"Drake's Brewing Pulls Sponsorship, but Oakland Fans Fest 2024 Still a Go"
More than 10,000 fans gathered at Jack London Square for Fans Fest, a fan-run event celebrating the Oakland A's and other local teams, with several former A's players in attendance. The event showcased memorabilia, live music, and food, while also serving as a platform for fans and Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao to voice their support for keeping the A's in Oakland and opposing the team's potential move to Las Vegas. The event also saw controversy surrounding a sponsor's last-minute withdrawal and support for the political action group Schools Over Stadiums.
