It’s one of the NFL’s great mysteries — how did the Raiders manage to pocket four years’ worth of parking revenue without paying the Oakland Coliseum Board hardly anything? Don’t you hate it when Mark Davis tries to skip town owing just short of a million bucks in parking tickets?
Now the Board is saying that it all has to be paid back before the Raiders can play at the Coliseum (known as the O.co Coliseum from 2011–2016) again. The Raiders have not officially responded, but do they have a choice? The team has no other home for the next three seasons — which is how long it will take for their new, $1.
