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!

Been waiting for this, which is somewhat ridiculous since I live here and I know what our stadiums, at least the big ones, look like already. It's a little like excitedly opening your school yearbook to look for your own picture. Anyway, here we go... (Edit: I just want to point out the Harlem River is not man-made as a whole. Only the very northern part of it where it meets the Hudson River, adjacent to Columbia's Wien Stadium and also known by its Dutch name Spuyten Duyvil, was rerouted in the 19th century to make it friendlier to shipping. The legal boundaries of Manhattan were defined when the Harlem River still followed its natural course in that area, so there is a small area of what now appears to be the Bronx because it's now on the opposite side of the river, called Marble Hill, that is legally part of Manhattan)

The New Jersey Jackals’ new home after they moved out of Yogi Berra Stadium is actually Hinchliffe Stadium. The stadium has gone through extensive renovations and like Yogi Berra will also feature a small museum this time about the history of Hinchliffe. In the same structure will house a concession area and a few other possible goodies. I’m glad that they revived an old stadium that was falling apart and would almost become a relic of history, but the Jackals and the people of Paterson were able to save it. The only complaint I’ll make is that the stadium doesn’t really look like it would be suitable for baseball, but however they can make it work.

The NY Islanders actually left Nassau Coliseum in 2015 to play in Barclays Center. The layout for hockey was totally unsuitable, as it meant the scoreboard was actually not over center ice, and many fans from Long Island didn’t follow the team to Brooklyn. The Islanders returned to Nassau Coliseum to split their home games between there and Barclays Center in 2018. The Islanders quit Barclays for good in the 2020-21 season while the new UBS Arena at nearby Belmont Park was finished.

Interesting that you included Wall Stadium Speedway since well, it kinda isn't a stadium. But I guess with its name, it popped up on results on Google? In any way, there's a ton of other short track speedways around New York, or the USA in general. There's so, so many of them, it's insane. Speedways are kind of the stadiums of motorsports, as they are made so you can see all the action and don't have to rely on video screens to see everything like on most normal circuits. So there's an argument to be made that they kind of count like stadiums There's also this weird motorcycle sport called Speedway, popular in parts of Europe, especially Poland. It's a short dirt oval, where teams compete head-to-head against each other and score points, meaning that the championship in that more works like a normal football championship. There's entire stadiums for those, which honestly on first look, seem more like football stadiums, but they aren't. Take a look at Motoarena Torun, Lodz, Gorzow. They're basically all stadiums, but then for motorsports

Hinchcliffe was an absolute nightmare. Hated going to Eastside.
Delighted to see you included Hinchliffe Stadium. Played b-ball there in the 60's for the Paterson city leagues and Kennedy HS. Thanksgiving Day between Central (later Kennedy) and Eastside High School was a major event at this venue.
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.

Patriots Stadium is where Monty Brewster pitched against the Yankees for the Hackensack Bulls in Brewster's Millions. Nice to see the train tracks don't go through the outfield anymore.
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.

Been waiting for this, which is somewhat ridiculous since I live here and I know what our stadiums, at least the big ones, look like already. It's a little like excitedly opening your school yearbook to look for your own picture. Anyway, here we go... (Edit: I just want to point out the Harlem River is not man-made as a whole. Only the very northern part of it where it meets the Hudson River, adjacent to Columbia's Wien Stadium and also known by its Dutch name Spuyten Duyvil, was rerouted in the 19th century to make it friendlier to shipping. The legal boundaries of Manhattan were defined when the Harlem River still followed its natural course in that area, so there is a small area of what now appears to be the Bronx because it's now on the opposite side of the river, called Marble Hill, that is legally part of Manhattan)

The New Jersey Jackals’ new home after they moved out of Yogi Berra Stadium is actually Hinchliffe Stadium. The stadium has gone through extensive renovations and like Yogi Berra will also feature a small museum this time about the history of Hinchliffe. In the same structure will house a concession area and a few other possible goodies. I’m glad that they revived an old stadium that was falling apart and would almost become a relic of history, but the Jackals and the people of Paterson were able to save it. The only complaint I’ll make is that the stadium doesn’t really look like it would be suitable for baseball, but however they can make it work.
Kind of wild to see you down in Aussie showing off my hometown stadiums. Cheers! 🍻
I think a video about the various stadiums in San Diego would be really cool. There's one college who has a baseball field with an ocean view 😎

Interesting/ useless fact about Barclay is that Bankers Steel of Lynchburg VA supplied most if not all of the steel used to construct the arena.
This is making me feel old. I was attending Stony Brook University when the new stadium opened and its been 20 years...
I bloody love your videos. 😃
The NY Islanders actually left Nassau Coliseum in 2015 to play in Barclays Center. The layout for hockey was totally unsuitable, as it meant the scoreboard was actually not over center ice, and many fans from Long Island didn’t follow the team to Brooklyn. The Islanders returned to Nassau Coliseum to split their home games between there and Barclays Center in 2018. The Islanders quit Barclays for good in the 2020-21 season while the new UBS Arena at nearby Belmont Park was finished.

Yeah, my school's stadium was nowhere near the cutoff point, I have to admit. I think we estimated that at WT Clarke High School, my alma mater and Chuck D's, Rams Stadium (Now Coach Jack Boyle Memorial Stadium) had a capacity of about 1500, and no lights. I've heard they're looking at turf at least, to save on the upkeep costs (which would help, there was gravel kicking up when I was _marching_ on the field with my French horn, to say nothing of the football team).
Fun fact about Meadowlands Arena and the Prudential Center. The Metropolitan Riveters are moving from The Prudential Center's practice arena (they didn't play in the actual arena) to the American Dream Ice Rink in the Meadowlands Complex. Right next to the Meadowlands Arena. Which used to host hockey. Why the Mall didn't use the Arena for their hockey rink, and why the Riveters are playing in the Mall and not the Arena, I have no idea

No gaelic park ,the Gaelic Athletic stadium in NY.The cut off is 5000 ,yes the stated capacity is 2000 in wikepedia however last week there was 9000 there
MSG also has a train station in the basement, Penn Station is the busiest transportation hub in the western hemisphere. Or maybe more accurately Penn Station got an arena on the roof.

Disappointed you didn’t include two hockey venues in Nee Jersey: Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City (might be in Philly metro technically but it’s halfway between) is a 10,000 seater art deco style built in 1929 and also hosts the Miss America pageant. Baker Rink at Princeton only holds 2,100 but I believe is the 2nd oldest hockey arena in the world still in use today. I played there a few times in high school and has the best ice I’ve ever skated on.

Interesting that you included Wall Stadium Speedway since well, it kinda isn't a stadium. But I guess with its name, it popped up on results on Google? In any way, there's a ton of other short track speedways around New York, or the USA in general. There's so, so many of them, it's insane. Speedways are kind of the stadiums of motorsports, as they are made so you can see all the action and don't have to rely on video screens to see everything like on most normal circuits. So there's an argument to be made that they kind of count like stadiums There's also this weird motorcycle sport called Speedway, popular in parts of Europe, especially Poland. It's a short dirt oval, where teams compete head-to-head against each other and score points, meaning that the championship in that more works like a normal football championship. There's entire stadiums for those, which honestly on first look, seem more like football stadiums, but they aren't. Take a look at Motoarena Torun, Lodz, Gorzow. They're basically all stadiums, but then for motorsports
