Doubt they will knock it down. They are gonna keep trying to renovate that parking lot. Angel stadium has decent bones and can be turned into a damn good stadium still
Angel fan since 1998. Go to 20 games a year. There's NOTHING wrong with our stadium! Maybe replace some seats? Maybe re-label the sections with new signs? Maybe renovate the bathrooms? Maybe give it some new paint. But tear down the whole thing? No. I personally like the big parking lot. Makes it easy to get in and out. I feel like this is only being talked about because of the team's recent struggles. Arte needs to sell! Also, if every stadium was renovated to modern standards, every ballpark would look the same. Who wants that?
Exactly! I keep hearing him talk about how awful this stadium is but I totally disagree! I go to a ton of Angels games and have never thought they needed to demolish the stadium. A renovation? Maybe. But absolutely no need to demolish
You do realize that the owners don’t look at it like the fans do don’t you? The fans aren’t even a consideration in the stadium one up game and what we want or don’t want isn’t even discussed
Wouldn’t a roof make a stadium much better though? Especially since that would eliminate any weather issues / inconveniences. Roofs, especially translucent ones in general seem to be gaining traction now.
@@RB01.10 Southern California doesn't have weather issues like the rest of the country. I believe Angel Stadium has had only 2 or 3 rained out games since 1995. I'm wearing shorts and flip flops to games in early April.
@@RB01.10 Yeah I understand having retractable roofs in places that have heavy rain, snow, or heat. But definitely no need for one at Angel Stadium. Anaheim always has great weather and there is no better experience than an open-air ballpark.
Answer: Not in our lifetime, unless Angels' owner foot the total bill for a new stadium. The current location is perfect if a new ballpark is built. Long Beach is too far with less density than Orange County. Also, the State of California is done with paying for new stadiums unless the local governments want the new stadium within their limits, like the 49ers in Santa Clara.
Fun fact regarding Angels Stadium: Those curving, low outfield walls where the left and right foul poles stand were originally inspired by the configuration of the 1923 Yankees Stadium! Look at some old photos from the 50's and early 60's and you'll notice the similarities. First few rows of outfield seats nearly level with the warning tracks. Take away the green padding in exchange for mesh gates, and there you go! Even the foul pole to seat configurations at Dodgers Stadium harken back to old Yankees Stadium.❤
Here we go again. No one here in SoCal dislikes this venue. There is no way the Halos can make as much money anywhere else. Long Beach would be a nightmare. Have fun trying to get there for those dumb 6:30 starts. Retractable roof? In SoCal? Are you insane?
This guy is a tool. Doesn’t know anything. Been going to the big A for about 30 years. Needs some minor renovations but overall love our ballpark. Arte please sell the team. #LTBU
Loved watching the LA RAMS on TV back east from Anaheim Stadium. Lots of great classic Rock Bands have played there as well. DISNEY messed it up along with the Uniform change in the late 90's. Almost perfect weather just about everyday. Easy to get to. Especially when compared to Chavez Ravine. Bring back DAVID ECKSTEIN as Manager!
IM SICK of the parking lot hate when if it’s the opposite and there’s not enough parking THATS A BIG PROBLEM. Trust me parking lots are saviors of United States culture we need it
Orange County has picture perfect weather and zero rain during Baseball season.. I like DG, but cmon Man. You gotta do better, step up your research and quit making proclamations that make zero sense..
Seeing those pictures of the stadium set up motor-cross brings back some great memories from my childhood. I’m 38 and the only changes I can think of are the scoreboard improvements and the left-center field greenery improvements. Everything else has remained the same.
Angel Stadium is a gem! B-e-a utiful place to watch games. I vote for a ballpark village in centerfield like St. Louis or the Battery in Atlanta, maybe something like the Staples Center or Rangers ballpark in Arlington and a bunch of affordable condo towers. And by affordable I mean like $50k units not $500k. Make it a place for working people.
I can’t say this more strongly. Whether the fans think you need a new stadium or not is 100% completely irrelevant in the stadium game. I mean, the fans opinion isn’t even a discussion. When will the American public realize that the owners are primarily about making money over everything else.
If they built a new stadium next to the old one they would want to add a stadium district around it. They won the W.S. in 2002 - it's hard to believe how far they have fallen.
It takes decades for any abandoned stadium in California to be demolished. There’s too much red tape. Angels stadium is going to be here for decades. Same with the Coliseum.
Not the same story. That was literally made into a landmark because it was the 8th wonder of the world. California is just incompetent, lazy and corrupt.
You be correct...I live in eastern California...it's called denver...where thousands have migrated to...and bought a house here for half.the price...along with five Toyota suv...and three new teslas... why not move.the angels to monterrey mejico???...
Angels fan here. Been miserable for over a decade. The ownership is just cashing out. He can care less about winning. The stadium experience is absolutely horrible. Not Oakland As horrible but for a team that has had a ton of support from the fans it's pathetic. I stopped showing up 3yrs ago.
Huge Angels fan here, went to my first game in 1984 for my tenth birthday! Angels stadium is old and feels old, but fits like a perfectly worn in glove. There was a proposal floating around to build multiple parking structures (ala Disneyland) next to the current park and build a new park on the current grounds. As part of that proposal, they were going to add in a new business park and some low income housing along with shopping/dining areas. This sounded like a fair compromise for the city and the Angels, but for whatever reason was squashed. We should go back to being the California Angels, with a new stadium before we make any sort of investment in major league talent, we have nothing in the minors and we keep throwing bad contract after bad contract and getting nowhere.
This channel loses credibility when he doesn't do his homework. The Angels getting a new stadium is non-existent at the moment. Ever since the FBI raided the city and Arte MoMo-reno were caught making illegal campaign donations to the Anaheim city council.
I think he was saying when new ownership comes in they will push to build a new ball park. But yeah he doesn't do any home work. "Angels were in talks with long Beach to move" yeah they never even met lol
Have you ever been to Angel Stadium or Dodger Stadium? Dodger Stadium has "charm", lol. Dodger Stadium is just a bunch of seats. Angel Stadium is much nicer to watch a ballgame and is family friendly unlike Dodger Stadium.
salt lake angels....joseph smith's angels...like charlie's angels....tijuana angels....mexicali angels....it would be tough to do anything in cali unless you go full steve ballmer which would be smart.......
@@TimFrith24 I don't see it happening. The Clippers would have built their new arena there first instead of down the street. Clippers own the Kia Forum.

I just went to a game! The stadium is old but still in decent condition
The name Anaheim Angels just makes sense.
But it turns the Angels into a small market team. For better or for worse the team makes way more money with "LA" in their name as opposed to Anaheim.
I want to see a return of the California Angels
Best name they ever had
Yes absolutely
Wish Oakland coliseum could’ve went the Angel stadium route and remove mt. Davis to turn it into a faithfully restored ballpark
Al Davis ruined the Oakland Coliseum.
Keep the A's in Oakland where they belong

Love the Big A. Would love to see a stadium district like they are bulding around the Pond.
My first visit to The Big A was in 86' during Wally World days. Loved that stadium.
I've been there. It's really not that bad.
IM SICK of the parking lot hate when if it’s the opposite and there’s not enough parking THATS A BIG PROBLEM. Trust me parking lots are saviors of United States culture we need it
Great point! I love the way the sports complex in Philly has all the sports venues in one spot with a huge parking lot.. Just makes a lot of sense..
Retractable roof? For that reason, that area doesn’t have weather issues to need a retractable roof.
Orange County has picture perfect weather and zero rain during Baseball season..
I like DG, but cmon Man. You gotta do better, step up your research and quit making proclamations that make zero sense..
It is actually the best place to go to for BP before the game.
There's nothing wrong with Angel Stadium.
I agree. Don’t demolish it

If a stadium is becoming overly obsolete, outdated, and falling apart then it does make sense though
We don’t want a new stadium, it’s a solid ballpark that just needs a few upgrades
What about a roof to avoid any inclement weather?
I don’t live there so I don’t know how well SoCal weather cooperates.
If they built a new stadium next to the old one they would want to add a stadium district around it.
They won the W.S. in 2002 - it's hard to believe how far they have fallen.
Arte Moreno cursed this franchise.
I didn’t exist for most of their tenure but is it safe to say that 2002 was their one shining moment?
Nope, renovated is 100% chance
It takes decades for any abandoned stadium in California to be demolished. There’s too much red tape. Angels stadium is going to be here for decades. Same with the Coliseum.
Not just California. The Astrodome in Houston is still standing 😂
Not the same story. That was literally made into a landmark because it was the 8th wonder of the world. California is just incompetent, lazy and corrupt.
I enjoy this stadium; it reminds me of Old Yankee stadium.
Imagine having $2 billion to blow on an unnecessary stadium instead of, I dunno, feeding hungry children.
Exactly
I don’t get these big owners sometimes. They have billions yet hardly donate to those who actually need it.
As an Angel fan I love the stadium. If they move out of Orange County I’m done with the team
Now do a when will Fenway Park get demolished video. After all iTs oLd
Yeah they need to go back to the California Angels.

They will never leave Anaheim..
The is no way the city of Anaheim will bring down Anaheim Stadium.
I'm also an Angels fan!

If it’s any consolation, they’ll always have that 2002 World Series championship.
Five other teams probably wish they had at least one.
The team needs new ownership first. If they decide to renovate or build a new stadium here in Anaheim it would just be the cherry on top.
6:38 Wow, they really had to shoehorn that football field in this stadium! Surprised they had enough room for the end zones and the Uprights!
It still gets used in the winter for east coast teams to practice during the playoffs.
