The big news of this week was the Golden Knights winning the Stanley Cup championship and having an epic parade to celebrate with more than 100K fans in attendance. With an amazing drone show and huge support from the fans, this was a season to remember. Will the A's get the same support now that their stadium financing bill is passed?
