Many employees who work at the Coliseum are left wondering where their paychecks will come from after this final season of the A's in Oakland.
OAKLAND -- While the news of the A's leaving Oakland after this season hit fans hard, it is hitting the pocketbooks of stadium workers even harder. On game day, it's not just fans who fill the Coliseum. Workers from ushers to concession stand servers are there to make the game day experience enjoyable.'They come and see the A's but our service makes a lot of people come back,' hospitality worker Tony Evans said.
He feels betrayed and abandoned with the A's coming move to Sacramento.'What more can we say,' Evans said. 'It's like John Fisher is like 'Some of you guys have been loyal to the A's for years and years. I just got in and bought it and I don't care about you guys.' That's basically what he's telling us.
