McAfee Coliseum Information:
McAfee Coliseum is located in Oakland, California, and is one of the only stadiums in the country that is used for both professional baseball and football games. This stadium has been hosting games 1966, and it does not appear that this is going to change anytime in the near future. Although McAfee Coliseum is a bit long in the tooth, it still has a lot to offer fans and players.
There are two primary tenants that currently call McAfee Coliseum home. They include the Oakland Athletics of the MLB, and the Oakland Raiders of the NFL. The capacity of this stadium is 34,077 for baseball games, and 63,026 for football games. The reason for this large discrepancy is due to the fact that the entire third deck is always closed for baseball games.
Although the formal name of this venue is McAfee Coliseum, a lot of the locals and fans refer to it as nothing more than "The Coliseum." Throughout the years this venue has hosted many great events, and has seen hundreds of great players come through. This holds true with both baseball and football players.
There have been talks about a new stadium being built for these teams, but every time this comes up the deal seems to fall through. So until the teams and the area can agree on something, everybody will have to settle for McAfee Coliseum. And when it comes down to it this is not all that bad!
