Death of a Sports Town Part 2: Reverse Boycott
Manage episode 439116577 series 2733382
Any time a franchise owner threatens to leave a city, the pressure and scrutiny on civic leaders intensifies. But in Oakland, a parallel story emerged—a group of activist fans who refused to let the Athletics go quietly.
In the second part of our series, Death of a Sports Town, we examine the three men who led the Warriors, Raiders, and Athletics away from “the Town,” the reasons behind their decisions, and the intimate story of one fan who launched a movement to fight back.
Our five-part series ‘Death of a Sports Town’ publishes every Tuesday in the ESPN Daily show feed.
