ANAHEIM–The new Levis Stadium in Santa Clara bodes well for South Bay the reason being they are already a major league county with the San Jose Sharks who was founded in San Jose and they’ve played in San Jose since 1993. Now the South Bay has the San Francisco 49ers and my point on all this, this is all good.
You can publicize this, they should tell the world that the San Francisco 49ers have a new stadium a state of the art stadium a beautiful park a $1 billion park in Santa Clara. Why do I say this? For years now the media and everybody have concentrated on the story that the Oakland A’s are moving to San Jose. San Jose wants to be a Major League city.
Well the A’s don’t look like their going to be moving to San Jose, and they signed a lease in Oakland and Alameda County Supervisors voted on Tuesday to approve the lease agreement keeping the A’s at the Oakland Coliseum until 2024. The lease was approved by the Oakland City Council last week and needed approval by the County supervisors Tuesday.
The 49ers the most lucurative franchise and a team that has won more Super Bowls than any other NFL team are going to be playing in Santa Clara. The San Francisco 49ers are going to be playing in Santa Clara, so this is a huge benefit for the South Bay. This is the most lucrative sports league in America which is the National Football Leauge.
The 49ers are most top of the line franchise with the New York Giants, Dallas Cowboys, and the Green Bay Packers and those types of teams. This is good for the South Bay and the 49ers of San Francisco are not going to be playing in San Francisco they’re going to be playing in the South Bay. This is a good story, I agree 1000 per cent that the South Bay can boast that they can tell the whole world that they have the 49ers San Jose-Santa Clara is the largest city and county in the Bay Area with over one million people.
The past rages of stadiums used to be San Jose Arena when it was first built in 1993, then there was AT&T Park in San Francisco and now the newest rage is Levis Stadium. The Bay Area is very trendy and Levis Stadium is now the place to be. There was a time that Oracle Arena when the Warriors played there was the place to be when the team first move there in 1971 after moving from the Cow Palace in Daly City.
There were big stars in attendance and there were celebrities showing up there in attendance and the Warriors would play the Lakers with Kareem Abdul Jabbar. I also remember Nate Thurmond on the Warriors and all those guys. So at one time Oracle Arena was trendy, now the 49ers are going to be trendy with their new Stadium in Santa Clara.
