SOUTH SIDE DIAMOND | Guaranteed Rate Field 

I wouldn't say the city didn't care in 2005 the celebration was estimated to have hosted over 2.5million people

Do your homework before your next attempt at a video.

It's pronounced Veck(Bill Veeck). The seats were not painted green, the blue ones were removed and replaced by newer green seats.

I had a blast at that ballpark. We went when they played our Rangers, it was a great series

Ebbett's Field, Candlestick Park, Sportsman's Park, Crosley Field, Polo Grounds.... I guess all the great classy names are used up. They sure hit a home run with Guaranteed Rate Park! How about Prime Rate Park, Foreclosure Field, Sub-prime Stadium 😂

U forgot to mention the upgrade of the jumbotron and pinwheels. Other than that, great video! I learned a lot

Why does this ballpark get so much hate? Visually it looks similar to New Yankees stadium....

veeck as in wreck....not veek

Appearently it was more important for the owner to have the park built with its entrance towards the highway than to provide fans with a skyline view.

When you have a jewel like Wrigley Field, Low Interest Rate Field is just blah. It has a parking lot and not too crowded and fireworks. That's about it

Weez keeps its hundo to the onedo that’s what’s ups make seven up yours

Terrible neighborhood! Mediocre park.

I'm 100% a SouthSide Sox fan..I live in northern Indiana, but not all that far from the field..I eat breath sleep MLB Baseball..no matter how bad or how good the SOX are..I F-NG love the SOX

His name was Bill Veeck as in WRECK, not "VEEK". My goodness. You should have known this.

Are you watching this Oakland?

i grew up in this park i went for years with my dad we had a long opening day attendance streak we try to go twice a year now

Tusing state funds for sports is foolish

Reinsorf used his political connections to get a tax passed to fund his new stadium, then after the stadium was built and got bad reviews, the state spent millions of more tax dollars making renovations lmao.

Go Chicago White Sox Gaurenteed Rate Field is such a wonderful venue!

I got to go there during its first season. I liked the ballpark then. In some cases, the changes have been good, but I like the original configuration the best. It's still the only big-league I have been in outside of Detroit.

United center vid would be niceeee

Just found this channel and I immediately subscribed. Great content awesome videos keep up the amazing work my guy.

not a good seat outside of halfway up the baselines but still better than going to the tourist trap and Clark and Addison.

Veeck is pronounce Vek. The stadium opened un 1991 with a capacity of 44,000. And the Sox wasn't always 2nd fiddle to the Cubs. They out drew the Cubs from 1950 to 1992. Also thr 2005 title had everybody in the Chicago area excited. Almost 4 million people were at the celebration in downtown Chicago. Only half of the Chicago area baseball fans like the Cubs I've been a fan of the Sox since 1972.

Reinsdorf totally went against the recommendations of HOK, the architects. GRF is the result. Not bad, but could have been better. Much better.

Do comerica park

Where the Sox at in the intro

It really should just be torn down snd rebuilt from scratch. One of the best ballparks opened just a year later in Baltimore and immediately made this place look outdated.

The wrong way stadium.

Need to blow this place up and build a new stadium where they should of in the first place, on Roosevelt. Should have kept comiskey just like the crappy Cubs did with their dump.

Before it went “retro” the park reminded me of Kaufman Stadium in KC. As much I loved the Sox, they should have moved to Florida or Denver when they had a chance.
