You mean the NFL could schedule our first home game 3 weeks into the season? Possible but not likely. The NFL seems to like hosing us through the schedule.

If they did schedule our first home game a couple of weeks into the season, it would be a surprising kindness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as the stadium is ready by the season opener, it will be fine. i could be wrong here, but I thought the deal they made with Oakland for this year was that, in the case of a delay with the vegas stadium the Raiders would play 2020 in Oakland as well.

Yeah, I read that. But there is no need to use that option IF the stadium can be ready by week 1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Away, away, Mexico City home game, away, bye, London home game, away, San Diego home game to celebrate the whatever, Los Angeles home game for remembering the LA Raiders, away, Oakland home game to remember...get the picture. LOL Maybe a 2nd London game and they start printing London Raiders tshirts and the next thing you know some other teams colors are on the Vegas stadium and Marks pulls his hair out realizing it was a grand plan of the NFL to get Al rolling in his grave...

agarcia34 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Raiders also have to worry about the two preseason games. Apparently the Raiders will be putting out a report about the roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are never going back to Oakland. Never. I read there isn't an option to go back and there shouldn't be. Worst case we would have to use a college stadium or another venue for the time being.

SBXISBXVSBXVIII Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I have no doubt it'll be finished. The contractor would probably get fined for not completing the stadium on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there is the 'definition' of "finished" Where maybe its usable with minor number of crews in there while an event is going on. Construction contracts wording is very very playable...

S&B Bleeder Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 On 1/11/2020 at 4:39 PM, agarcia34 said: Was reading how the PSL sales have almost doubled what they expected. With that extra money they have added some extra features like a better internet connection. If anyone has ever been to a game in Oakland knows getting a signal from ur cell phone provider was a very hard thing to do. Also PSLs are the biggest scam tbh All we get due to the increased PSL sales is better internet? Regarding the biggest scam, are you referring to scammers selling PSL's or just that the Raiders are charging A LOT. After reading your post I researched sales. I initially read they intended to sell $500M in PSL's. Today they said only $250M were to be sold but sales are so robust they were at an additional $220M in sales and probably more by now.

The initial projected sales in PSL's was 250 Million. On January 11th when a report came out it said it overexcited sales by 228 million. The better-expected sales allowed them to give a better internet connection, suits, and other things. I think the whole PSL thing, in general, is a scam. Your paying money to have first dibs on purchasing season tickets for those seats. If you don't buy season tickets for a season you lose all that money you paid for that PSL unless you sell your PSL.
