Oracle Arena and O.co Coliseum are right next to each other in Oakland.

Like, uncomfortably close to each other.

Well, Marlins Man was in attendance at Oracle Arena for Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night… and was also in attendance at O.co Coliseum for the the Oakland Athletics’ game against the Texas Rangers.

Game 5 was a 6 PM PT start, while the A’s game was a 7 PM PT start. Marlins Man attended the A’s game two separate times on this night, without missing any of Game 5. Even though the venues are right next to each other, it’s pretty crazy he was able to accomplish this.

How’d he do it?

  • He left Game 5 during halftime
  • Went to watch an inning of the A’s game
  • Returned to Game 5 for the second half
  • Went back to the A’s game after Game 5 ended

 

 

He even got Steph Curry’s attention:

And hung out with Tyga:

Quite an amazing sports night.
