LAS VEGAS — A stadium financing expert says the Oakland Athletics’ planned Las Vegas ballpark has all the ingredients to be a success.
Planned for to be built on at least 9 acres of land at the site of the Tropicana, the A’s would rely on a healthy mix of local residents and tourists to fill the seats of the Strip ballpark.
If the A’s model their plan after the NFL’s Raiders and NHL’s Golden Knights, they should have no problem filling the seats on an annual basis, according to Alan Hoffman, partner at Winston and Strawn.
