I live in San Diego and I am a big Chargers fan. Over the years both the fans of the Chargers and the Raiders have had big rivalries. In the past several games in which Oakland played in San Diego, there were literally 98% Raiders fans in Qualcomm Stadium. I remember a couple years back when a Raiders fan stabbed a Charchers fan and got arrested. Many fans have gotten arrested because of fights.
Well this year, the Chargers have come up with a plan to eliminate these problems. Raiders fans will absolutely hate this. If you are going to buy a ticket to a Chargers/Raiders game you will have to buy at least one ticket to two other games. This applies to ALL fans, not just Raiders fans. This is not false because I heard it on the local news radio in SD. It was also in the San Diego Union Tribune. It most likely made it to the San Francisco Chronicle. I would not make this up if I knew it wasn't true. Is anybody here a fan of the Raiders? What do you think of this new policy? Give me your input. |

Raiders fans are obnoxious and are all show. It's funny that Raiders fans take up Qualcomm considering that they can never sell out at home. That tells you how much the Raiders aren't taken seriously here in the Bay Area, much less anywhere else.
But I think the policy is good for the Chargers. San Diego sports always gets the shaft in every other instance. (Padres? Horrible. Chargers? 94'? Fluke.) *I'm a Niner fan, if this explains anything above. Funny, since I was born in Oakland...) |
