    What if the Oakland A's pack their bags for Las Vegas? Join us as we unravel the complex reality of the move that has stirred the hearts of fans and the Bay Area alike. In this episode of the Dad Hat Chronicles, I, Ed, am joined by my brother Edgardo and co-host Val, aka Stadium Food Girl, to navigate the winding path of the A's location saga. From reminiscing about our childhood in Puerto Rico and the team's legendary 80s players to exploring the highs and lows of their current situation, we share our personal connections and insights on what this move might mean for the franchise and its devoted followers.

    As the A's contemplate a new chapter in Las Vegas, we unpack the emotions and business considerations tied to this seismic shift. Edgardo, a lifelong fan, provides a unique perspective on the team's rich history and the bittersweet feelings accompanying the potential relocation. We weigh the allure of modern stadiums and vibrant sports culture against the loss of long-held traditions in Oakland. With Oakland's community hanging in the balance, we reflect on how the city's past engagements—or lack thereof—might have influenced this trajectory and what it means for fan loyalty.

    This episode isn't just about baseball; it's about the heart and soul of sports fandom and the complex dance between loyalty, business, and community. With insights into fan protests and the impact on Oakland's identity, we explore whether the A's should retain their name and colors if they move. We also speculate on the seeds of excitement sprouting in Las Vegas, complete with stadium plans and fan events, and consider the possibility of the A's legacy living on in Oakland through future expansion. Join us for a heartfelt discussion that keeps hope alive while honoring the past and embracing what lies ahead.
