It tells the story of a group of young baseball players during the summer of 1962. It stars Tom Guiry, Mike Vitar, Karen Allen, Denis Leary, and James Earl Jones. The movie is set in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, CA and the filming locations were in Midvale, Salt Lake City, and Ogden, Utah. It grossed $34 million worldwide and has since become a cult film.

    I'm human and definitely make mistakes. When I've been editing for 4 days straight, my brain really starts to fry. Sorry that I messed up one of the lines. Hopefully, you can enjoy the rest of the video. I believe I was trying to say the sultan of swing... Either way, I got the line wrong.

    I was ten when my mom took me to see Sandlot. One of those movies that's instantly ingrained in your head and never leaves. Brings my youth back whenever I watch it. Very powerful. If only they still made movies this good.

    One day I was at work, replacing the windows of the house mentioned at 14:02 and the area felt really familiar. I took a break and walked to the baseball field and instantly knew where I remembered it from. In fact, at the time, they still had part of the sign on the centerfield fence that says “Rose Park Boys”. The “boys” part had been taken down. The Sandlot crew handily beat the snobby Rose Park Boys.

    It's too bad the Sandlot is so closed in and the owner doesn't like people seeing it up close. Such a classic film that was part of so many childhoods. If I owned that field, everyone would be welcome!

    The carnival scene was actually shot in Robinson Park in American Fork Utah. Just a half block away from the church featured in the original "Footloose" movie. The park is still there and there is an annual carnival each summer. It also has a tie to Ted Bundy. There is confusion but either his victim was headed to the park or had just walked through the park when he picked her up. The pastor's house in Footloose was kiddy corner from the park but has been torn down.

    I had no idea the Sandlot was filmed in Salt Lake City. I lived in the area for a few years when one of the companies I worked for transferred me there (and then a year later closed their doors), and I am familiar with most of those locations (especially the retail area in Midvale). While it will be sad to see some of the landmarks of the movie get changed, that area desperately needs some revitalization.
