    $30 for parking? At a stadium that barely attracts 3k?!?! What a joke. The Angels charge just $10 for parking, and there's $5 parking just 10 minutes away..

    Fun fact: Tom Hanks was a hotdog vendor at this stadium as a teenager. During the 2020 season there was a cardboard cutout of him in a vendor uniform behind home plate and occasionally on the fake crowd noise they pumped in you could hear his voice which he provided lines for.

    Let’s hear it for the A’s fan base! Sticking with their team and always faithful and smiling.

    The last time I went there was in the 70's on a bat day. No empty seats. Maybe they should raise the prices even MORE and that will bring in the crowds, huh?

    It's sad that so few people go to see my beloved A's now. But when your owner decided to get rid of all of the star players year after year, and the local government keeps dragging their feet on a new stadium, I can't blame them. The Coliseum used to be a beautiful park before Mt. Davis was built in 1996, and it was packed too. This is just pathetic now. I really hope they get that new waterfront park, but if it doesn't happen by July 4, I guess I'll see them in Vegas. Go A's!

    I have sympathy for the first guy who they ran into - Guy's a true fan , hat , glove, jersey, for his sake I hope The A's get a new stadium..If they move to Vegas all you'll get there is casual tourists fans who wouldn't know the difference between Reggie Jackson and Michael Jackson

    I always feel bad for the workers and loyal fans of these teams in situations like this. I understand the owner's frustrations, but sometimes I get tired of all of the tax breaks these teams receive to stay in a city.

    I’m an A’s fan. Been to about 50 games in my lifetime. That stadiums downward spiral has been sad to watch.

    I am an Oakland fan because they play spring training in my town.. Mesa, AZ.. I find the Oakland fans to be the BEST fans in baseball..they are so fun and have to put up with so many of their stars leaving year after year.. even though they have an amazing history of winning. Let's Go Oakland!!! cue drums

    YOU WENT!!! YAY!! I live up the street and I regret not going to last nights game. We A's fans (the ones who haven't been put off by ownership at least) are loyal and awesome! Yes, The Coliseum is a dump but it's our dump! Thanks for stopping by Adam!

    I found myself immediately applauding Hot Dog Guy, bringin his "A" game 💯 no matter who or who's not looking...Hotdog Hal is it? Awesome energy!! The Hotdog Hals of the world are my absolute friggin heroes. Show em all how its done Hal! No matter what we do, it's how we do it, and how we show up for ourselves that always counts. Heck yeah, Hal. Thank you! 👏👏👏

    As a lifelong A's fan... THANK YOU FOR THIS VLOG! It will live in HISTORY as one last fan experience. You did it justice my friend!

    As an Expos fan, this one hit pretty hard. It's so plainly obvious what ownership is doing. I'd recommend going to as many games as possible. Time files; I've gone my whole adult life without a home team, and visiting other stadiums does not fill that void.

    This stadium is my second home. Glad people aren't deterred by the bad press the old barn gets.

    Hey Mr Woo, I’ve been going to A’s games and Raider games at the Coliseum for 50 yrs. Lots of history there and it may not be as luxurious as other stadiums, but our teams kicked a lot of ass there!

    Doesn’t seem as bad as everyone thinks it’s unique and had history to go along with it always love your videos

    Glad you got to experience the coliseum. It’s a blast whenever you go, but with 20k + fans it’s amazing. Most people are friendly. Hope to see you when you come visit once the new OAKLAND stadium is built.

That hot dog guy was hilarious. That stadium looks so ginormousl - unique - classic - empty - with OpIvy in right field haha!.. What a great baseball experience.. It was awesome to watch buddy/ felt like I was there. You knotched another stadi. I hope the boys can do it again, tonight. RaysUp!
