What's going on with a new stadium?

[yk9001]

I haven't heard anything.

Are the Angels just going to stay on the current property past all of our deaths?

Yes.

LONG LIVE ANGEL STADIUM

LONG LIVE THE BIG A

[Taylor]

Next year they're lowering the yellow line on the RF fence so that it's level with the ground. Every ball hit off the RF wall will be a HR.

I'm fine with The Big A outlasting me.

[Angel Oracle]

Next site should be something like El Dorado Park in Long Beach.

[Mark68]

Or the Great Park in Irvine/former MCAS El Toro.

[yk9001]

Is Arte even alive?

[Taylor]

Remember when people thought Arte was going to move the team to Mexico? For some reason, the dudes who believed that always referred to him as "Arturo."

Or someone even mentioned at one time, on the old Tustin base

Somebody should do a shitty Photoshop of the field at Angels stadium with a yacht on it and a cutout of Moreno on the yacht.

Now you are just being lazy.

Back in 2016, Arte was all set to build new stadium on NW corner of the Tustin Air Base.  Environmental permits were quickly approved and all that needed was investors to build/develop the surrounding property.  Unfortunately, investors were not found so in 2017, Arte gave up and signed an extended lease with Anaheim (2029?) He has big plans for developing the parking lot but the city wants to see some improvements to the stadium. First he replaced all lights with LED lights (2017).Last year, he upgraded the sound system and video screens.

The California spectacular ?

You guys should be happy to be able to go to a game at the fourth oldest stadium in baseball. If only they hadn't upgraded it the stadium would be as iconic as Fenway Park or Wrigley before they put in the electronic scoreboard.

Arte will be 83 by then, so I doubt he'll ever move the team. His kids or new owners will have to figure it later...

Nah, just yours...they have patches ready to commemorate the event and everything

Here is the patch for the team to wear after I die.

[yk9001]

And then maybe on opening day, all angelswin.com members can stop in the middle of the fifth inning and hold up a sign similar to this, except it says, "I stand up for firefighter's pensions"

will Chuck be supplying the pink hats and ribbons?

how are you guys fine with the Big A? It's an embarrassment for a big market team and the city of Anaheim to still have that place as their stadium. Just go to San Diego for a game and then you can realize what a rat hole the Big A is. If the city and team can work together and do this right they can revitalize that whole area.

[eligrba4ever]

New stadium? The one in Inglewood is shaping up pretty nicely.

They are installing the framework for the retractable roof in Arlington and the seat lines are taking shape.

I don't think I've heard anything about any plans in St. Petersburg or San Leandro.

I've been to San Diego to watch the Padres lose on several occasions. Their stadium is great if you like to do stair climbing to a relatively sterile environment to watch a game. Good location, not bad getting in and out of the parking structure, the concessions are dull. I would be very dissapointed if the Angels were to spend all that money and end up with that design.
