The team, tentatively to be called the Athletics at Fremont - at one time it had been the Silicon Valley Athletics at Fremont - would play in a classic ballpark with plenty of bricks reminiscent of Boston's Fenway Park or AT&T Park in San Francisco, said Keith Wolff, the A's co-owner.

The part about people being able to watch the game for free underneath the elevated seats is pretty cool though.

You know what's great? Gentrifying sports out of touch with the common man in every way possible. Nothing warms my heart more than hearing about plans to relocate every team on the planet to Snobville and jack up ticket prices a little further.

yeah, Anacardo, in general I agree, but Fremont is a long way from snobville.

On the other hand, maybe the owners will increase the allowed payroll. They would be a pretty good team if they were allowed to spend more money.
