Well, most likely for economic reasons. Oakland sorta has the reputation of being "ghetto" in comparison to SF.
Its about 15 to 20 mins away depending on traffic...this,move also cause a bigger divide between the two cities....smh
That's awesome the rewarded all the loyal fans of Oakland with an experience 99% of them won't be able to afford now it's in San Francisco. ****ing parking will probably be $50 alone. THATS SO KIND OF YOU GSW!!!
Separated by a toll bridge and it isn't cheap, it ain't $1.50 like here, more like $5 and rush hour $6. It is going to be a smart move, more corporate in SF than Oakland, importantly, attract more fans. As some1 who know a little about SF, it won't be fun driving to the game, parking and driving around there is no fun.
They were the San Francisco Warriors before, playing in the Cow Palace in Daly City and before that spilt their games between the Cow Palace and the SF Civic Auditorium.
You're insane. The Warriors need to be back in the city. O-County stadium is a dump. The Embarcadero is getting a major facelift thanks to America's Cup, and you've also got the Exploratorium being built at Pier 15. It's going to be sick. And why are you complaining about parking, when you can BART it for $4?
