Frustrated fans of the Oakland Athletics have hatched an unusual plan to protest the club's despised ownership group.
Organizers are calling on A's supporters to stage a "Reverse Boycott" at the Coliseum on Tuesday. They plan to give away T-shirts to the first 7,000 fans to arrive and are hoping to make a statement with the biggest, most spirited crowd of the year when the A's host the Tampa Bay Rays.
The goal is a sellout for a team with dismal attendance all season that has regularly been topped by Triple-A franchises.
The bright green T-shirts made by local company Oaklandish read "SELL" -- a message for owner John Fisher to give up the team to someone who might keep it here.
Nevada lawmakers, meanwhile, are discussing the A's proposed financing plan to build a new ballpark in Las Vegas.
