Thousands of Athletics fans gathered in the Coliseum\'s south parking lot before Thursday night\'s Opening Day game against the Cleveland Guardians to try out a new way of displaying their displeasure with the team\'s ownership: showing up but staying away.
In what might be the beginning of the team\'s final season in Oakland, fans waved hundreds of \"SELL\" flags, ate free tacos and listened to live music. What most of them didn\'t do was enter the stadium to watch the game, choosing to continue the party through the night by watching the game on a blowup projection screen. The announced crowd for the game -- 13,522.
