Fed\u002Dup fans in Oakland have hatched an unusual plan to protest the Athletics\u0027 despised ownership group: They\u0027re buying tickets.
Among those planning to attend are the drummers in the right-field bleachers who used to echo their support for the franchise that’s been in the Bay Area since 1968.
Naomi Arnst, a fan for 51 years, purchased a pair of tickets Monday for $144 each, including service charges, and spent another $147.50 on parking. The seats in section 110 are close to where she used to sit with corporate tickets. It’s all worth the expense to be there Tuesday, and she notes, “With parking it cost as much as an A-list Broadway show.”A’s manager Mark Kotsay understands how much these passionate fans want their team to stay and applauds them for expressing themselves.
“I’ve been an A’s fan since the early 2000s. He and Mark Ellis made me fall in love with the A’s. I’m not at all surprised how big the Reverse Boycott has become and how much traction it’s getting nationally,” she said. “Never, ever underestimate A’s fans. We are an incredibly loyal and passionate group. We will never give up and we will fight to the end to keep our team in Oakland.”
