Thanks so much for watching and adding a comment. Tiger Stadium was by far my favorite place to see an MLB game. I think when the team sold it to the city, it was the begging of the end. So sad it sat around rotting for so long, so much could have been done to restore part of it. I mean if Michigan Central can get saved, anything can. Thanks again and Go Tigers!

That's the moderate world we live in every stadium has corporate naming rights You basically asking ownership to lose money it's just not realistic

That is so cool, I wish I had got one back then. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment.

Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment. Yes you are correct, the group that maintained the field in the years after the stands were torn down were called the Navin Field Grounds Crew. There were some organized game played there as well.

Thank you so much for watching and leaving this kind comment. Glad you enjoyed it.

Oh my, I am truly honored to read your comment. So cool that your aunt was the Tiger Lady! Those were such amazing days. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know about your aunt.

I totally agree, I still miss watching games at Tiger Stadium. My argument is if they can same Michigan Central, they could have saved Tiger Stadium, I kind of wish the Tigers never got city involved. It had so much potential for upgrade. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment, I appreciate it.

That is so well put and written, I totally agree. And what a great story about grabbing an orange seat. Don't see many of those around. Yeah the baseball players, fans, and stadiums are so different. I'm just grateful to see some of these remnants from time to time, always takes me back to those days. Thanks for watching, I truly appreciate it.

Oh wow, I did not realize that about Mantle. That is so cool. Thank you for watching and sharing this tidbit.

I totally agree, I sure miss the old ball parks of the past. Hopefully Fenway and Wrigley can stick around for years to come. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment.

Oh thank you so much for this, I truly appreciate it. As for Bobcat's and Mercury I did feature them in my first video I did on Tiger Stadium last year. You are right, great places for memorabilia. I've been wanting to get to see the Hamtramck Stadium since it was cleaned up and restored. Hope to be down there soon. Thanks for checking out my video.

Yeah right

Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment. So exciting you got to see Gibby in a Tiger uniform before he retired. You might be referring to a walk-off HR Gibson hit in May of 1995 into the upper-deck. I believe his HR's that cleared the roof were in 1983 and 1986. Here is a UA-cam link to that 1995 game. Enjoy, it never gets old for me: ua-cam.com/video/mNfYwmS-U4I/v-deo.htmlsi=IxG914WP7BESGYJ6

@@greatlaker Nope it was May 1st 1994 off “Black” Jack McDowell. Search “Gibson clears roof” 2nd video 14 seconds long.

@@opinionmaximus Wow, nice find! Thanks for bringing back that memory.

@@greatlaker I obviously had the year wrong. I SWORE It was ‘95 🤣. Last of 5 games I went to at Tiger Stadium. 🥲

I often wonder that too. If Fenway and Wrigley can do it, I think Tiger Stadium could have too. I think the complicated part was the city owning the stadium and saving the stadium was not a priority. I think if it were current day the results would be much different. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment.

Oh yeah, my fav. Thank you for watching.

Watching a game there was magical. I was not at that last game, but was at the last Saturday game a couple days earlier. Of course I watched every moment of that last game on TV. Thanks for sharing a comment and watching, I really appreciate it.

Awe thank you so much Jim. Yeah, this "sequel" was fun to put together. So glad I finally got it out. I hope you had a great Father's Day. I always appreciate your comments.

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, I do appreciate it. I sure hope you get a chance to take in some of the history of Tiger Stadium while in Detroit.

@@greatlaker Was entertaining and informative. Am sharing with other friends who like to explore new cities . So much history and character for Detroit Tigers, the city , and surrounding area . Keep up the good work. 💪

@@jameskelly6152 thank you so much, I'm flattered. I do many different kinds of videos, but this is my favorite and true passion.

Thank you so much for this, I had read a while back this was the case (including the flag pole in the field of play) and it's good to hear you confirm the field location. I'm honored you watched my video and added this comment.

With the Corner Ballpark, it's good to check ahead to see if there is an event or call them to see if you can get it. It is not always open. I did go to a college baseball game there back in April and it was free to just walk in. Thank you so much for watching.

Yeah, that's too bad. For as many games as fans attend it would be nice to get a part of that history for a decent price. Thank you for watching.

The city owned it and just left it to rot. It was a dark time for Detroit and saving the stadium just wasn't a priority. I think if happened now it would have a different outcome. I like the idea of the Corner Ballpark, it would have been nice to at least save a part of the grandstand. I appreciate your comments.

Thanks Jim, enjoy your weekend.

And it’s in a cute town as well. Thanks for checking it out

Oh yeah, that was a classic. When I rounded 3rd I kept thinking about Kirk Gibson's HR off Gossage in game 5 of the 1984 World Series. Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment. I appreciate that memory.

I totally agree, just incredible.

I think that is the plan, as they will be expanding the museum.

Yes, such a historic place

OMG I totally forgot about mail order tickets. I did the same thing. Also I kind of recall getting Tiger tickets at Hudson's (no fee). These were the years before "CTC" tix came along and started adding the fees. Thanks for watching and leaving this memory.
