For 47 years, the Golden State Warriors called Oracle Arena home. Now, they’re saying goodbye.
On Thursday night, win or lose, the team will play its final game in the historic stadium.
This is the place, this hulk of a building just off Interstate 880 in Oakland, that wrapped its arms around this storied team and nurtured its epic rise.
This is the place where fans were so loyal and so loud — even during the Warriors’ worst seasons — that Oracle Arena became known as “Roaracle” Arena.
This is where the Warriors were once the most losing team in the NBA — and where, over the past five years, they became champions, over and over.
This is the place where Stephen Curry enthralled fans with his epic three-pointers and blossomed to a two-time MVP.
The Warriors will be moving to San Francisco, to the billion-dollar Chase Center that will have all the restaurants and retail that Oracle Arena never had.
To many local fans, when the Warriors make their move to the city, they’ll be leaving their hearts in Oakland.
And they can’t help but wonder, will the magic cross the bay?
Goodbye, Oracle.
