Golden State
Sacramento's home turf
Golden State is a nickname for California, evoking the state's sunshine, golden poppies, and the Gold Rush that drew settlers in 1849.
The term appears in official contexts—California's state nickname—and in sports: the Golden State Warriors basketball team.
We're moving to the Golden State next year.
