  • why, why, why

  • Why build a stadium for a team that is so bad that probably destroy that stadium ?

  • The Orange Bowl is the site of the NCAA’s longest college football winning streak. Between 1985 and 1994, the University of Miami Hurricanes won 58 straight home games. The Miami Dolphins also set an NFL record for most consecutive home games won at the Orange Bowl, 31. How could this stadium be torn down?!

  • This is the stadium that made Doug Flutie a college football legend!!

  • The best stadium is Memorial Stadium in Lincoln Nebraska!!! GO BIG RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • =(..The Orange Bowl is in Miami,FL I went there for vacations and right now they are rebuilding it..But it hurts to see it getting destroyed..

  • This Hurts.....How many memories?

  • this is the worst video ever on YouTube.....watching the BEST FOOTBALL STADIUM EVER MADE torn down just kills me and everybody else that cares about the canes and college football...it is B S and every true canes fan will Agree with me

  • Just a slight correction, the best football stadium ever made is The Big House in Ann Arbor.

  • I thought this was going to be a vid on how the BCS has destroyed the Orange Bowl. There hasn't been a good one since 05-06 Penn St. vs Fla St. It's become the BCS leftover bowl. But yeah, the stadium needed to be destroyed.

  • i think they should've rebuilt th stadium, and made it a larger more durable estate for this time. not build a baseball stadium for a team tht sucks ass.

  • Is it true that the Orange Bowl was a great place to watch football ?

    And that it had become old and needed to much work to update ?

  • Then the claw thingy came up and open, It should've gone "RAWR" :l

  • i would pay to destroy that

  • destroying history

  • the site of the orange bowl falling was a more devastating image to me than the falling of the world trade center towers, it took me a long time to even care about college football after i saw that.

  • I would have purchased one of the bench seats... as a Nebraska fans there are so many memories from this particular stadium, both good and bad :)

  • saddest sight i ever seen, r.i.p ob

  • Groundbreaking on the Marlins new ballpark (same site) was last month!!!

  • cant believe this stadium got destroyed :( cool vid though

  • why destroying that place?

  • because the florida marlins wanted a new stadium and the orange bowl belonged to the city of miami not the university of miami and when it comes to political disputes like that the organization with the most money wins and one organization was a major league baseball team, the other was a small private school's football program who's bulk of money went directly to the school while the major league baseball franchise contributes money to the city in general, so the marlins won that battle easily

  • why would they build a new stadium for a team who sucks ass anyways?

  • for some reason when i saw those machines i was just like....TERMINATOR!!! Yeah, i'm lame. Kind of tired actually...

  • he/she is already dead.......wake up.......

  • Haha, Allah can suck my ballz...

  • Miami rules...

  • i wish i could say that to my gf..!!

    "its time for stage 2 ...the strip down " !

  • nasty

  • hahahahahaha

  • hopefully sparano can make new memories in dolphins stadium.

  • pisses me off.......

  • one month and thats it? better creating a tornado.

    lol ...it looks like mecha-2-headed hydra

  • the commentator is getting a hard-on just saying the machine names

    u can hear it

  • Yeah, I'm tired of over-dramatic announcers, too. Do we really need a tough-guy voice to clue us in about the tough-guy content? And what's up with the blinding white flashes on TV these days? Is this TV for the ADHD generation?

  • Short sighted to destroy the stadium.

  • Being from Miami, it saddens me that hey tore it down. Amazing stadium just not well maintained

  • Wow.... a show about tearing down a stadium...

    Couldn't they do the whole show in a 1 minute time-lapse segment?? It would be better that way.

  • Can't believe they tore-down the Orange Bowl. It should have been preserved as a state landmark.

  • Fuck the Marlins.

  • how about fuck you

  • idiots i'd keep it

  • the orange bowl could have been a money maker if it was well managed

  • So: Why are they destroying it? Did it have some structural failures or they just want to make a bigger stadium?

  • Oh, those crazy Americans.

    Glad i'm not one of you fucking Trampy broke Scum.

  • not all are crazy, there's crazy people all around the world.

  • I know, i have a lot of International friends... Sometimes I take the insulting a little too far for people i do not know though.

    Mostly Racists.

  • let me guess, you just hate somebody that lives on that trailer and you want him taken out

  • I was with you until you made your racist comments. What in the world does race or racial integration in sports have to do with demolishing old stadiums/corporate hijacking of sports franchises? Anyways... there was a recent ESPN article showing that teams with stadiums built since 1999 are performing far below their old stadium home records in the new stadiums. ESPN attributed this to all of the corporate seating/expensive season tickets being closer to the field, causing quieter home crowds.

  • it's been 3 days, I'm still alive, what now?

  • chuck norris dangling upside down from a crane would've done a better job using his teeth, what a load of muppets

  • Its weird to look at it from the highway today, i live in Miami

  • I know that they had put in a new scoreboard at the Orange Bowl...what are they going to do with it now?

    -response to koolaidolio

  • Severedgoldfish they recycle every thing they can for extra money. They will sell the concrete/bricks, the scrap metal they probably tried to find a buyer for the seats aswel.

    How long did it take for them to pull the whole building down?

  • Why did they tear it down?

  • I live 3 blocks from it. It's a sad site now, with only the fence, trees, and empty parking lot.

  • This looks like a job for the Robot and Keanu Reeves.

  • those things look like eating dinasaurs

  • lol@Cue the MEGA machines!

  • I think its cool how they're recycling everything. I'm kind of a hippie in that sense but itd be so wasteful to not.

  • yawn....

  • get a mini nuke would be faster :)

  • Hard to watch and so sad to see the OB destroyed...

  • Well at least they recycled.

  • pretty cool stuff .. that is absolutely beautiful :D

  • what are they going to built there.why they didn't left the stadium?why are they destroying it???

    Can somebody tell me???

    Please if you know post a comment!!!

  • they're making room for a retractable roof baseball stadium for the Marlins.

  • It is where the miami dolphins used to play, havent in like 15 yrs..um hurricanes played there, but not in 2 yrs. Stadium was very old, and not big. Its right smack downtown, and takes alot of space, and money to upkeep, so they knock down. Not sure if there are plans for the space. I went to Dolphis cames there in the 70's

  • They destroyed the stadium because they had no use for it anymore since the Hurricanes play at Dolphins Stadium (they werent just going to keep the OB becuase its histortic) Now they are planning to build a new 630 million dollar baseball stadium for the Florida Marlins. This will include parking garages. March 23, they will vote whether or not to approve and build the stadium, and which if it is approved it will break ground in the summer.

  • U R so Bad ! 4 something funny stupid & Fat. Search Tony Longo. Mob da best 1

  • why not just blast a bomb

  • there are homes right next to the bowl....i kno i live in miami :)

  • must be a hella fun job

  • man you gotta hate working in the field

  • hydraulics on those kind of machines scare the fuck outta me...

  • Its great to see they recycle most of the structure :) , that can go into building another great stadium.

  • many great memories GO CANES!!

  • I want a recycled part.

  • Shit, I could've gotten a few a few laborers and had all that aluminum gone in a day and that building down and out by the second week... those fools are just milking it!

  • thats how they make money, the longer it takes them the more "overtime" they get.

  • Or they do their job right and take their time so nothing goes wrong and no one gets hurt.

  • Thank god this stadium is going. If only they could keep the 'Canes in it when it goes...

  • No BOOM!?

  • why r they destroying it?

  • 'cause nobody needs it anymore and with ALL THAT metal.. don't know recycling

  • I think the Marlins stadium is supposed to replace the orange bowl. right?

  • is this in miami?

  • I bet you could pay some crackheads to do it for much cheaper.

  • I was hoping for explosives... I wouldn't want to get pinched by the Mammoth machine.

  • thier luckie i want 2 that

  • I wanna CAT320!!!!!

  • i want one of those big shredder things for my birthday!

  • OMG

  • LOL

  • Esas poderosas maquinas no deberan ser usadas en esta epoca de CRISIS, lo mejor seria emplear a obreros desempleados.

  • hurricane Ike could do more dmg

  • this is what we need to with EVERY useless structure. we're getting to the point in our history where we forget the important of recycling.

    As long as the recycled steel isn't going to build MORE stupid shit, we'll be making progress.

  • babby brother? hahaz the cat! why not use a dynamite it will be faster and cooler! loLZ

  • pieces could get everywhere and crush houses

  • Dear JohnEko,

    I have some depressing news. Your mother was fucked by a black guy yesterday. I suggest you talk to your mother about the guy who gave her this fucking and track him down if you don't like what occured.
