I've lived in L.A. for going on 40 years and have never,never, never been to the Rose Bowl flea market and now having seen it through the eyes of GiV I can honestly say I will probably give a pass on it for at least another 40 years. Some things are best laid to rest. But thanks to Mike for gutting it out for us.

I love picking at flee markets/ swapmeets/ tiangius but the rose bowl is a whole different ballpark. Don't go there looking for any sort of deal, its really only for the novelty of going there to be seen or for the movie studios to buy props.

$10/$20? 🤪 What a rip off! That's just greed, as im sure the sellers already pay for their pitch. I'd rather go to Goodwill, and save the money for a nice lunch.
You are such a polite gentleman, i.e. thanking everyone. It's so nice to see that kindness. Elvis! He ain't nothing but a hound dog. LOL :-)
You are now a celebrity, with folks clamoring to see you! You have charisma, and I really enjoy watching you! Danke Schoen! Thank you!

Because it's at the port area of cali. Lots of chinese and knockoff goods at flea markets but by cali its the hub of where they all start to get their chinese goods and knockoff ware brands. It all gets off the boat next to this flea market, then the resellers go early to snag all the wholesale deals to resell to others that come later. The owners know it is the hub of the grey market resellers.
@dertythegrower

Basically what I am saying is... all those resellers on ebay with Fike shoes (not Nike but N'ike, N!ke, and N1ke shoes) get their wares probably from the main people at this flea market in cali. The owners know people come to pay half price for fake shoes and hats, and resell it for profit, so they are making money off the 'early bird' people (people who want the resale deals before others)

Never land ranch statue, 🤣 Another fun awesome video from GiV
Thanks for the Rose Bowl flea market video!!! Awesome sight. Many more vendors than I thought would be there.
You're the man German In Venice! Much love from Utah
I'm here because of Bob Dingo and his KZread ch. as he suggested your channel. Good info & good videos here. Thumbs up.
Thanks for the walk ,I had a nice time Walking around with you 😃 I grew up in REDONDO BEACH, and That used to be called the swap meet!!!!
I wish your lovely mother Happy Mother Day
Methinks America charge an entry fee to scare off the "undesirables"...another great Vlog German in Venice...Thank you!
It's always nice to see all those old things in this modern world...They bring back good memories....
Shot the perfect booths. Love that you’re on this side of town. There’s so much history on the east side!
I helped decorate one of the floats for the Rose Bowl parade, back in 2006. It was a cool experience. I've never been to that flea market though. 🐰💜🇺🇲🎸🎶🤝✌
Thanks for doing this Mike. We love you. You are amazing, all the way from the UK
Thank you, Mike! Nostalgia, wow!!! The memories of some of those Snoopy and Charlie Brown dolls, metal lunchboxes, and boom boxes brings me back decades!
I love Pasadena...such a beautiful place! Thanks GIV!
i lived in altadena and pasadena for years. and i never made it to the rose bowl flea market. thank you for this!!!!

Love flea markets 💞 awesome video thankyou
When I lived in LA I furnished my entire house with vintage furniture purchased at area flea markets (no crappy new furniture manufactured with inferior materials). The few times I visited the Rose Bowl I quickly learned to shop "across the canal" first since this area had more "occasional sellers" and not professional dealers who charge prices comparable to an antique store. My recommendation, which may be outdated, would be to check out the monthly Long Beach Antique Show at Vets Stadium (entrance fee required), the weekly Golden West College swap meet in Huntington Beach (no entrance fee) or the weekly Cypress College swap meet in Cypress (no entrance fee). If you're ever in San Diego Kobey's swap meet is pretty good (small entrance fee).
You can always find alot of great history in these wonderful places.
That Alien Lego was dope! ❤️👏🏻 2:35

Nice walk around! I was *born* in Pasadena, and my mom's side of the family have been in Pasadena since something like the late 1800s. I still have an aunt (she must be in her 90s) living near Pasadena, and my mother's mother had a men's clothing store in Pasadena and I guess that's where she (my mother) met my dad. My mother also used to help make the floats for the Rose Parade, everything is made of flowers or other plant parts. But I've never been to the Rose Bowl! I knew a guy who told me he made part of his living going to to the Rose Bowl flea market and buying stuff to resell. My family left Pasadena when I was very little and moved out to Orange County on the coast. So it's really funny being born in Pasadena and not knowing the city at all.
I can't imagine spending 20$ for being early, I would think would be the other way around. It should 10$ for the early birds👍

It's because the best items are the first to be sold so the later you come the less deals to be had. Believe it or not but a lot of people make a living buying, restoring and then selling old items from flea markets / swap meets.

We really missed our local flea market last year. We only go once a year but we make a day of it with the family and you never know what you'll find, what you'll see, or what conversations you'll have with the vendors. It's a fun little fall tradition we really felt the loss of in '20. Hopefully we can go this fall again! But in the meantime, I enjoyed you showing us around this one, GiV. Good to see people out.
I'm glad you did it cause I don't feel like walking, I give you a 👍for this one.

I got to the Rose Bowl flea market at eleven o clock. I found a Slingerland tenor banjo that the instrument hawks missed. The pot and resonator were in good shape but the fret board and the skunk stripe were made with sap wood because it soaked up the black die so good but had to have rotted with in months of it being sold. Had to make a new neck, but I saved it from becoming a five string, which is what happens to most of these in the US.
Luv your Arnold Swarzenegger accent. On your next video, would love to hear you say "get to the chopper". All the best.
Now this is somewhere my wife and I will have to visit next time we're over - it looks rather fun :)
Cool I do love love love flea markets and garage sales it's so cool and so much fun
Ah! That old NES on the right looked to be in great condition. I would've bought that in a heartbeat. Plus the pistol!
I wouldnt mind spending 10.00. Ypu would pay that to go to a museum. This is like a museum. And so much art! I love antiques and oddities/curiosities. I would be in my element for sure. But not ready to be around that many people just yet. Plus im in Canada. But ty for the video!
Hello from Ireland
My wife and I loved this loved we watch till the end nice flea market day!
Now you see him, now you don’t. Great camouflage!
Thanks for this video on the Rose Bowl. I sold antiques there for almost 10 yrs. Then moved to the PNW 20 years ago. Haven’t been back since, so it was great to see the place. Back then, the entry fee cost $10 for early bird shoppers. The best stuff gets snapped up quickly so the $20 fee is worth it. Wish you had bought the US map or Michael Jackson picture. It’s fun scooping up something unique at the Rose Bowl.
Great clip, but where is GiV?! Can`t see this guy anywhere.
I enjoyed this video very much, Thanks
