Remodeled and renamed “Rickey’s,” the bar will welcome fans of all Bay Area sports teams — present, past and the one that plans to leave
The walls have been stripped of the jerseys of the greats — Otto, Sistrunk, Plunkett, Blanda, Chester — and the historic sideline photo of Madden and Stabler. Also gone are the display cases filled with helmets, pennants, programs, “Reserved for Al Davis” and “Commitment to Excellence” signs, a “JST WIN BBY” license plate and other Oakland Raiders memorabilia.
“It was awesome,” said Tim Pinney, of San Leandro, who wore Raiders gear on his first return visit. “I look forward to going back there for more sporting events, especially Raiders games.” He started talking with Tina Ricardo, Ricky’s widow, a year ago, then bought the business and set about renovating the interior and upgrading the infrastructure and menu in November. The bar has been in its current location on Hesperian Boulevard since 1960, though Ricky Ricardo’s father, a San Leandro native, opened the business in 1946.
There are 40 TVs, including two large screens for big sporting events outdoors. In the room he calls the Fantasy Lounge, where 11 screens are mounted, “the true Fantasy League fan can sit and watch all the games at once.”
