The Oakland Raiders: The NFL’s Most Transcendent Franchise

On November 21st, 2015, over 76,000 fans gathered in Mexico City to watch the Oakland Raiders 27-20 victory over the Houston Texans. Just the second NFL contest to take place in the country, the game meant more to the tens-of-thousands of Hispanics in attendance.

Houston fans represented in droves, serving as a pseudo-home team due to geographical proximity. But for Hispanic Raiders fans, the Silver and Black represents more than just a fanbase.

Raider Nation — a perfect conundrum of all races and ethnicities, united for the sake of the Silver and Black. The fanbase serves as a gathering place for the poor and the rich, white, black, yellow or brown.
