  • Brings back so many good memories when I was a young kid sitting in the bleachers. Rusty Staub, Ron Hunt, Ron Fairly, Coco Laboy, John Boccabella.....

    That was a time when Montreal was TRULY a sports town. Which is not the case anymore. Montreal is now known as a ONE SPORT TOWN....THE HABS and nothing else!

  • Brings tears to my eyes.

  • @fringbenefit The pool was in right field.

  • I wonder if Montreal Fans will ever get a baseball team again....i know who if they build a 43,000 seat park like Miami did... And if Tampa bay fans will not support Rays then they move to Quebec in canada in 2015! Anyone care tell if any in montreal still wants a MLB team still

  • @Cheessa What a great place to watch a game, too. Dad & I would sit in the bleachers in Jonesville. Last game at Jarry Park was in 1976 for me.  I had moved to Maine in late 1973.

  • JOHN BOC-CA-BELLLLLLLLLLLLLLA

  • Thanks for posting this! What memories! VIvidly remember the park, the music and that scoreboard....

  • I hear this song...I close my eyes...I'm at Jarry Park again...

  • @gakski I was wrong about them playing the song at the Astrodome. But I do remember it being played in the background, probably during radio and TV broadcasts between the Astros and Expos. That was back in the early and mid '70s. I grew up an Astros fan in south Louisiana and a lot of my Acadian ancestors came to Louisiana from Quebec in the 1700s. I probably would have grown up an Expos fan going to games at Park Jarry and Olympic Stadium if not for those long ago French/British wars....LOL

    The name of the song is "Les Expos Sont La" (The Expos are Here) by Marc Gelinas. It's also referred to as the "Expos Polka". Versions are in both French & English. Click on the right "Expos Parc Jarry" for the French version . I believe the CBC website archives has the Englis version.

  • I remember the cubs 3rd baseman Carmen Fanzone hit a homer into the pool in left field. A nice little ballpark.

  • I loved going to Jarry Park with Dad. I lived in St Albans growing up. No better place to watch a ball game.
