<P> The Oakland Raiders relocation to Las Vegas was a successful effort by the owner of the Oakland Raiders (Mark Davis) to relocate the American football club from its current and longtime home of Oakland, California to Las Vegas, Nevada . The team is scheduled to begin play as the Las Vegas Raiders for the 2020 National Football League (NFL) season (although a move to Las Vegas could happen as soon as 2019 with Sam Boyd Stadium), playing home games at the Las Vegas Stadium . NFL team owners voted 31--1 to approve the move, which was announced at the annual league meetings in Phoenix, Arizona on March 27, 2017 . The Raiders became the third NFL franchise to relocate in the 2010s, following the Rams' move from St. Louis, Missouri to Los Angeles, California on January 12, 2016, and the Chargers' move from San Diego, California to Los Angeles on January 12, 2017 . The Raiders' move to Las Vegas comes after years of failed efforts to renovate or replace the Oakland--Alameda County Coliseum, which has been rated by multiple sources as one of the worst stadiums in the NFL . </P> <P> The Oakland Raiders were founded as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL) in 1960 . The team joined the NFL as a result of the merger in 1970 . From 1966 until 1981, it played home games at the Oakland--Alameda County Coliseum, which it shared with Major League Baseball's Oakland Athletics after that team moved to Oakland in 1968 . In 1980 Al Davis, dissatisfied with the stadium situation in Oakland and seeing luxury boxes as the future of the NFL came to an agreement with the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum commission to move the Raiders to Los Angeles . The NFL had refused to let the team move, but a court over-ruled the league, clearing the way for the Raiders to move to Los Angeles and become the Los Angeles Raiders . In 1982, the Raiders (then owned by Al Davis) were approved to relocate from Oakland to Los Angeles . The Raiders played home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum from 1982--1994 . In 1995, after being unable to secure a new stadium in the Los Angeles area the Raiders moved back to Oakland . </P>
