Staying in Oakland for 2 years when you are definitely leaving seems like a really bad dynamic. Has that ever happened before where a team was 100% leaving and everyone knew it for 2 years? I would think fan interest would tank hard.

But I don't think they could move to LV early and play in a college stadium or anything. The biggest 1 would be the UNLV 1, I've been there and it is closer to a high school stadium than NFL stadium.

I wonder if they will limit season ticket sales to people with greater LV area addresses to avoid ticker brokers from buying them all up and selling to tourists.

I still think that would be preferable to staying in a city you've abandoned. The Raiders figure to be real good for the next few years, but if they're not, the situation could get real ugly in Oakland.

I would expect Vegas to get a Superbowl in the early 2020's, and become part of the regular Superbowl rotation, and become the best Superbowl town ever. Pretty ironic for a City that couldn't even use the name Superbowl for the casino parties.

You can have em !
Everybody says what a great fan base the Raiders have. The biggest thug fest at the games ever. I am sure the real gems of Las Vegas are going to come out with their mobs.

Football is best to be watched on TV, I've only been to one Ram's game that's it in my life. If I go to a live event it will be a Golden Knight's game.

Raiders will have the worst home field advantage in football. At least 25,000 visiting fans will be in the crowd each week. Local people who get season tickets will sell them on the secondary market at a big premium. People will plan a whole Las Vegas trip around their teams game in Las Vegas.
