. Finley">Charles O. Finley</a>. Finley sought to move the team out of Kansas City as early as 1961, when he courted <a href="/wiki/Dallas-Fort_Worth_Metroplex" class="mw-redirect" title="Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex">Dallas-Fort Worth</a> to AL owners, but nothing came out of it. Four years later, he would sign an agreement to move the team to <a href="/wiki/Louisville" class="mw-redirect" title="Louisville">Louisville</a>, where they would rebrand themselves as the "Kentucky Athletics," but this never came to fruition as the AL blocked the move. Other cities considered by Finley included <a href="/wiki/Atlanta" title="Atlanta">Atlanta</a>, <a href="/wiki/Milwaukee" title="Milwaukee">Milwaukee</a> (the previous home of the <a href="/wiki/Atlanta_Braves" title="Atlanta Braves">Atlanta Braves</a> from 1953 to 1965), <a href="/wiki/New_Orleans" title="New Orleans">New Orleans</a>, <a href="/wiki/San_Diego" title="San Diego">San Diego</a> and <a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>, all of which would gain their own MLB teams, except for New Orleans. In 1968, Finley chose to relocate the Athletics to <a href="/wiki/Oakland,_California" title="Oakland, California">Oakland</a> and share the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Coliseum" title="Oakland Coliseum">Oakland Coliseum</a> with the <a href="/wiki/American_Football_League" title="American Football League">American Football League</a> (AFL)'s <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Raiders" title="Oakland Raiders">Oakland Raiders</a>. The Athletics became Oakland's third professional sports team<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> after the Raiders and the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Seals" class="mw-redirect" title="Oakland Seals">Oakland Seals</a> of the <a href="/wiki/National_Hockey_League" title="National Hockey League">National Hockey League</a>, who had commenced play a few months earlier as part of the <a href="/wiki/1967_NHL_expansion" title="1967 NHL expansion">1967 NHL expansion</a>. Oakland would go on to become a four sports city in 1971, when the <a href="/wiki/Golden_State_Warriors" title="Golden State Warriors">San Francisco Warriors</a> moved across the Bay and rebranded themselves as the Golden State Warriors. It would retain this status for five years, after which the Seals (by then renamed the California Golden Seals) relocated to <a href="/wiki/Cleveland,_Ohio" class="mw-redirect" title="Cleveland, Ohio">Cleveland, Ohio</a> and became the <a href="/wiki/Cleveland_Barons_(NHL)" title="Cleveland Barons (NHL)">Cleveland Barons</a>. The Athletics' streak of success in the city in the early 1970s, known as the "<a href="/wiki/Swingin%27_A%27s" title="Swingin' A's">Swingin' A's</a>" era, saw the team win <a href="/wiki/Threepeat" class="mw-redirect" title="Threepeat">three straight</a> <a href="/wiki/World_Series" title="World Series">World Series</a> titles in <a href="/wiki/1972_World_Series" title="1972 World Series">1972</a>, <a href="/wiki/1973_World_Series" title="1973 World Series">1973</a> and <a href="/wiki/1974_World_Series" title="1974 World Series">1974</a>. By the end of the decade, the team was in a full-fledged rebuild as Finley had considerably reduced investments into the team and many star players left to other teams via <a href="/wiki/Trade_(sports)" title="Trade (sports)">trades</a> and the newly-implemented <a href="/wiki/Free_agency" class="mw-redirect" title="Free agency">free agency</a> process. To save money, Finley even severed the team's local television and radio broadcasting contracts, making it very difficult for fans to follow the team. Attendance plummeted at the Oakland Coliseum, reaching a low point on April 17, 1979, when only 653 fans attended a game against the <a href="/wiki/Seattle_Mariners" title="Seattle Mariners">Seattle Mariners</a>.<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> Finley, by this point, had begun to explore selling the Athletics to another buyer who would move the team from Oakland, with <a href="/wiki/Denver" title="Denver">Denver</a> and the aforementioned New Orleans as options. <a href="/wiki/Louisiana_Superdome" class="mw-redirect" title="Louisiana Superdome">Louisiana Superdome</a> officials pursued negotiations with Athletics officials during the 1978–79 baseball offseason about moving the Athletics to their facility, but Finley was unable to break the team's lease at the Coliseum and the A's remained in Oakland.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a> In 1980, Finley agreed to sell the team to a Denver interest in industrialist <a href="/wiki/Marvin_Davis" title="Marvin Davis">Marvin Davis</a>, but when the Raiders <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Raiders" title="Los Angeles Raiders">announced their move to Los Angeles</a> shortly after that same year, the city of Oakland and <a href="/wiki/Alameda_County,_California" title="Alameda County, California">Alameda County</a> refused to allow the Athletics to break their lease at the Coliseum. Finley was forced to sell the team in August 1980 to <a href="/wiki/Levi_Strauss_%26_Co." title="Levi Strauss & Co.">Levi Strauss & Co.</a> CEO <a href="/wiki/Walter_A._Haas_Jr." title="Walter A. Haas Jr.">Walter A. Haas Jr.</a>, who was committed to keeping the team in Oakland. Spending on the Athletics resulted in the team making three consecutive trips to the World Series, winning the title in <a href="/wiki/1989_World_Series" title="1989 World Series">1989</a> over the cross-bay <a href="/wiki/1989_San_Francisco_Giants_season" title="1989 San Francisco Giants season">San Francisco Giants</a> in the notorious <a href="/wiki/1989_Loma_Prieta_earthquake" title="1989 Loma Prieta earthquake">1989 Loma Prieta earthquake</a>-interrupted series. When the Raiders returned to Oakland in 1995, the Coliseum would be renovated to increase its capacity for football with a structure known as <a href="/wiki/Mount_Davis_(Oakland)" title="Mount Davis (Oakland)">Mount Davis</a>, which made the facility less than ideal for baseball as the large section of seats above forced them to add <a href="/wiki/Tarpaulin" title="Tarpaulin">tarpaulin</a> and obscured the view of the hills of Oakland. Following Haas' death in 1995, the team was sold to <a href="/wiki/Stephen_Schott" title="Stephen Schott">Stephen Schott</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ken_Hofmann" title="Ken Hofmann">Ken Hofmann</a>.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> In 1999, Schott and Hoffman put the team up for sale and had an agreement in place to sell the team to an ownership group led by the <a href="/wiki/Save_Mart_Supermarkets" title="Save Mart Supermarkets">Save Mart Supermarkets</a> CEO Robert Piccinini and sports executive <a href="/wiki/Andy_Dolich" title="Andy Dolich">Andy Dolich</a>, with plans to build a new ballpark in Oakland, but the sale was blocked by MLB commissioner <a href="/wiki/Bud_Selig" title="Bud Selig">Bud Selig</a> as he ordered the owners to table the vote to effectively kill the deal.<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> In 2001, the Athletics began looking at sites in Oakland for a new ballpark, starting with sites in <a href="/wiki/Uptown_Oakland" title="Uptown Oakland">Uptown</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Estuary" title="Oakland Estuary">Estuary</a>, but neither of those sites–or a site at 66th Avenue–gained any traction. In 2005, the Athletics were sold to <a href="/wiki/Lew_Wolff" class="mw-redirect" title="Lew Wolff">Lew Wolff</a> and <a href="/wiki/John_Fisher_(baseball_owner)" class="mw-redirect" title="John Fisher (baseball owner)">John Fisher</a> in what turned out to be a controversial move. <a href="/wiki/Joe_Lacob" title="Joe Lacob">Joe Lacob</a>, who would become the owner of the <a href="/wiki/Golden_State_Warriors" title="Golden State Warriors">Golden State Warriors</a> in 2010, revealed that he had an agreement with Schott and Hoffman to purchase the team, but Selig would block that sale and only allow the team to be sold to Wolff, who was Selig's fraternity brother in college.<a href="#cite_note-Lacob-12">[12]</a> After the sale, a plan for a ballpark in <a href="/wiki/Fremont,_California" title="Fremont, California">Fremont</a> known as Cisco Field materialized to replace the aging and outdated Coliseum before that plan fell through.

Controversially, the official MLB broadcast of the game cropped out these signs leading the league to apologize, "We were unaware of the edit.

Additionally, a credit enhancement would be used for the ballpark to improve the chances of repayment along with a two-year debt reserve account and the ballpark itself would be owned by the Las Vegas Stadium Authority, similar to Allegiant Stadium upon completion while Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. contributed to the project free of charge.<a href="#cite_note-71">[71]</a> On May 24, Governor Joe Lombardo announced the agreement with the Athletics, Treasurer Zach Conine, and Clark County officials in a press release for the bill's sending to legislature.

When asked about the playing field, Clark said, "We would have to make sure that the quality of that turf, if that's what happens, or the quality of the grass and the support for it, if that's what happens, is up to snuff." Clark also noted that if the Athletics were to play at Las Vegas Ballpark temporarily for three seasons, it would be a challenge due to not having a roof to protect players from the sun and brought up the issues of playing field, health, safety, accommodations, travel, and schedules, and that the MLBPA will have conversations on these issues pertaining to the Athletics possibly sharing it with the Aviators. On Oracle Park, Clark mentioned that the MLBPA could be involved in discussions about having the Athletics play in the same venue with the cross-bay Giants but noted they would engage in a different conversation by the time the votes are cast.<a href="#cite_note-112">[112]</a><a href="#cite_note-113">[113]</a> When reports of Reno being considered an option were published, the city's mayor <a href="/wiki/Hillary_Schieve" title="Hillary Schieve">Hillary Schieve</a> said they had not had any conversations with the Athletics organization about sharing Greater Nevada Field with the Aces but were open to discussing the possibility of the proposal.<a href="#cite_note-114">[114]</a> During the <a href="/wiki/2023_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="2023 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">2023 Major League Baseball All-Star Game</a> in <a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>, Manfred confirmed the Athletics had started the relocation process to Las Vegas by submitting information for the application.<a href="#cite_note-115">[115]</a> However, Oakland Mayor <a href="/wiki/Sheng_Thao" title="Sheng Thao">Sheng Thao</a> met with Manfred during the All-Star Game to share documents with him and 29 other MLB owners outlining the city's plans to build a new ballpark at the Coliseum or Howard Terminal from years prior in a bid to keep the Athletics from relocating to Las Vegas.<a href="#cite_note-116">[116]</a> After Thao met with Manfred, the Athletics announced their sponsorship for the softball charity game Battle for Vegas in Summerlin's Las Vegas Ballpark and a fan fest held alongside this event with the Golden Knights and Raiders, making this first time the team supported an officially-sanctioned event in the Las Vegas area.<a href="#cite_note-117">[117]</a> On July 13, Hill revealed that the Athletics would not fully use $380 million in public funding to finance the new ballpark at the Tropicana.

backlash as well, with several commentators feeling that he was being disrespectful towards Oakland and ignoring the reality of the situation in order to support an owner who could not afford to keep the team in Oakland.<a href="#cite_note-174">[173]</a><a href="#cite_note-175">[174]</a><a href="#cite_note-176">[175]</a> While most of the criticism was directed at Fisher, Kaval, and Manfred, Jon Becker of the <a href="/wiki/San_Jose_Mercury" class="mw-redirect" title="San Jose Mercury">San Jose Mercury</a> points out that <a href="/wiki/Bud_Selig" title="Bud Selig">Bud Selig</a>, who was the MLB commissioner from 1992 to 2015, is the person most responsible for enabling this relocation to materialize.<a href="#cite_note-Lacob-12">[12]</a> In 1999, despite overwhelming support by the city of Oakland and investors, along with a verbal agreement and an established plan to build a new ballpark at the Coliseum site by Piccinini and Dolich, Selig blocked the sale and afterwards, he came out and said that he believes that moving the Athletics to Oakland in 1968 was "a horrible decision" and "the worst mistake" in baseball history, indicating that he was against the team staying in Oakland and wanted the Giants to be the only Bay Area team. As such, Selig was accused of using his authority as commissioner to manipulate the sale process so that Wolff could own the team, who he got acquainted with from college and knew was willing to move the team out of Oakland. This included blocking the sale to Joe Lacob, who was interested in buying the team and building a privately financed ballpark in Oakland, after he reached a verbal agreement and an ownership group led by <a href="/wiki/Microsoft" title="Microsoft">Microsoft</a> CEO <a href="/wiki/Bill_Gates" title="Bill Gates">Bill Gates</a> and former Athletics superstar <a href="/wiki/Reggie_Jackson" title="Reggie Jackson">Reggie Jackson</a> whose bid was significantly higher than what Wolff and Fisher paid. Jackson intended to file a lawsuit against Selig and MLB, but never did after being warned by top executives that he could be <a href="/wiki/Blacklisted" class="mw-redirect" title="Blacklisted">blacklisted</a> from the industry if he filed.<a href="#cite_note-177">[176]</a> Instead of having a normal sale process in which the outgoing owners decide who to sell the team to with the approval process by the other owners being just a formality, Selig used his authority as commissioner to deny approval for any potential ownership group other than Wolff and Fisher to buy the team. Economist J. C. Bradbury, an economics professor at <a href="/wiki/Kennesaw_State_University" title="Kennesaw State University">Kennesaw State University</a> and a staunch critic of publicly funded sports stadiums, has cited the A's proposed Las Vegas ballpark as a prime example of a stadium that will have no positive impact on the local economy despite the promises of those involved. Other economists and economics professors have generally agreed with Bradbury's claims.<a href="#cite_note-178">[177]</a><a href="#cite_note-179">[178]</a><a href="#cite_note-180">[179]</a><a href="#cite_note-181">[180]</a> Former <a href="/wiki/Miami_Marlins" title="Miami Marlins">Miami Marlins</a> and <a href="/wiki/Montreal_Expos" title="Montreal Expos">Montreal Expos</a> executive <a href="/wiki/David_Samson_(baseball)" title="David Samson (baseball)">David Samson</a> has been heavily critical of Fisher and Kaval, arguing that the A's and Las Vegas are moving ahead with relocation despite having no clear plan on many aspects of the deal.<a href="#cite_note-182">[181]</a> Former A's executive Steve Pastorino, who now lives in Las Vegas, called Kaval "a walking, talking bobblehead" during public comment on SB1, telling Nevada legislators that they should be distrustful of Kaval and saying "There are so many holes in what the A's are trying to sell us, I can't cover it in two minutes (the maximum amount of time for which individuals were allowed to speak during the public comment session)."<a href="#cite_note-si.com-163">[163]</a> At a panel discussion of Las Vegas sports executives hosted by <a href="/wiki/The_Nevada_Independent" title="The Nevada Independent">The Nevada Independent</a> on October 9, 2023, representatives from the <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas_Raiders" title="Las Vegas Raiders">Las Vegas Raiders</a>, <a href="/wiki/Vegas_Golden_Knights" title="Vegas Golden Knights">Vegas Golden Knights</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas_Aces" title="Las Vegas Aces">Las Vegas Aces</a> all expressed either ambivalence or negativity about the possibility of the A's joining their city. Raiders owner Mark Davis in particular blamed the A's for hindering progress at building a new football stadium for the Raiders in Oakland, which caused them to move to Vegas.<a href="#cite_note-183">[182]</a> While announcing his retirement on October 16, 2023, former A's pitcher <a href="/wiki/Trevor_May" title="Trevor May">Trevor May</a> spoke very negatively of Fisher, criticizing both his ownership style and his plans to move the franchise. May also openly expressed support for the "Sell" movement during the same commentary.<a href="#cite_note-184">[183]</a> At a Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce event on January 24, 2024, which included a segment about the A's, the mention of the team's potential relocation drew a harshly tepid, unenthusiastic response from the crowd, prompting the event's emcee to quip "Are we alive back there, Las Vegas?"<a href="#cite_note-185">[184]</a> In a podcast interview on February 6, 2024, Las Vegas mayor <a href="/wiki/Carolyn_Goodman" title="Carolyn Goodman">Carolyn Goodman</a> stated her belief that the A's should work out a stadium deal in Oakland rather than relocate. She walked back these comments to an extent later in the day, but in doing so reiterated her opinion that Oakland is the ideal city for the franchise.<a href="#cite_note-186">[185]</a> Among people
