I miss Ivor Wynne a lot, the stands were VERY close to the benches, and you could basically hear player conversations. Despite it being uncomfortable the sight lines were amazing for football.
Tim Hortons field is a huge upgrade for modern times. All the latest CFL stadiums are a huge upgrade. Montreal and Calgary need modern updated facilities.
Nice work, man! Texas Stadium was a fantastic place. Not a bad seat in that house. I have so many great memories and I'll always miss it. Btw the City of Irving is planning on turning the site into a modern living and shopping district. Parts left from Texas Stadium, like the gigantic railings from the old hole in the roof, are planned to be used as decor. That'll be a cool homage to, what was, a true House of Champions.
The megalomania that the Cowboys are known for became far worse after the move to AT&T. At least at the old place they backed up the talk for a long time. The stadium was truly beautiful and had great character
I'm Canadian. The only times I've ever heard fellow Canadians say "aboot" in my 52 years was during discussions about missing winter footwear. Having said that, I enjoy the channel. Perhaps you would consider a video about demolished major league hockey or basketball arenas. Keep up the good work.
You have to watch J.J. McCullough 's UA-cam channel. His Canadian (B.C.) pronunciations come out of nowhere and hit like a ton of bricks. He uses the "aboot" vowel in places you wouldn't expect, and it is all authentic.
You forgot Estadio Tecnológico in Monterrey (who hosted some matches of the World Cup in 1986), Floyd Casey Stadium in Waco, Ali Sami Yen Stadium in Istanbul, Stadio Comunale Sant'Elia in Cagliari (who hosted some matches of the World Cup in 1990), Canad Inns Stadium in Winnipeg, and a couple of more. And yes, I did my research.
While Tim Hortons' Field was under construction, the Ti-Cats had to play a couple of seasons at the University of Guelph stadium, which is about 50km from Hamilton. I guess they couldn't find a suitable temporary home that was closer.
Great video. Not sure if you would consider Daytona International Speedway. They tore down and replaced their grandstands in the 2010s. I went there in 2008. They basically had folding chairs for seating. The new grandstands looks quite nicer.
Should you ever consider doing more of these stadiums, you might consider adding Steaua stadium in Bucharest to the list. It hosted 3 European Champions Cup semifinals in the late 80s and was the host of most Romanian national team matches in the 90s and into the 2000s. It was opened in 1974 and demolished in 2018 to make room for a new stadium that was opened this year.
1:04 The old 'Cardinals Stadium' was attached to the Kentucky State Fair expo center. The Freedom Hall arena seen here (mid-right) from 1956-2010 had been home of U of Louisville basketball too.
Maybe in your next video, you can feature some of the stadiums that were demolished in the 2000teens , one in particular, the Memorial Sports Arena in Los Angeles. The Sports Arena was where the Clippers played before they moved and began sharing the Staples Center with the Lakers and USC Trojans basketball team since the University is right across the street. The Arena that the Lakers played in during the Showtime years , ie when Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabar , James Worthy etc played in the 80s the Forum ( then the Great Western Forum) in Inglewood is still very much in existence and was totally redone in 2014I . I believe Sports Arena was built for the 1932 Summer Olympic Games and held event for the 1984 summer games, it and was on the same suite as the Coliseum. The Sports Arena also was where John F. Kennedy accepted the Democratic nomination for President in 1960. The MLS stadium 🏟️ Banc of California Stadium is where the SA was. The BOC Arena was built in 2017.
Don't know if this has been done, but maybe a video of teams, college or professional, that need or could use a new stadium due to age, capacity, etc. (Example- Aloha stadium)
Most of these stadiums are better off demolished apart from the cowboys stadiums (Dallas) that one looks good even by today standards but since their new home is one of the Top 5 best stadiums in the world, no one would miss it

Ivor Wynne was like a blue collar Wrigley Field

I think you can make a video covering all the NEW stadiums built in the 2010s. Anyways, great video.
Cheers!

Thanks for finally remembering your Commonwealth cousins Canada.😎

My favorite part of the Old Mosaic Stadium was the one corner of the one stand that was cut off due to a road being right there
Love Your Videos 💝💝💝💝

Great vid
At the risk of being pedantic, it's pronounced "eye-vor winn". Long I. If you are from Hamilton and I am wrong, let me know.
Texas Stadium's roof earned it the nickname of the "Toilet Bowl" among fans of rival teams.
Floyd Casey Stadium was demolished in 2016.
Song?

Plz do The danish superliga

I guess they'll demolish the emirates once arsenal is playing in a paddock in div 5 in a few years...
Why is there a hole in the roof of the Cowboys' Stadium? So God can watch his team play. Cowboys fans are insufferable.
Because it cant hold/support it too much so yeah

The Lord saw Terrell Owens beating his team
