Oakland Athletics Struggle with Record-Low Attendance

As the team prepares for its move to Las Vegas, attendance figures plummet, trailing behind hundreds of lesser-known sports teams.

  • The Oakland A's average attendance of approximately 6,400 is lower than 553 other U.S. sports teams, including minor league and college teams.
  • Despite being a major league team, the A's are outdrawn by teams in less popular sports and lower divisions, highlighting a significant fan disinterest.
  • The team's planned relocation to Las Vegas by 2028 follows years of uncertainty and declining support in Oakland.
  • The Athletics' current performance on the field shows moderate success, but it does little to boost fan attendance.
  • The franchise faces a major challenge in rebuilding its fan base ahead of the impending move to a new city.
