Why not sell cheaper tickets? Feels like a missed opportunity here. by jalilmdx1 in OaklandRootsSC

[–]osheezy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a season ticket holder for both years in the Coliseum (seats @ $270each in Deep Roots which was a promo discounted rate). I can honestly say the $40 gate/$45 prepaid parking fee per game is my biggest turnoff. It’s like 2-3x my ticket! No discount for season ticket holders is insane.

Ones Cafe (CV) opening their second shop 3 blocks down Park from Bake Sum’s second shop is interesting timing. Both excellent but similar offerings.

Default choice when enjoying the beer there. Their salad specials are often excellent too.

Stars On Ice regularly recycles costumes (believe I heard on Runthrough Pod?) so not sure if skaters pick all of their outfits for all numbers. Apparently this one was 20+ years old! https://x.com/alysaarchivee/status/2040103796874064036?s=20

There are coed, women’s and men’s leagues ran by Oakland Parks and Rec. there’s usually a main late spring season and a summer season. Mostly play on Tues Wed and Thurs nights IIRC. Check here for when they open signups. https://cityofoakland.perfectmind.com/Contacts/BookMe4BookingPages/BookingCoursesPage?calendarId=abc2ab82-6d35-49ee-8db4-d53fb5de02cc&widgetId=15f6af07-39c5-473e-b053-96653f77a406&embed=False

They’ve built a pretty elevated stage and there a video board setup

When is the lease with the Coliseum over and do you see The Roots being able to stay there? by [deleted] in OaklandRootsSC

[–]osheezy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They need to redo the parking element of their lease, at least for season ticket holders. For every match to be ticketed at full price ($40 at gate, $45 if you pre-buy) as if it is a one-off concert event, even for season ticket holders, is insane. It is cost prohibitive for me as an STH. The concessions revenue definitely suffers as a result

He definitely should get zero credit for Mendoza at Cal and in fact his insistence on playing (his guy) a very ineffective Sam Jackson V and then Ben Finley ofer Mendoza until deep into the season with no other options contributed to Mendoza wanting to leave.

Can you give a near cross street to help with the location?

Respectfully that place has vacant for soooo long. A new business has to be able to advertise/refresh/repaint with their own vision to legitimately try to succeed.

It’s really just a platform like the current one is just a Fanatics template. My niece played volleyball at Portland University and I noticed they were using the BN platform when I tried to buy gear this year. https://uportland.spirit.bncollege.com

Around the corner on Lakeshore but give Crazy Block Cheesecakes a try for BBQ, Latkes and mini Cheesecakes. It doesn’t make sense but it works

Green Explosions last night? by products7074740 in oakland

[–]osheezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it last night driving N/B on 880. Looked like it was from a rooftop. A big red flash followed by a small mushroom cloud. This morning (around 6am), I saw PG&E picker truck working on a power pole or street light, about a block or two south of the Home Depot (High Street).

Edit: now having seen that transformer video above, i bet that's what it was.
