The crowd has been known to get hyped even in games that finished with 42-43 scores. The problem is the setting. You can see that most people are hesitant to even jump around. It is marble and the stadium's been there for 2400 years. You ain't jumping around on that for the same reason you do not eat soup over your grandmother's favourite tablecloth. Not in Greece, at least. :P
Great work guys on giving us the vibe from the event! Just a small correction to you (and everyone below that used it): Ranks and honorifics are only used with the names of the living. So, it's not Mr Pavlos Yiannakopoulos anymore. It's just Pavlos Yiannakopoulos (at 11:06 his name is used with Mr).
Greek fans to break some rules with the flairs? Mate are in@@ot?Its a historic place. No disrespect on those places. This stadium, Panathinaic stadium it dates back to 330 B. C. and it's reconstructed for the first modern Olympics. Grown up and so some respect.
The Panathenaic stadium might have hosted the first modern Olympics in 1896 but it is much older. Its initial construction dates back to 330/329 BC.
You guys are legends, doing fantastic work in promoting Euro ball. Take care from Belgrade
Panathenaic Stadium is a historical stadium that does not allow you to use any kind of Pyro-show or drink/eat anything else beside water within it. So, as panathinaikos fans, we respect our history,we respect our club and greece. There were police that scanning for pyro-related items with dogs all arround. Imagine having 80.000 in OAKA outdoor next season what will happen. PAO Above All. ;)
no food?
Holy shit....that's crazy. I'm american....so our assess gotta eat at a game lmao
@@sfdko3291💀
@@sfdko3291 that's panathinaikos playing, we don't eat we just cheer for our team. You could go watch olympiacos games, all they do is eating chips
@@sfdko3291😂😂you choose the game without food or from your house eating pizza,easy choice? 😅
@@sfdko3291 That need you guys have over there to eat during basketball matches really amazes me.
It's neither a cinema, nor a restaurant dude. You are there to support your team. Help them win. That's the point of having a home game.
Great video, guys. Provides sort of a backstage perspective of the event. Nice of you to visit, we love you in Greece.
One in a lifetime event. Lucky for whoever could go .Historic !
I should probably correct you boys about something.
The last matches in the Kallimarmaro stadium did not happen in 1968. 1968 was the date the first European trophy came to Greece, as AEK won the Cup Winners Cup.
But it wasn't the last time. Kallimarmaro was used well into the early 80s.
With the last official matchup being a Greek Cup Semi Final match between AEK and Panathinaikos in 1982.
Cement floors and weather affecting the ball fell out of fashion when ΟΑΚΑ was built in 1995, and SEF in 1985.
The mistake you made was also made by our own sportscasters, who should probably know better.
And it's actually Kallimármaro. The intonation sound is in the letter "a".
But yeah, glad to have you. 🙂☘

OAKA (the indoors hall) was built in 1995.
@@gnak15 Yes, right. My mistake. We were playing in Leoforos until 1992.
Glyfada from 1992 to 1995 and 1995 onwards we played in OAKA.
and because i'm gavros and I have to mention it, Kallimarmaro was the venue of the biggest win ever in an eternal derby in 1977 (I think), where Olympiacos won Panathinaikos 110-68 in Greek Cup.
THIS IS UNIQUE!!!!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!OMG
loved your video, greetings from green Athens ☘️🇬🇷⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
welcome to athens greece guys welcome to the country of hospitality hope you guys had a great time in Panathenaic Stadium. wow 42k crazy and amazing people next year is gonna be with 80k people!! The King is Back !💚☘☘☘☘☘☘☘ by the way why you didn't bring ritys lmao
Congratulations to PAO for organizing such a great spectacle. Mr Pavlos deserves to be remembered in basketball community with great event. Regards from Canada, Partizan fan.
Greetings from Germany, my Serbian brother
This epic tournament will go down in history books ! Mr Pavlos , we miss you so much !
Excellent video, guys!!
Bravo, keep on.
We are watching you!
Thanks for attending
Great job guys !!!!!
its important to mention that olympiakos owners asked from the police not to allow Giannakopoulos to attend the venue due to the ban he has. They did allow him to honor his father memory and legacy. But what can you expect from a culture that played the game with posioned CSKA players back in day?
No Olympiakos asked that for the Super Cup. The athletic justice courts have decided that an official man that swears and threatens publicly cannot be present in a basketball court for some time, that's a fair punishment. Make him stop the white stuff he's taking
The stadium is an archaeological monument first of all that it needs protection from any damages and secondly but not less important, behind the back and the left side of the stadium there is a forrest... So any pyro it would be not only foolish but criminally irrensposible.
We don’t do civilized games in 🇬🇷. Feels strange 😊
Great atmosphere.Greetings from an Aris Thessaloniki fan!
Respect to the original Final 4 dynasty. 😊☘
Σεβασμός στον μπασκετικό Αρη! Εύχομαι να επιστρέψετε σύντομα στην Ευρωλίγκα. Πιστεύω το αξίζει μόνο και μόνο για την ιστορία της ομάδας.
Hope to had a great time on our city guys and you will be always most welcome!! Yes, the quality was below standards but ''who was watching the game''? LOL. We were all so ecstatic from what we were experiencing that who won and who lost didn't matter at all. Unbelievable event to honour a great man of basketball!!!!
Panathinaikos is King, amazing team in all aspects.. Celtics should taste real green energy 🏀💚
You forgot to mention that this stadium is almost 2500 years old.
I am afraid it isn't mate...
You're always welcomed at Peace and Friendship stadium boys
Great video, guys! Kudos! ☘
The college basketball championship is played in massive indoor football stadiums but this atmosphere is much better.
Make Panathenaic Stadium Great again🙏
Μαθήματα εξέδρας πάνω στην ιστορία της Ευρώπης. This is panathinaikos ☘️
A foreign guy wishing that people will actually break the rules and Greeks not doing so is weird to me 😂
Like the exact opposite of what I would expect.
We use flairs only on indoor basketball games in Greece. Everyone knows that
No thats a lie. We use flairs everywhere. Panathinaikos asked the fans to not use flairs because of the holy meaning of this stadium
@@Goerge-lu3ok sarcasm , from Greek word Σαρκασμός
Legend Pavlos, World Wide Legend Tournament in a historical stadium. 42k Pao Fans, Legend European Team. 7 times Euroleague champion.
Panathinaikos has returned to the old glory days. The seventh star is only the beginning of what will follow. The best days are soon to come.☘
The King is Back ☘ !
We knew we had to be civil and respectful of the historic monument, that's why all the fans were tame with no flares and very few aggressive chants. That night was a celebration in honor of the patriarch of the club, which in addition to the special venue and the view of the Acropolis made the occassion unique ☘
We spent so much money to build stadiums back in 2004 for the Olympic games and now that all those stadiums are abandoned and rusty they host events at the only marble stadium in the world which should be treated as a monument and not an event place...I live behind this stadium for 34 years and every time an event is hosted they block the entrance to the whole Arditos Hill for 3-7 days,the excuse is that they do it for our safety to avoid accidents but the truth is that they don't want people to watch without ticket or have their equipment stolen at night,you see the place is public and very big so people could go and watch the event for free,they cannot guard the whole place so they block the entrance to so many people for days before the event...These events should go away from Kalimarmaro,its better for local people and the stadium itself...
yeap unique event. flairs could damage marbles , thats why. its an archeological monument.
Great job guys!!
No breaking of rules, Greeks respect the historic monuments, they're above any club
That is much better than NBA. 😮
Course it is. 😎☘
The best basketball fans in the world ☘️🇬🇷
Rytis too busy again?
329 bc...the first event in this location for Panathinaia (honouring Goddes Athena). This behaviour was just a great respect in 2.500 years of our history.
obviously AS Lithuanians you dont have the culture to understund that in this more than 2000 years old stadium that restore for the first modern olympics in 1896 people react with respect to our history and to the memory of Pavlos, also the players Sloukas,Rolenzo Brown, Matia Lesort and Kostas Antetokounpo didnt be ready to play and no one push them because it was just a friendly game. If you want a real game to the officially loudest stadium in euroleague come to OAKA
Nice vid but you need to understand that this is a very historic stadium for Greece. Its more of a historic monument than just a stadium. You cant just fire flares and risk any damage. People understand and respect that.
The KING is back!!
Stadium s name is panathinaiko because of panathinaia on anciet greece......in our days because of the restore they added ,,kallimarmaro wich means beautefull marbles ,,,so the full name is Panathinaiko kallimarmaro stadium,,,,,or Panathinaiko stadium the name from long times ago !!!
ΠΑΟ 1908
Duuuuude imagine Final 4 in that venue, that would be nuts. One semifinal between Pao and Oly, the other Zvezda - Partizan 😂😂😂
Sadly I don't see this ever happening again. Giannakopoulos basically said that this happened because OAKA's getting renovated at the moment.
Wind and outdoor conditions really impact the game , not a good idea. This was simply a pre season tournament
THAT'S what we need (outdoor final 4)
Don't think it's possible to put fans/ultras from two different teams in that stadium...
Also this dude wants to see our monument blow up with those matches.
Ρε παιδιά μόνο εμένα μου φαίνεται οτι είμαστε όλοι ελληνες μαζεμένοι στα σχόλια?😂
Some grammatic rules Mr. Journalist.
When someone is dead he is not "mister" anymore.
So it's "pavlos giannakopoulos" not "Mr. Pavlos giannakopoulos"
No mate, Its not just "pavlos giannakopoulos" ...it's "the late great Pavlos Giannakopoulos".

No way there were 42,000 people in the stadium
Cause there were more with no tickets
@gian13. they were less than 35,000 imo
this stadium is much bigger than you think
@opados13 so you are telling me there were more people on the tournament than in a sold out Karaiskakis stadium? I don't think so
@@Kouroupettos243 Karaiskakis is a seated stadium. Panathenaiko is a "sit-anywhere-you-want-cause-of marbles" stadium.
Plus it can easily fit 70-80 thousand people in there. They just didn't do that because of safety protocols and vision issues.
42.000=20000 beeee🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
🖤🤍💚🤍🏀🏆
Are you sure there were 42 thousand? Because according to red karpaziers there were about 15-20k
The stadium was 70% booked from the looks and its capacity is 45k according to Wikipedia but the people didn't seat with distance from one to another. If you see there are 4-6 people in one square meter and you can assume that it was near 40k. Also they were selling tickets so...
@@Soped You choose to look current Wikipedia measures. Look at the original ones in 1896.
And trust me, people sat reeaal close to each other.
@DimShamrock it doesn't matter if it says 80k in the past. Because they might have changed things and now it can get less people inside. But nonetheless I already said that it would be around 40k and 42 was reported so..
@@Soped It's not even close to 70% though. Both the rear and the front are empty.
@DimShamrock the rear and the front are very small compared to the rest. The stadium is huge. If the people were put to sit properly they would easily cover the rest as well.
10:32 Lessort... 😄😄😄
Partizan 🖤🤍
The world is too small when you are a Panathinaikos fan ☘
42000 fans were after all! Thank you for your kind words!!!
We love to see a game between NBA champs with euroleague champs Athens kalimarmaro stadium - even God's will be whatcing 😊
Every time every where is the biggest 2 teams FENERBAHCE AND OLYMPIACOS
😂
Both of you have less Euroleague trophies than us alone pal.
And I have more leagues than both you and the gavri combined.
You can add Zvezda in there too, for extra credit. 😅
Hilarious
6:57 why is dev in the lab glitching? 😅😅
PANATHINAIKOS GATE 13 IS THE BEST ULTRAS IS WORLD…THIS STADIUM IS HISTORICAL THATS WHY ANYBODY DIDNT HAVE PYRO
The comments about Rytis 😂😂😂
As a Greek these fans are fake. 99% of Panathinaikos and Olympiacos fans are fake glory hunters.
If Olympiacos becomes mediocre in every level (football and basketball) the stadiums will be empty, if Panathinaikos football club doesn't perform the stadium is empty and everyone goes to basketball and the opposite.
Lol.AEK, ΠΑΟΚ οr Aris fan?
@@giorgiosmy4080 PAOK. Surely.
CMIIW, from what I heard, this stadium is more than 2.000 years old right?
Its Been used since ancient olympics in ancient greece era
Yes, that's correct.
It's ancient, but it was restored in the late 19th century in order to host the first Modern Olympic Games in 1896 (practically field and tracks at that time). It's entirely built from Pentelikon marble, the "whitest" of all known marbles in the world. As in ancient times there were never existed registered seats, the Panathinaikon -Kallimarmaron- Stadium is vast, it can host almost 80.000 spectators. (The first synthetic "Kalli" of the word "kallimarmaron" means beautiul/fine and the second one "marmaron" means marble).
The marble stadium was built around 144bc (Earlier there was another stadium in its place). Olympic games started much earlier than that and of course were not located in Athens, but at the Ancient Olympia. The first modern Olympics at 1896 took place at Panathinaikon Stadium.
No pyro allowed in this holy stadium. Not even food. They allow 1 water bottle per person. Thats it!
You kids dont know where you are...
Disrespectful.
Better cover than TV
Actually this stadium was built on the ancient stadium of Athens. Where actual athletes competed some 2500 years ago.
we olympiakos gonna smash these guys next season.

Να σαι καλά. Γελάσαμε κι αποψε😅😅😅😅

If you have ever played outdoors basketball, you know that there is greater risk for injury. It is only natural that top class players play conservatively, protecting their health in the beginning of the season. Congratulations to your channel. Best luck to Serbian, Greek, and Turkish teams in the Euroleague 24-25.
Welcome to Athens ❤
Who won?
Irrelevant...
Partizan and Efes.
The stadium was half empty, it was a disaster a total failure.
Keep crying son of Sloukas
EVERY POST HAS A MULE......
@@Vazelakopoulos13 cry τανασγιε
...failure is that you were born, ρε απόγονε του στόλου!!
Can someone explain overpopulation to me.... in 1968 there were 80.000 in that same stadium to see AEK vs. Slavia Prage-
And now with all the communication, much more population, etc... we can only get 42.000.
Doesnt make any sense to me-
Not a Greek so someone else might correct me on this, but: 1. Demographic difference is not that big (~9m vs ~10m), also population is on average older which could also affect attendance 2. You are comparing attendance of a European Cup finals vs a pre season exhibition match 3. 1968 holds the record for a reason - it was an exception, not the norm. 4. I would not be surprised if 1968 match was attended by neutral or other Greek team fans to support a Greek team, while the current one was probably exclusively attended by PAO and die hard basketball fans.
It was an order from the ministry of culture to put out a max of 35.000 tickets for security issues
First of all, If there were 80000 tickets available there would have been a sold out as well. And second, back then it wasn't just AEK fans, but fans from different teams who just supported the Greek team because it was the first time that a Greek team was playing in a European final in any sport
the stadium was reconstructed (not entirely)
Really good replies, basketball people are the best, thank you
over 40,000 it was.
42.000 Fans in a Stadium for 45.000 and the half of the stadium was empty. hahaha rabbits 13 liars. ONLY AEK in ATHENS
Να τανε η ζήλια ψώρα....
Α playoff game or even worse a final four game would never be allowed in that stadium by the ministry of culture,it should be renovated after 😂🔥

Fat chance , they were 40.000… More like 20.000 and to top it up they lost the game again….

Such a looser..
Thats beautiful
ATHENS MEANS PAN ATHINA ICOS!! The only team of Athens - the ambassador of Greece in Europe ☘️🏛️🇬🇷☘️
In the strict area of the Metropolitan Municipality of Athens there are some more sports clubs, like Panellinios, Fokianos , Sporting and they used to be some more.
@@arisarsenis3500 We are talking about the main and biggest team of the whole of Athens and it’s suburbs, as well as the one who holds the majority of fans in the Lekanopedio of Attica
@@freedomtoultras keep dreaming. Olympiacos is light years ahead in regards to fan base, shitty ass Attica included.
the ambassador of Greece is Olympiakos, they only team with multiple european cups in all team sports
Gytis, you look like your a good kid dude but please stop acting like you are unbiased when in reality you are a big time ''Vazela'' 😜. Do me a favour, when you guys do videos about Olympiacos on the show, it doesn't look right when Gytis does them. Let someone else do them, it just looks and feels terribly wrong. Do the panathinaikos one like now. Donatas on the other hand might be Panathinaikos, but he's older and in the game longer to know the do's and don'ts. You have done prob like 3 videos on Olympiacos and always something bad to say like about Fournier, when Donatas said to make a video when he came, you said " Really, should we'' Come on man that just sound totally wrong . Let Rytis, do them . Also i don't understand why you guys are trying to hide what teams you are 🤔 Anyways, you guys look like cool guys in general, but lets please cut the bull. Its starting to get annoying. Try to keep up the good work 😉 And may the best win.
You are just jealous we got to host this event. Just enjoy the video.
Also your predictions about these guys are way off. They predicted us to end up 10th last year, and they also thought Maccabi might win the Playoffs series.
And they made plenty of Dwayne Bacon jokes.
And they also said that we bought our success.
Also Rytis might have gone into hiding after last year. Talk about an Olympiacos fan right there.
A bunch of nonsense
@@DimShamrock Vazelako' relax. Not jealous, ? The event looked awesome dude, did not say anything about that. On the other hand, it looks like you have insecurity issues. I didn't say anything in a bad manner towards them or mean. Just said, he should do Panathinaikos videos since he is Panathinaikos and Rytis Olympiacos. Also asked, why they need to hide what team they are. Did you even read what i said? min eiste kolimenoi.
@@costasmacheras8099 All I'm going to say, fishaka,, is that it's been proven that they are not green-friendly at all.
7 stars, going to win the Conference this year, couple of degrees and language diplomas in my back, future in front of me...
Yeah. Huge insecurity issues. Thank god you aren't a psychologist. 🤣
@@DimShamrock The good thing is you made me laugh with Fishaka 🤣, really, and i mean that in a good way. 😉As for your green friendly comment, which i agree is more correctly phrased, lets agree to disagree but the insecurity is still showing as you had to explain that you have couple degrees and language diplomas who doesn't and thank god Im not a psychologist 😝. You're taking things to personal. Your event in Athens was great but imagine Rytis doing all the Panathinaiko videos. Thats all Im saying. It shows both ways dude. Like i said before May the best win .

If you're interested, kallimarmaro is pronounced emphasizing the 3rd syllable from the end. not the 2nd from the end like you did.
btw this is why you guy have the best channel. Greek channels didn't even bother to go
This channel used to be good. Unsubscribed after 1 year.
Embarrassing cheering from Pao fans
You do know it's an ancient monument, right? And a friendly?
Serbs are the most restarted people I have ever seen. Pretty sad.
Either you are 15 years old, either you have a pumpking between your shoulders instead of head.
beautiful
Very bad atmosphere I don’t know why won’t panathinaikos fans just admit it
Don’t be jealous
it's a venue to honor someone who passed away.. not a balkan war cry like yours was
because it’s a lie and you know it😘 stop being so hurt from our 7th star loser 💫💫💫🌟💫💫💫
So obvious you are a Zvezda fan.
