This weekend Rockstar Games goes back, back to the previous incarnation of San Andreas with a special event weekend for GTA Online. Of course you can take in bonus RP & GTA$, limited time shirts for you GTAO character, in-game discounts on select items, and contests! More details below...
DOUBLE GTA$ AND RP FOR PLAYING THE SAN ANDREAS THROWBACK JOBS PLAYLIST
This weekend only, playing the "San Andreas Throwback Jobs" Featured Playlist will grant you Double RP and Double GTA$, regardless of whether you win or lose. To take advantage, simply launch GTAV and hit the "Featured Playlist" button on the launch screens, or access it via the "Playlists" section of the GTA Online Start Menu.
EXCLUSIVE SAN ANDREAS RADIO STATION T-SHIRTS
Look to the skies all weekend for Crate Drops containing exclusive retro t-shirts of four classic radio stations from a time when FM was king. These tees will be up for grabs in Freemode sessions, along with an accompanying trove of weaponry and GTA$ in each Crate.
- Bounce FM

And for those who'd like to recapture that 90's west coast radio vibe, check out compilations of these and other San Andreas radio stations (as well as other titles in the Grand Theft Auto legacy) available via Spotify and iTunes.
