Raiders Sell Out, on Local TV

The Raiders have sold out the Coliseum for Saturday’s season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs, lifting the local television blackout for the 1 p.m. game.

In all, 67,642 tickets were sold. Last season, capacity at the Coliseum for Raider games was 67,800. But there are fewer seats available this year because of the additional space needed for the temporary press box, built after the January earthquake damaged the main press section.

This is the first Raider home sellout this season. The club sold out three times last year, for the Kansas City game, the regular-season finale against the Denver Broncos and the only home playoff game, also against Denver.
