WATCH OUT FOR EBASEBALLPARKS!!

This video was STOLEN from another YouTube User!

Hopefully, YouTube will get it back to the proper owner soon!

I am sorry that you feel this way. I AM A FAN WHO WAS AT THE GAME WITH MY FAMILY. I posted this video on my site on September 30, 2003. That is teh truth. I took this with my camera. I do not know why CHISEL93 claims that the copy he made was teh original. In fact the copy was 4 seconds shorter. CHISEL93 could never explain how or where I copied it, because I didn't.

This is a DIRECT robbery of a fan-made video, not my video!

This outfit had the original fan video yanked from YouTube and now is putting the exact same video on instead.

I'm a Phillies fan who attended this game as a guest of the Phillies organization, thanks to Larry Shenk, Vice President of Public Relations of the Phillies, due to my flying my Ashburn Stadium banner at 11 games in 2003.

The Phils had a 9-2 record when I flew that banner.

I am sorry that you feel this way. I took this video with my camera, sitting with my family on the 700 level. It has been on my web site since September 30th, 2003. That is the truth. CHISEL93 could never explain how I could have copied it from him. I asked CHIESEL93 to acknowledge the true source, but CHISEL93 refused; that is when I asked You Tube to get involved and take his copy of my video off the site.

[AshburnStadium]

Please accept my apologies!

I thought you were some corporate entity that is in league with Major League Baseball, and thought that you would have probably used the statement that fans with cameras can't share video with other fans due to MLB copyright issues.

I was seated in Section 330, Row 13, Seat 15 for that game as a guest of the Phillies.

[ebaseballparks]

Thank you for your kind apology.

I wish that it had not come to this with CHIESEL93. I have never said no to anyone who wanted to use any of the videos or images on my site for themselves, and only asked that they identify the source.

I will be going to the last games in Shea and Yankee Stadiums where I will again tape the final 7th inning stretches.

Paul Richardson was among the top stadium organists in the major leagues. It's a shame that when the Phils moved to the new ballpark that they essentially put Paul to pasture.

Citizens Bank Park was built without an organist's booth, so Paul played on one of the stadium concourses and not during the game.

The Phils didn't renew his contract after the 2004 season. He passed away in 2006 from prostate cancer.

It is with great sadness that I report that the Phillies have lost their voice.

The beloved Hall of Fame announcer, Harry Kalas, died of a massive heart attack on Monday, April 13, 2009 at the age of 73 while preparing to broadcast a Phillies/Nationals game in Washington, DC.

@08WSChamps I feel ya man i grew up with Veterans Staduim too and even though most of philly hated i miss and love too

[08WSChamps]

Kalas's legendary peanut toss during the 7th inning stretch, i miss that so much. But weve been blessed with great memories at cb park, we're so lucky Harry was able to make his big world series call b4 he died and i was at the clincher, truly a memory ill never forget. this ballpark has become as much as a home to me as the vet was and is such a beautiful park. If all goes well we may be witnessing another parade on broad street, lets hope for the best...Go Phils!! long live harry & the vet!

[08WSChamps]

man i still miss the vet, all the memories as a kid, i know the phils were very bad throughout the 90s but started to pull things together in the vets final yrs.I just loved it b/c it was where i saw my 1st game and my dad and i went to so many. running up and down the ramps was soo much fun, the old speed pitch, and old chickies and petes. Former late umpire Eric Gregg actually worked at chicks and petes for a while he was a very nice guy, we spoke with him many times. and of course harry ..

Philadelphia closed The Vet better than the Yankees closed Yankee stadium.

@RickO4404 When Karl Wallenda did his high wire act for the second time at the Vet,Paul played:"You'll never walk alone"

@richardtheconquerer hahah. it was Philly's dump.haha

[richardtheconquerer]

Realistically speaking, this place was kinda crappy. However, I was 20 when they tore it down and as the first place I've seen a game, it was MY dump.
