Bay Area Panthers and San Diego StrikeForce(I think) in the IFL is all we got
Bay Area Panthers were supposed to be the Oakland Panthers(Marshawn Lynch is an owner) and they were gonna play at the arena next to the Coliseum
I was so frickin excited to get football back in Oakland that i was campaigning every day on social media to get everyone i knew to buy season ticket packages, I was probably doing more to sell tickets than anybody working for the team was because I wanted it to succeed so bad
I was anxiously counting down the days til March 14, 2020 which was the first game of the season, got together with a bunch of old Raiders fans through social media and we had a huge tailgate party planned to welcome football back to Oakland
And then Covid happened and the season was cancelled two days before week 1 and the Oakland Panthers never played one single game in Oakland...
Damn!! Well, good on you for that Pete! Hopefully they get something together for the next season!
