We showcase the stadiums and arenas of the New York Metro Area. We have set a capacity cut off point of 10 000 for American Football and 5 000 for everything else. Thanks for watching!

    Citi Field’s home run apple is a tradition that they carried over from Shea Stadium
  • OMG I am honored! My photo of Prudential Center was used! I posted my photo to wikipedia with the CC SA 4.0! I am Andrew nyr! :)

    Hinchcliffe Stadium in Paterson, NJ is in the process of being renovated to host the Indy League New Jersey Jackals. The Jackals announced their move to Paterson last week and the venue will still be used by the Paterson school system.
  • 20:20 The census bureau actually does consider Trenton/Princeton its own separate metropolitan area. What you're probably looking at is New York's combined statistical area (CSA), which is a census grouping that adds a few cities that, despite being their own metro area, are nonetheless economically or culturally linked to New York. I agree with including Trenton in the video for completion's sake, though. It's nice to see a beautiful ballpark get a spotlight!

    What makes Hinchcliffe Stadium historic is that it was home to the New York Black Yankees and the New York Cubans of the Negro National League.
  • Surprised he didn’t include Belmont Park. The horse track is massive
  • 12:20 The New York Mets should have their own retractable Ballpark in Brooklyn, New York right next to Barclays Center
  • @TCarlin3
    FYI Hinchcliffe Stadium will be back in use next year; the MiLB New Jersey Jackals will play there next season...

    Icahn Stadium is built on the old Downing Stadium that was once home to the New York Cosmos when Pele played there in the 1970's.
  • @santanders865
    the subtle comedy is a great addition to these videos
  • Michie Stadium at West Point is closer to NYC then some of the others. Plus it is very historic and iconic.
  • @mmtoss6530
    Citi Field is top notch (saying this as a Yankees fan).
  • @AC3FACE
    Nassau Coliseum "is still a top notch venue." Bless your heart.
  • 14:24 - 14:50: Fans of Wes Anderson's films might be familiar with Forest Hills Stadium. A few scenes for his 2001 THE ROYAL TENNANBAUMS were shot there. Probably the funniest is when Gene Hackman is driving around the stadium in a go-cart!

    Before Arthur Ashe Stadium Louis Armstrong Arena was the main venue for the US Open
  • @dennisud
    Nice job! I can't wait for more megacities with their stadiums and arenas we can see here!!
  • I've been to one game at Yankees Stadium and half a dozen Devils games and two concerts at Prudential Center. I've driven past Rutgers' football stadium many times since I live in New Brunswick.
  • I understand the need for the attendance cutoff, but it would've been nice to see Fordham's Rose Hill Gymnasium on this list. It's one of the oldest arenas, if not the oldest, in all of NCAA Division I basketball (built in 1925). It's also a pretty nice-looking building, particularly the exterior.

    Very informative video with great arial photography. My only wish is that you added the city/town of each facility. Many of us in the NYC metro area are not familiar with more than a few of these stadiums/arenas. Thanks for posting.

    For the last two years, the County Center has been used as a vaccination site for COVID, and therefore, the WC Knicks moved to Webster Bank Arena, as you've noted. I had season tickets to the first year of the Westchetser Knicks in 2014, went to a ton of high school games there, and also got my COVID vaccine there, which is pretty cool.
