Will moving to a toilet-shaped arena make the Warriors No. 1?

Share

Any fan of any team hopes their team is No. 1 in any given year.

But that will be particularly true for fans of the Golden State Warriors in a few years.

Starting in 2018, it would be really unfortunate if the Warriors were No. 2 ... because they will be playing in a building shaped like a toilet.

Check out these concept designs for San Francisco's new 12-acre sports and entertainment center:

Obviously, folks have been having a lot of fun with the design at the Warriors' expense. But chances are, the finished product will likely look much more like a sports arena than a potty. Remember these design drawings are from a bird's-eye view, and it's not like fans will be parachuting in for Warriors games.

And even if the unfortunate resemblance remains in 2018, it's likely not going to dampen the spirits of an organization thrilled to move across the bay from Oakland.

"It's going be fantastic," Warriors General Manager Bob Myers told SFGate. "It's going to be so good for this organization, this community, and selfishly, for me. Sitting in this seat, and trying to get players to San Francisco, it's a different ballgame."
