My Final Oakland A’s Game At The Oakland Coliseum

[@gerrythrash6563]

I'm a lifelong Atlanta Braves fan living in Oakland. It really sucks to see this happening. I went to a lot of games at that Coliseum, and the vibe there is unlike any other ballpark. I loved it. The fact that it's being taken away makes me sick to my stomach. Fisher, MLB, the Oakland govt...they all failed us. I'm so sorry for the people of Oakland and fans of the A's.

[@thomasord8636]

Giants fan here, I'm 57. I die hard with giants, but I'm not one who hates the As. I've always been a fan, just not with same emotional attachments. I have a life long friend who is a die hard As fan. We have so many memories of going to see both teams throughout the decades...not quite old enough to remember the 70s championships well, but old enough to remember going to games in the mid n late 70s, through though times, when team wasn't good, and there would only be a few thousand at the game ..back the the chant was Let's Go A's! Then came Billy Martin, with Billy Ball in 81. Excitement was back! ...watching Rickey steal bases, and do his thing! And also, the begining of playing Celebrate. 🙂 The late 80s...what an effing team! Top to bottom, inside out. They were fun! But, as an orange n black bleeder, a bit envious. It's a shame they didn't win more ws titles. They were the best of that era. And, that the lone title is shared with the devastating earthquake, taking a lot of As fans joy away. But so cool to have a real battle of the Bay. ..even though it wasn't competitive. 🙂.. the teams in the 90s and into 2000s that were so good, but couldn't get over the hump. I have a ton of memories at The Oakland Alameda County Colosseum that will always be with me... especially as a kid. Giveaway days Sooo much better. Always looked forward to, bat days, at candlestick and the colesium. Those green bats were very cool! Also, hat days were so much better. 🙂. My last game was a Yankee game, last season. The As beat them the nigh prior to being no hit. I'm live in Sacramento area now, don't drive, so difficult to get to games. If the As do play here next year, I don't know if I'll go...I don't want to support Fisher in any way. I still hold out hope that someone will step up and save the team, convincing Fisher to sell. It happened for the Giants, twice. 1976, Bob Laurie. 1993 Peter McGowan. Of course Laurie was selling team...locals stepped up at midnight it's different with Fisher. Hopeful Vegas falls apart and he has change of heart and sells to a dynamic group that keeps the As in Oakland, and gets stadium built with private funds. I feel terrible for Oakland. They have lost a Hockey team in 75. Not many cared about the Seals, but I did. Raiders, twice. Warriors, but at least in SF. And now the A's. Please, for the fans you dare to say you care about, sell the team! A's fans really deserve a top notch owner, who will invest in community,, facilities, and foremost, the team. The giants fans are very lucky. They do all of that better than any. Especially community involvement, and celebrating the teams past. No organization does it better. A's fans deserve that. What a history the team has to celebrate.

[@robertmccormick335]

Yankee fan here, thank you so much for covering this. Hard to imagine having your favorite team ripped away from you like that. So sorry for your loss Oakland

[@BradyCarlson-b9o]

But John fisher sucks

[@Oldmanlogan103]

As a Phillies fan, this truly sucks, no group of passionate fans should have to go through this all because their owner is money hungry and won’t sell the team to a group who is more worried about the fans and team then money. RIP Oakland

[@GweGwe-lu9ob]

As a Phillies fan that grew up in the bay area I’m a Phillies fan because my first little league team was the Phillies and I will miss the A’s in Oakland I’ve enjoyed just going to go watch baseball and my family is filled with giants fans so every time the Phillies come to town we go to SF but I’ve been to my fair share of A’s games and I enjoy them a lot the tailgates the fun we had in the ballpark

[@jotrishacook6089]

As a Dodgers fan I fully agree. This sucks for the fans and for baseball ⚾

[@shanefromoutin9619]

“The fuck you john fisher”🤣

[@eli827bb]

From a Dodger fan living in the Bay Area my condolences go out to you and all other A’s fans. Y’all deserve better and John Fisher ran you guys into below the ground for his own profit. ☹️

[@averagegalaxygamer4430]

Coming from a Twins fan, man this made me emotional to watch. Oakland has some of the greatest fan in baseball…Oakland fans deserve so much better 💚💛

[@ajgree6]

Reds fan here. Finally visited the Coliseum in July of this year. Really enjoyed it. Yeah it’s rundown and there’s nothing but a bart stop outside but I felt there’s a real comrade there. It’s a good vibe. Great baseball fans there. Fisher gave a huge F you to Oakland just for money. Would be a travesty to happen to any franchise. I feel like Cincy isn’t totally safe either. We’re all subject to whatever crappy decisions FO wants to make. I hope you guys get a team back one day in a stadium someone cares enough about to build up and make great. In solidarity with East Bay. 🤘🏻

[@alexspendlove98]

John Fisher. Hated By All. Hell Is His Afterlife. Even though I was never an A’s fan, my heart goes out to you and I can’t imagine how you’re feeling.

[@garyschwart]

I'm from Buffalo: I made sure I traveled to Oakland to see a game and I'm glad I did.... The stadium is almost identical to the Buffalo bills stadium and leaving the game I felt as if I was leaving the bill stadium after a win. One last time man it was a walk-off win against Seattle and during the late unions and as I walked to the train after the game The fans reminded me of Buffalo fans. The fans were great passionate and truly loved the team I cannot understand how this team is moving it literally baffles my mind

[@drewo6388]

You're the best, Gabe. I'm a Milwaukee Brewers fan from Milwaukee but I think I speak for all of us when I say this past season, and especially this week, we're all Oakland A's fans! Thank you for bringing your love of the A's to all of us!

[@cyrogex1218]

Same as a Brewers fan, shameful what Fisher has done to this franchise

[@tbryant024]

Please do not ever delete your videos! Your channel is going to be a treasure for future generations that never got to experience one of the most passionate and knowledgeable fanbases in entire league. I may not have time to watch a good amount of your videos, but I definitely would like to watch your videos with the young kids one day.

The a's home will always be oakland. SELL THE TEAM

[@Leafs29]

I was born 3 miles from the Coliseum when my dad was stationed at the Navy base, moved away at 8 months but my love for Oakland and The Oakland A’s flows through my blood for whatever reason. Whenever people ask me why the Oakland A’s my response is always “Born, not raised.” I will say my biggest regret in life was not seeing the Oakland A’s in the Coliseum. This year I was able to take my son to the Father’s Day game against the Twins here in Minnesota, my last time ever seeing the Oakland A’s in person. I found your content today, thank goodness for the YT algorithm, wiped tears away for 28 magical minutes, and just finished game 1 (your first trip to T Mobile field). Keep up the great work.

[@WilliamsRacing148D]

Boston Redsox fan here. I'm sorry you have to go through this. I went through this when I was much younger, when the Hartford Whalers relocated to North Carolina. I was much to young to thoroughly understand. Hold your head up high and continue the friendships that you have built with your Oakland A's family. From a Redsox fan, LETS GO OAKLAND!!

[@gregcollins5585]

I was there with my son. We laughed. We cried. We got mad. It was an emotional roller coaster of a day. Much respect to you Gabe.

[@YY-bl1is]

I won't forget. The scenery I saw at that time. The best fans, the best atmosphere they create, the best players, and the best ballpark. The Oakland Coliseum will always remain etched in my heart and in the hearts of Oakland's greatest fans. Thank you, Oakland Coliseum.

[@childish2088]

As a KC Royals fan, this is just made my day very sad, you guys don’t deserve to be treated like trash, very ashamed and disgraceful to the owner. You are one of the greatest Oakland A’s fan to keep the memories alive, always stay humble A’s fans. Go Oakland!!! 💚💚💚

[@ScareBear75]

New subscriber here. My heart goes out to all the true A’s fans. Fisher is a gutless sellout who ripped the hearts out of the fans. I grew up a Browns fan and lived through Art moving the team out of Cleveland. So seeing what you fans are going through hit close to home.

[@gamer_athletics]

Thank you for subscribing! I appreciate the support like I said you have monies how much it means to me truly.

[@ronclark9724]

I feel Oakland's pain, I recall Amarillo spending 38 years in affiliated minor league baseball PURGATORY without a team... Apparently not one of the Oakland A's fans had any EMPATHY towards any of the other relocated team fans, so I won't have any empathy towards Oakland A's fans... Professional sports teams are a BUSINESS, not a cult... The fans do not own the teams...

[@hillkerby]

I feel for you guys. Sad day in sports history. I grew up in LA and grew up going to the Bay Area for Dodgers/Giants games. Only went to the Coliseum twice as a kid, once for an A's game and once for a Raiders game. Made it back this year for Dodgers/A's in August and grateful I got to pay my respects to the stadium and fan base. Y'all don't deserve what happened to you and it hurts me to think that baseball in Oakland is a thing of the past.

[@milkman4eva]

I didn’t realize how much of a Bay Area guy I’ve become, until these last few months. Especially these last few weeks! The A’s leaving the East Bay hurts me like it’s my own childhood team. I grew up North of Boston, remembering when the Red Sox battled those early and mid-2000s A’s teams. I never thought I’d love a team as much as I do the Red Sox. But I’m wrong. I love the A’s now… And obviously, Oakland. I’m hurting just as much 💔 Let me add, seeing homeboy of The Last Divebar crying in his pickup broke me. I met him at my last Coliseum visit in late May. This cuts deep!

[@cinderblock_]

Cardinals fan. Born and raised in St. Louis. Got invested into baseball when David Freese lifted one to center field and won Game 6. I've never been to California, the closest I've been there is when I stopped in Seattle to catch a Mariners game, but I've gone to a lot of ballparks, and I realized something. From Cleveland, to Chicago, to New York, to Denver, baseball is the heartbeat of a city. Baseball can bring hope, memories, and new bonds to anyone who follows it, but removing a city of it's baseball team is equivalent to removing it of its pride and joy. I couldn't imagine what would happen if the Cardinals left St. Louis. I can't begin to imagine how you feel now. This is a sad day for baseball and its fans. The A's don't belong anywhere but in Oakland, California. And I can only hope that John Fisher realizes he'll be losing a lot more than he will gain. Long live the Oakland Athletics.

[@jamesjackson2434]

From a Mariners fan- I am so sorry and disappointed to see how this has all played out. It reminds of the Sonics situation in a number of ways. Countless memories watching our teams face off in Oakland over the years and feels surreal and so wrong that it’s over. You guys deserve way better.

[@stevepeterson3622]

I was there. So many emotions. Mostly sad, obviously, but also proud, elation over the Oakland A's winning their final home game ever, anger that it had to get to that point. I've been going to that stadium as long as I can remember and I'm 57 years old. Thank you Oakland Coliseum and Oakland A's for all the memories that I'll truly never forget.

[@troyhoffman6012]

East Bay native. Grew up going to the coliseum but live in AZ now. I used to sit in the LF bleachers during the Eric Chavez era, still recognize a lot of the fans. I continued bleeding the green and gold until now. I took 12 A’s fans to one of the games in AZ this year and had green and gold hats printed that replaced the white A with text reading “Make Baseball Fun Again”. That has been my normal A’s hat this year. But like you, I donned my fan gear one last time as I watched the game from my friends house(also an A’s fan). I felt numb most of the game. But once Kotsay asked the crowd to chant one more time I lost it. Thanks Gabe for your content, it’s helped me get through the last 2 years. Oakland A’s forever, and fuck John Fisher and MLB.

Are you joking? there is a reason everyone is fleeing Oakland. I'm sad they are leaving Oakland , but it had to happen. It's best for our franchise. These morons crying about John Fisher are a minority here in the East Bay

[@SnowAngel14]

Born and raised Dodger fan here...I started watching your channel after your meeting with Adam the Woo on his channel. I am completely devastated for your team. I knew all about the craziness that was going on but it wasn't until recently that I thought to myself " how would I feel if that was my team?" My heart goes out to Oakland and the A's fans everywhere. Its hard to watch all this happen in real time. Enjoy your final moments with your team, cherish all those memories with your friends, family and fellow fans that were experienced at the Coliseum. All those tail gate parties home viewing parties. I can not imagine how you are feeling. I will be cheering on the A's today and the rest of this weekend. Chin up!! Much love to you and all the Oakland fans! -One Cali Kid To Another

[@Gsmooth10455]

First let me say what a beautiful post you made. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings. Sadly this is the way Many Brooklyn Dodgers fans felt when Walter O'Malley moved the team from Brooklyn to L.A after the 1957 season. I'm from NY and I'm a Mets fan who wasn't born until three years after the Dodgers left so I had absolutely no connection to them whatsoever. But I have spoken to many fans who were alive back then and they too spoke about the sadness and despair of losing their team and how it felt like a funeral in their homes. I imagine that this is how many A's fans are feeling right now.

[@matthewrose2179]

I was there yesterday afternoon. I’ve been a giants fan my whole life but my dad grew up going to the coliseum and took me many times. Seeing all 46,000 yesterday was the greatest baseball experience in my life. The A’s will sadly never be the same

[@CHAPELSKILLS]

I don't know why I didn't go. I went to 13 games this season, the last was Tuesday's game with Texas. I was soaking the place in all season so I didn't feel going to the last game was necessary. But I really missed out. The A's are going to be just fine. And they will play in front of fans for the rest of history in SAC/Vegas. Oakland is truly a terrible place, and there is no possibility of sustaining a MLB team. Thanks for the memories but GOOD RIDDANCE

[@bayareaaviation17]

I’m a die hard Giants fan. I am so absolutely gutted, disappointed, and angry that the A’s have officially ended their time in Oakland. I have zero clue how John Fisher sleeps at night knowing that he has left one of the greatest cities and fanbases on earth. I cannot imagine the pain you and other A’s fans are going through. I really hope one day baseball returns to the East Bay. This didn’t deserve to happen and it certainly didn’t need to one bit. Much love man. Hope you all can find closure one day.

[@gamer_athletics]

Thank you 🙏 it hurts so much, like I lost a family member.

[@economicsjingle]

He sleeps at night because he never had any attachment to Oakland, he just views the team as an investment. He owns other sports teams too. I think he inherited a level of wealth that makes him kind of indifferent to emotions that are rooted in anything other than money.

[@OfficialChris88]

I’m no A’s fan ( Yankees fan ) But this whole situation fucking sucks. No city no state deserves to lose a team no matter the sport. Minor leagues or Major Leagues. Keep staying strong brother. Much love from the East Coast ❤️

Well done!! Being from Baltimore we had an owner who was an alcoholic ahole himself. I share your pain and sorrow. This should not be happening. The Oakland A’s have a great tradition. Def remember vida blue, catfish hunter, Reggie etc. My brother and I were able to recite that early 70’s lineups. Hopefully, in the not too distant future mlb will award Oakland an expansion team. We share your pain. Peace to all of you.

Late to this but going on the 880 is going to be painful, I remember being sad passing by oracle due to the warriors leaving but now knowing that the coliseum is empty is going to be rough. There is crying in baseball and the tears we shed is all because of that man who shall not be named, thank you Oakland for all the memories

I first started watching you when I came across your vlog on the reverse boycott game a year ago. I’m a Mariners fan but I absolutely feel for you and the city of Oakland brother.

I couldn't imagine my team leaving the city. I hope yall guys show up in force in Sacramento to show the owner what could've been. No matter how good the Astros have been in the Altuve era; the A's always fought the Stros hard despite all of the disadvantages that were thrown at them.

as a Dodger fan seeing the game yesterday on my computer, It's really sad to see that owner such as fisher even owns the club, The A's deserve much better than just being relocated to a city where probably no one wants baseball.

From a Twins fan, we are very sorry the owner did this to the fans. Thanks for putting out these videos and hopefully he will sell and keep the team in Oakland. Loved the moneyball era and the playoffs with the Twins and A's, they were fun to watch. All MLB fans support you guys.

[@supermarioharvey2174]

I’ve said this before but as a Twins fan I feel so bad for Oakland fans it feels like it was an eye for an eye situation Minnesota was on the brink of losing our team in 2002 had a Cinderella run in October including facing the A’s who looked unstoppable back then and our franchise was saved and we ended up getting Target Field. For Oakland they never truly recovered with John Fisher after that and now 22 years later they’re doing the one thing we Minnesotans almost went through, the team breaking our hearts.

[@asstcommish]

Proud Las Vegan here and it is SHAMEFUL what has been done to this fanbase. More people were at that game today than will EVER CARE about a John Fisher owned MLB team here. 90 percent of the locals in Vegas don’t even want this and will only root against the A’s IF (and its a big IF) that stadium ever actually gets built. Gabe, thanks for the content this season. Had to be tough. Shame on you, John Fisher!

Vegas had a different perspective on the raiders before they arrived?

[@drlove2036sjpd]

Thank you! I was interviewed by a sportscaster from KTNV, channel 13 on Thursday. Off-camera, he said what you said: Las Vegans want THEIR team, a home grown, expansion team like the Golden Knights, not another stripped team from Oakland from an owner who refuses to do the right thing: Sell the team to a local buyer who will compete the deal at Howard Terminal. Like Mark Davis of the Raiders, "Oakland was my father's dream, but it's not my dream." Fisher (and his lap-dog, Kaval) and MLB are in collusion: they both are greedy and want the glitz of Vegas with no thought (unless superficial) of the fans. May Fisher flop in Sacto and Vegas until the A's come home with a NEW and CARING owner.

[@markrodriquez3777]

Hey brother, I worked at the Coliseum for the last three games as a beer vendor. I just didn't have the time to take pictures or do videos. So I thank you for doing what I wished I could do. You covered all of the emotions of the day. Thanks.

[@superunknown831]

Gabe, thank you for these documented moments from the bottom of my heart. I’ve been watching you for a couple years now. It was a good feeling seeing an honest and transparent person like yourself care so much about a team who was always pushed aside and left for dead. No matter how grim things looked, our team that was designed to fail by ownership would somehow, someway, crawl their way up to the top. True underdog story. That’s why I was always a passionate fan. I made it a routine in my life to tune into your videos and will support the channel no matter what happens. So many memories flooded my mind as I woke up for that last game in Oakland. I Hit the road before the sun was up. I knew the tears were going to come sooner or later. “In my life” by the Beatles started playing on the radio and my gf and I lost it. Stay up champ, we’re all in this fight together. It’s not over till it’s over. And if it does go down, we will stay on the sinking ship like true gentleman. Love yall A’s fans. We deserved so much better

[@gamer_athletics]

Man your comment hit me so much with appreciation. I just wanted to share the truth of what happened here in Oakland. I wanted to defend the fans including myself who would get told "it's your fault you didn't show up". That was never the case. I wanted to fix the narrative and thanks to my friends and many A's & baseball fans across the world we did that. The fight is not over and as long as John Fisher owns the team there's one thing he has never done, and that is never successfully building a stadium. Thank you for your support all season long, it was a hard one. We did indeed deserved better.

Thank you Gabe!! You’ve done so much for all baseball fans with your incredible videos, I’d love to see them become a documentary some day! The raw emotion you show in the videos really shows how horrible this situation is for all fans. Although I am a Rays fan, I’ve been thinking more about Oakland for much of this season. A’s fans are truly among the best in all of sports. I went to the Coliseum for the Rays series last year, including the Reverse Boycott. I had absolutely 0 negative interactions from any A’s fans and despite wearing different uniforms, we were all able to unite and take a stand against this horrible move and quite a few even thanked me for the support. I’ve been to many different ballparks and have yet to come across another fanbase so passionate yet so respectful to visiting fans. What is transpiring is truly awful for all baseball fans and I’m completely heartbroken for you and all the A’s fans out there. This is none of your faults and I’ll never forgive Manfred, Fisher, Kaval, and the other owners for allowing this to happen. Stay strong and I hope you continue your passion of sports videos, whether it be Roots, Soul, Ballers, Giants, or other random MLB games. I’ll I’ll miss my virtual Coliseum visits from the East Coast through your videos but I’ll be wearing my SELL shirt proudly to Fenway Park Sunday for the Rays game! FJF!

You get a sub from a fellow A's fan from the 70's! I spent my childhood in the bleachers before Mt. Davis. When it was cheaper to go to an A's game than going to a movie theater if you can believe that! $3 was the price of admission in the 80's! I no longer live in the Bay and haven't been to a game in years, but my son was there. Thank you for documenting your experience for those who could not attend. ⚾⚾⚾💛💚💛💚

It’s honestly so crazy to hear prices for those games compared to now. I only wish I could’ve been there for the good days. Thank you for the sub

Caught a HR ball with my dad in the stands with me. Will never forget the look on his face when I came up with he ball. Ramon Hernandez bottom of the 5th against Seattle back in 2000..I was 15 years old. RIP Pops

[@apolloceo8152]

as a Padres fan, this was a beautiful tribute. My condolences.

[@formertstv1908]

My heart goes out to you and all the Oakland fans.

[@gamer_athletics]

Thank you man ❤️

[@benf8578]

What an amazing video… my favorite team is the Pittsburgh Pirates and when my favorite player ever, Jason Kendall, was traded to the A’s I instantly rooted for you all. I never could stop after that. Sorry Oakland…. Sorry A’s fans…. Truly feel for you.

[@gamer_athletics]

Thank you for your kinds words 🫂⚾️

[@andysanchez5857]

From a padres fan this sucks and sad even heartbroken becuase it brings me memories when the chargers left Sandiego to LA and it hurts till this day aslo I really enjoyed playing against the Oakland A’s and especially the raiders everytime we where in the black hole as the visiting team the fan base was rough and even scary in my opinion and thats what I called real fans every time we got our butt kicks by the raiders that’s one of the memories I’m going to missed a lot may god bless the fan base of Oakland thank you for the memories and may god bless you Gabe

[@AWB-Official-u1b]

End of an era officially. LET'S GO OAKLAND coming from a Red Sox fan!

[@gamer_athletics]

Thank you!

[@MessOfThings]

Thank you for everything Gabe.

[@gamer_athletics]

I’m gonna miss seeing you at the Oakland Coliseum with the Kazoo

[@paulamcdonald5446]

What a treasure, thank you Gabe. You captured everything so perfectly, I just don’t know how you do it. Thank God for You Tube. I’m just so thankful we got to meet you and follow you/LDB’s lead through this season. You matter so much. Please take your time with all of this- I know you have a lot of good people around you but please lean on them and us, don’t let the grief ravage your heart.

[@mrfaccilonga629]

It’s ok, I understand the sadness that ur going through, it’s ok to show emotions

[@turboduran2531]

Nice picture of your overrated quarterback😂

[@michaelgriffith4110]

God this breaks my heart for you man!! Just took one hero to make this all not happen. The pain will go away but them memories will be forever gabe! God bless man

[@marcuscheng2507]

I’m so glad you got to see a win on Oakland’s last home game ever! Gonna miss the team! 💛💚

[@ScottSportsRoustabout]

From Sydney Australia, My heart goes out to All the A's fans, players & employees, John Fisher & the MLB have a lot to answer for, How an owner can bring the game into disrepute by doing this to a team and its fans is unforgiveable.

[@MLWBwiffleball-ye1de]

Even though I’m a Rangers fan, I’ll be wearing an Oakland A’s hat on Sunday. The say goodbye to the athletics.

[@MLWBwiffleball-ye1de]

Don’t call me a bandwagon, I’m just gonna miss the Oakland A’s playing baseball in Oakland, you’re my favorite Oakland A’s fans ever, and John Fisher should be banned from the MLB!

[@gamer_athletics]

@@MLWBwiffleball-ye1de you're not bandwagon, you showed your support. I thank you for that

[@MLWBwiffleball-ye1de]

@@gamer_athletics You’re welcome😢

[@loganswartz9610]

As a Cardinals fan this is truly tragic to see such a passionate fan base with SO SO MUCH history lose their team. Truly heartbreaking. I hope baseball finds its way to Oakland agin some day.

[@MarkEdwardMarkCanioI]

Grew up in the Oakland will always be a fan of our A's, Giants Niners and Raiders as well as GSW Dubs❤😂! 4LIFE BOYEEE

[@abnushagnasty805]

Appreciate you making a video about this. The “🖕John fisher” at the end captures what I’ve been feeling over the past 20 years. Seeing great players be developed only to see them leave by trade or free agency. And then seeing cycle after cycle of this for so long. The last day of the Oakland A’s was a culmination of all that disappointment balled up into one. I couldn’t even bring myself to watch the whole video because it was so sad for me. So again…..thank you for doing what I couldn’t do. 💚💛💔

[@alexmurphy8837]

I had the same feelings as a Rays fan over the past few years, maybe 5-10 years at this point. The news we got this summer, I still don't know if it will happen, but just know this, all of us Rays fans, we know the struggles, we know the pain, and we're here for all of you guys. It's a disgusting thing that happened all thanks to the son of two people who own a D-level clothing brand. Stay strong through this and let's hope that somehow, some way, that MLB will return to Oakland soon

[@Gsmooth10455]

Met fan here who remembers crying as a 13 year old when you guys beat us in the '73 World Series. I visited your park twice. First in 2004 and then again in 2022 when I went to see my Mets play. I can honestly say that I am deeply saddened by your loss. I can't imagine how you guys feel and feel just as upset at how that scoundrel John Fisher let you guys down.

[@jimjohnson1515]

As a White Sox fan who’s scared of this same situation Im truly sorry for you

[@gamer_athletics]

@@jimjohnson1515 start up a group and stand up for yourselves. This can happen to anyone’s team no team is a exception

[@williamstokes3078]

Mets fan here and a new subscriber, thanks so much for your videos and letting us baseball fans in on what’s been a devastating time for you A’s fans. You guys don’t deserve what’s happened and the failure is with Fisher and Manfred alone. So sorry for your loss! Let’s go Oakland! Sell the team!

[@thomasc4258]

As a Giants fan I’m proud to say my first baseball game was at an A’s game at the Oakland colosseum. I value your videos so much being from a fans perspective. Your videos about A’s fandom are invaluable and incapaulate the essence of what it means to be an Oakland A’s fan. Thank you for all of your videos Gabe 🙏

[@MetalD1111]

As a tigers fan I know had our playoff games against each other but nothing but respect to you athletics fans the passion you guys have is awesome I remember watching Verlander back in 2012 and 2013 and how guys tried to get him distracted and stuff you fans of Oakland just awesome respect to you fans I loved the competition ❤ memories forever that’s for sure sorry you guys have your team move away I was looking forward to more games against your team

[@awong2668]

The editing is well done. I'm sorry Gabe, I hope it's not one last time in Oakland. I don't believe people when they say that Oakland will never have a team again. Always have hope until the very very end! FJF

[@t904med]

I hear ya my man. I went to my first A's game July 8, 1978. I had season tickets for 15 years been there all those years both good and bad. What ownership has done to this organization and what they have done to the fans is just disgusting. Fisher can go screw himself for what he has done to all of us, and for what he's done to Oakland. Enjoy the last 3 OAKLAND A's game!

[@lilbrother45]

Just found your videos man. Great video. Let me tell you, I’m a 43 year Oakland A’s fan. My entire family are Giants fans and for some reason, when me and my cousin were 8 my grandpa took us to an Oakland A’s game. My first baseball game ever. Been hooked ever since. I was born in Sacramento but we made tons of trips to Oakland. Saw so many huge games at the coliseum. Originally I was juiced that the A’s were coming here, until my girl bought tickets to the A’s /Rangers on Tuesday night. That was the first game I’ve been to in at least 5 years because I had sworn that I would never give this POS owner another cent of my hard earned money. Pulling up to a full parking lot of partying A’s fans felt so different. Going into the stadium and feeling the melancholy atmosphere was just intense. Seeing fans stick around after the game winning hit just so they could take in the sights and sounds of the coliseum one more time, that hit me hard. As we were Walking out we saw an old couple both dressed in their A’s gear hugging and crying. It broke my heart. The A’s don’t belong in Sacramento. I will not be attending any games there. It isn’t right what’s happening and I won’t be a part of it. F u JF. F you for what you’ve done to this franchise.

[@DavidGenz]

Through watching the different broadcasts and fan made videos, it made me sad. But your video here hit a lot harder because of the passion shown from you and the other fans. I never got to go to the Coliseum, but from the outside, thank you for changing baseball.

[@justindinger6173]

I want to say thanks to you for documenting this season. I've been watching for a while now and I got a chance to say "hi" to you a couple of weeks ago during the Mariners series. I have no words to offer, other than I'm sorry.

[@thetrainwxgeek]

I am fortunate to have gone to an A’s game this summer with my dad. I may not be an A’s fan as I’m a white Sox fan but I am happy to have gone to be a part of the A’s fandom for a day. I am so sorry you guys have gone through this. Heart goes out to all of you

[@mariehernandez7656]

Beautiful video it brought on so many emotions. Thank you for taking me there in the moment when I couldn’t be there to experience it for myself. I’m so heartbroken my heart is shattered in a million pieces. I’m so proud of you and I’ll be here and hope you continue your videos no matter what it may be. I love you Gabe!

[@gamer_athletics]

I love you too mom❤️

[@vvarietyshow]

Appreciate you bro and so thankful to get to know you thru all this. I'm proud of what you've done. Our sweet baby boy.

[@alscousin8936]

Its takes so many people within an organization to make it happen. It takes countless fans to support it, year after year after year. But it only takes one man, ONE MAN to rip it all away. It's ironic, it's maddening, it's that stomach punch of sadness. RIP Oakland A's, RIP Oakland Alameda County Coliseum. You both shall be missed.

[@TacticalHoodrat]

As a dodgers fan and a baseball fan, I’m truly sorry you guys have to go through this 🤍💙💚💛
