Darth Raider, arguably one of the most familiar fans at the McAfee Coliseum on game day, will be blogging from the “Dark Side” end zone and beyond exclusively for Insidebayarea.com. You’ve seen him on FSN, ESPN, CBS, NBC and ABC. You’ve seen him at the Super Bowl, now Darth Raider will give you a true insider perspective from a fan on the street and close to the turf.

Since ‘95, The Lord of the Sith has been to EVERY single home game (pre season/regular) in Oakland and doesn’t intend on missing one anytime soon. He’s also in the Pro Football Hall of Fame; listed in gold as the 2002 Oakland Raiders fan of the year.

He’s participated in countless news segments and articles, studies Raider Football daily, re-watches games weekly and is even a playable character in the video game “Gauntlet Dark Legacy”.

He’s also experienced a few away games (New York, San Diego, etc.) and speaks more louder than you in the northern end zone, conveniently named “The Dark Side”… that is, without his mask on.

May the force be with us…
