<whispering>Pssst.  Hey, Angels: 2021 is your 61st season...

[LetsGoHalos 6]

That's a good looking patch. It's scary that I feel like 50 just passed a year or so ago. Time is definitely flying.

The Angels did a lot of cool stuff for the 50th in the stadium during games...

Hard to get excited about this one when we don't know if and when we'll be allowed in the stadium again.

Okay lets call it 60th* and 1/2.

2020 really wasn't the same as the previous 59.

And 75% of us won't be able to watch any of the games on TV.

what are "commemorative base jewels"?

FYI Trout will still be an Angel during the 69th anniversary.

Gold is better than that stupid silver they got going on.

Is the silver part of that LA branding Arte likes to do? Cuz it sucks

This is kind of depressing... the 50th seems super recent... and was still a great time to be a fan.

Man the last decade has been boring, aside from trout

I remember people calling the years from 2002-2009 the "golden age" of Angels baseball.  Good times.

gold is for the 50th anniversary.

the original color of their halo was silver, so i'm perfectly okay with it.

Their original logos starting from 1961 has the gold halo. It was more commonly used back in that day, but from a design standpoint I just think it pops much more. 

[True Grich 12,378]

Arte likes silver because he's used to finishing second... or worse.

I hate it when I sound Canadian.

Needs more red

A blast from the beginnings. 'Daddy Wags' Leon Wagner and Bo Belinsky. As eccentric a pair as you could hope to find on an expansion team. Made for great copy to distract from wins and losses.

Some more early Angel images. Belinsky with the dames, private side of Wagner, the fashion plate Buck Rodgers and other pix.
