Whats happened to our homefield advantage?

How come our stadium has become more friendly to oppossing fans, last year I saw charger fans, bears fans loud enough to make noise.
With the bay area changing, I hope theres not a lot of patriot fans with the influx of boston people in the area.

Whats going on?

you got a point . but homefield advantage is being home and ur team does give the other team alot of ShT and make noise. so in that case we do, but at the same token we can only have Home F advantage is by having a good team. we need to me better than eaually as good or close to being as good as the other team on order for homefield advantage to kick in. i mean if we suck and have NOOO Direction then there is no such thing as any Advantage. you dig? descent thread tho bro, dont know why there wasn't much in a way of response.

Peace.... . ... .... ......

The Raiders often have trouble selling out their home games, which always leaves the possibility that the road teams fans will show up. Until such time that the Raiders consistently sell out their games, you will continue to see the same thing.

My auto mechanic is a diehard Giants fan and likes to go on road trips every now and then. He loves telling me that his trip to Oakland was the worst that he has experienced - if that makes you feel any better.

I agree BdogPrimusSucks times are hard and the price of gas is a mfer. If fans are going to fork over their hard earned cash they want to see a winning team. When we start to win we will start selling games out.

I am worried about the authors meaning in this thread? Are you saying that we should be beating and kicking other teams fans just for showing up at our stadium? We are Raiders fans, not hoodlum gangstar wanna bes that wear the silver n black. Other fans know that if they come here to not talk crap or else they risk the wrath of the Raiders fans.

But as for other teams fans showing up.. hell Pittsburg took over half the stadium 2 years ago and we ended up winning that game, and our fans where louder than theres.

One thing that upsets me about our fans is that they cheer loud when we are on O.. thats the time to be silent. Anyways we still are one of the loudest fan bases and their is a home field advantage when the Raiders are at home. The tickets are affordable, but like most until the winning ways come back alot of people are not going to shell out money for tickets until that happens.

Many fans go to the games regardless and back the team win, or lose. Since the Raiders have taken over ticket sales we have sold out more games. Now that we drafted McFadden...we will most likely sell out every regular season game this year, and hopefully the following years.
