  • Allegiant Stadium Makes a Bold Statement for the Raiders Th
    Sports Business Journal November 2, 2020 Karn Dhingra High Rollers: Allegiant Stadium makes a bold statement for the Raiders Throughout the Raiders’ 60-year history, the franchise never had its own home. Whether at Oakland Coliseum or Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the Raiders were always tenants. Allegiant Stadium is the Raiders’ first home they can truly call their own, and it was created in the team’s new Las Vegas image, appearing as a gleaming black and silver alien spacecraft on the south end of the Vegas Strip. The story of the Raiders’ $1.98 billion, 65,000-seat home started when the Chargers threw their lot in with the Rams’ move to Los Angeles and NFL owners approved Stan Kroenke’s SoFi Stadium and its mixed-used development in Inglewood, Calif. “In 2014-2015, we were invited to participate in a design competition for a new NFL stadium in Los Angeles in Carson, Calif., which was hosted by the San Diego Chargers,” said Manica architect Keith Robinson, who led the design team for Allegiant Stadium. “As part of their design critique [the Chargers] said we needed to develop a building that could accommodate two teams; it wasn’t clear if that was another NFL franchise or a college team.” Shortly afterward, Manica was informed it had won the competition and was asked to render out the proposed stadium and change the seat colors to black and silver. “And meet us in Alameda because the Raiders and the Chargers are going to pursue their relocation to Los Angeles jointly,” Robinson added.
