What did we learn at FanFest? We learned that there are only 3 viable options for a new stadium and that even though all 3 are not viable for different reasons the A’s still intend to open a stadium in one of those places by 2023. We learned that despite having a classically Hispanic last name, Emilio Pagan looks and talks like he hails strictly from the island of Carolina. We learned that Billy Beane is incredibly charming and entertaining while saying virtually nothing, but we already knew that. And we learned that excitement and optimism is high as a team predicted to finish low in the division intends to “surprise people”.
