I grew up in Nor Cal, and enjoyed all the old-school A's teams. I still miss T Long.

I'm now one of the many transplants in Phoenix, AZ. Sadly, there are not many A's fans here. Hilarity does not ensue.

a fan of

Oakland Athletics Major League Baseball Team

Phoenix Suns National Basketball Association Team

San Francisco 49ers National Football League Team

UCLA Bruins NCAA Men's Football Division 1A Team
