The guy who parachuted into Shea is a great friend. Spent 6 months in prison instead of ratting out his buddy who would’ve no doubt got a much larger sentence.
We know it was you who flew the plane, but we won’t tell anyone, don’t you worry
Seems like your friend could have told the authorities that he intentionally didn't get the pilot's name or know who he was, and that it was arranged on his behalf so that he couldn't turn the pilot in later.
jail*
@@SomebodyPickaNamethey could care less about WHY you won't cooperate...
@@AustinMcAndrewright lmao, as if “no officer I intentionally ignored the evidence I saw so I wouldn’t have to tell you” would’ve got him off easier
I'm surprised you didn't mention that this season a Rockies/Orioles game was delayed by a swarm of bees getting on the field and needing to be relocated.
That happened at a Jays game too. i cant remember where it was, but i think the home team wore red.
he shows the clip at 0:28 not sure why he didnt mention it
Oddly enough that's not exactly that rare of a occurrence. I've seen it ad least 3 times not counting the game you're referring to.
@@pezjerk6334but that’s not Rockies orioles. That happened in spring training a few years ago.
I remember the Yankees/Indians game with a swarm of bugs. Wasn’t too long ago. If I remember correctly, Joba Chamberlain was pitching.
"Unfortunately, reports say he was caught."
Damn that's disappointing, his escape was pretty impressive.
the authorities are never going to admit the guy got away
@@notarabbit1752 I was thinking the same thing.
Honestly that should have been covered by the rule of cool 😅. Like he didn’t do anything bad, just was having a bit too much fun
15:35 Up to that point, the Marlins had a graphic that said “It’s been XXX days since the last Marlins Home Rain Delay”. The Marlins stopped showing or announcing this graphic after this Rain Delay, and never did it again.
lol
imagine being in the batters box and seeing the pitcher release the ball then the lights go out 💀
Id imagine you couldn't see 😂
Check out the story of "The Homer in the Gloamin'".
What about the catcher….
Angel Hernandez would still give a call anyway 😆 No difference, he can't see in the first place
@@karmacomments He's got more protective gear than the batter lol
Caldwell also pitched a no hitter like 10 days after being struck by lightning!
How did he live???
@@natefetherston9055A lot of people do. Definitely helps that lighting strikes happen for .5 seconds.
Bring it on, Zeus. *Lightning only makes him stronger.*
Shocking!
Sorry...
@@Icanthearyou202 correct. the world record is 7 survived strikes over a lifetime. the person it happened to only died due to committing unalive.
You call them delays, I call them primetime TV
Was there for the fish delay, probably one of the most traumatizing. Lucky I survived
Hero.
No PTFD
Damn😂
The one that fell from the sky? Did they say where it came from?
@@DJShire_ATL Yeah, the sky
We ALL love Baseball Doesnt Exist❤⚾️⚾️
Agreed
100%
Absolutely 👍🏻
crazy how he can show us so much stuff about something that doesn’t exist
True
I like how I'm watching this during a rain delay at Wrigley Field 💀
"Is it a bird?"
"Is it a plane?"
"No, it's a dead fish!"
HAHA I was at that Pickles game! We've really made it now!!!
The lights didn't just randomly go out. The park district owns Walker Stadium and usually shuts off the lights at midnight. This night, the game went 12 and they agreed to an extension of 12:15. At 12:15 and one second, boom, lights out, ballgame made up a month later. Go Pickles!
was the pitch thrown, or did he stop in time? I'm just imagining it hitting someone because they couldn't see it
Bruh the announcer’s scream
@@joeg5414 Thrown, called a ball
The announcers reaction when the lights went out had me rolling. 😂
There was once a baseball game called on account of volcano. The Spokane Indians (at the time the AAA affiliate of the Seattle Mariners) had a game that got canceled as a result of ash from the the Mount St. Helens eruption.
That was in 1980, correct?
The clearing of the stands into dugout and clubhouse levels for a tornado siren is not a response out of panic. It was the planned safey procedure and is a pretty good plan. Obviously, fans are free to leave if they want but providing shelter underground is probably your safest bet. Barring a worst case scenario (in which theres no way to survive conditions), sheltering under ground level will be your best option to survive. Kudos to those employees and fans acting calm under pressure with a literal siren blaring at them!
Now I'm trying to find what game it was though, since I remember a vid of the Cubs having a warning, as well as the Rockies having an actual tornado near Coors mentioned on the radio broadcast, though there's a great vid about tornadoes and stadiums, I forget who it is buy but it mentions the Birmingham Barons and how close they came to being hit. Not baseball but the same happened to Iowa State and their CFB team delaying a game vs Colorado. OTOH, you got the famous footage of Oklahoma State's kicker being all nah, screw your quake, gonna just kick this FG...
@jacekatalakis8316 I believe it was the White Sox - Rangers game late May 2011. All the articles I can find covering it are dated May 24th, 2011 so it had to be no later than May 23rd. The late 2011 super outbreak of tornadic activity in the Texas/Oklahoma/Missouri area was no joke. Glad the stadium in Arlington (Dallas-Fort worth metro) area wasn't hit by that storm. Looks like it did a lot of damage to other communities. Hope this info helps!
@@jacekatalakis8316another weird instance was a playoff college basketball game in Atlanta and was hit by a tornado. Thankfully minimal damage and loss of life occurred in the city and surrounding area. I believe that game went into overtime which prevented a lot of people leaving to walk back to their vehicles when the tornado hit. Can't remember the year but downtown Atlanta doesn't get hit by tornados often so it should be easy to track down
This man gives so much information in a video it's crazy and this man needs the credit
And HALF of its BULLSH**!
@@RansomRambula-no6yo weres the facts
During the 2017 total solar eclipse, a number of minor-league games were specially scheduled to coincide with the eclipse and so had the first-ever eclipse delays.
lol
Taking photos with a fire as a joke is the most braves thing ever
Those photos should have been made into baseball cards.
@@felixmarvin1199 yeah
I’m really surprised you didn’t mention the bomb threat the twins had at the met in the 60s! Everyone was rushed onto the field but thankfully there was no bomb found
I was at a Mariners game years back where the power went out for 20-30 minutes. It was pretty spooky with all of us just sitting around in the dark.
It was a short delay, but I remember a bird getting obliterated as it flew in front of home plate. I also remember a swarm of bees causing a delay...
That was a Randy Johnson fastball that exploded the bird
@@malibu13203Classic Randy Johnson clip yeah
I yelled “BASEBALL DOESNT EXIST!” and my dad was like what? 😂
Did you show him the channel?
Did he think that baseball was banned in America so he was gonna live up in Canada?
I was working at a minor league game several years ago when the game was delayed after the visiting team manager gave away 3rd base to a fan in the middle of a game. It was his way of protesting a bad call by the ump.
These are the best ways to protest. Not nearly enough drama lmao
Rick Monday was playing for the Cubs when the flag burning incident took place.
I was hoping I wasn't the only one that remember that.
Also the video clearly shows he's wearing a Chicago uniform.
This is the comment I immediately came looking for.
Everyone laughed at the baseball team with a zamboni but he sure showed them
I believe Rick Monday played for the Cubs when he grab the flag off the field. He’s said many times afterwards he still has that flag.
Monday was with Cubs when the flag incident happened.
Kinda figured. My dad actually had (or still has; can’t rightly remember) a bobblehead of that moment Monday retrieved the flag.
One instance id like to mention- i think it was in the 80s, there was a postponed game at the astrodome. It rained so friggin hard no fans (and personnel) could get to the stadium, so the players and others who were there already, set up tables on the field and ate dinner.
Big if true
@ajkillabobjohnson I just looked it up, it was June 15th 1976 against the Pirates. I'm going to try linking but idk if it'll work
I remember a Mariners game where FOUR people ran onto the field
1 tried to shake Ichiro's hand and got tackled by a guy who didn't make the tryouts for the seahawks cause damn
DC two years ago, Nats vs Padres. A shooting took place right outside the stadium. Fans stampeded thinking it was inside. They delayed the game till the next day
Your inflections and storytelling has improved so much over the past two years, keep it up!
I was at the game when Judge was 1 away from 60. No one in the stadium wanted to believe the game would get cancelled, the delay started around around 9:20ish and people stayed till 11:30 till they called it off. I remember my stepdad trying to leave the whole time but me and my friends wouldn’t let him lol. They even started showing the SNF game between the Broncos and 49ers so people wouldn’t get bored.
The Lucas Sims thing reminded me of the back-and-forth between former Braves pitcher Al Hrabosky and umpire Bob Engel from a game in 1980, where Hrabosky and Engel kept throwing balls back and forth at each other. Coincidentally, Sims and Hrabosky wore the same number.
If he ever does another channel for another fictional sport wouldn't mind seeing a Hockey Doesn't Exist channel. These videos always seem to catch my interest and we would love to see him cover more interesting and unique stories from other fictional sports.
Regardless, Loving the content. You're making awesome work 👍
yeah i'd watch it, and I'm not a big hockey fan
I was at the Orioles game in 2003. I had season tickets on the club level that year and got to meet Maryland governor Robert Ehrlich during the snow delay.
Rick Monday was the Cubs center fielder at that point. He went to the Dodgers the next season.
Rick Monday was on the Cubs when he saved the flag. He later played for the Dodgers, and is still a broadcaster with them.
As a Canadian, 2 inches of snow is not a blizzard. A blizzard is when you get a foot of snow in a few hours.
a blizzard isn't about the amount of snow, it's about the direction it's going, snow going down is no blizzard, snow going sideways is a blizzard.
The fire in Atlanta was also Fred McGriff’s 1st game with the Braves. He had some injured ribs from a brawl that San Diego (the team he was traded from). The fire delayed the game enough so that he could get treatment and play. Then hit the game winning dinger.
They had a bobble head night commemorating it, this year on it’s 30th (??) anniversary.
The only baseball delay I was ever a part of was the last game that Chipper ever played: the infamous "Infield Fly Rule" game, pitting the Braves against the Cards in the 2012 WC Series. Trash RAINED upon the field. It was surreal. Cool video!
Baseball is crazy. I love it!
Maybe not so crazy, but the Pittsfield Suns have regular "sun delays". Their ballpark is the historic Wahconah Park, built in 1919. At this ballpark, the batter is facing due west. Back when baseball was a day game, there were no problems. But now that games are regularly played in the evening, they will have a 30-40 minute sundelay as the sun sets, to prevent blinding batters. This is, in other words, a guaranteed and predictable weather delay.
I'm all for freedom of speech but I cheered when the player saved the flag
I'm a Phillies fan, and even I will admit that the Mets guy is the most epic field entrance by a fan ever. It's really pathetic that he got 6 months in jail when the people who caused permanent damage to a coach's hearing got nothing....
4:15 as the ballboy of the miami marlins I gotta say it was probably one of the funniest things that had happened this season 😂
There was a game a few years ago at the Dome in Toronto. Roof was open, it started to rain, so they started closing the roof. The roof got jammed and couldn't close all the way, all the rain on the Dome poured into the field. They were able to get it closed and after a minor delay so the grounds crew could get rid of the puddles, the game continued.
Baseball is the most insane sport and you cannot convince me otherwise.
3:38 I would love to play a game of baseball in the snow. Not a blizzard, but just like enough where it’s there and a factor. I mean, Iceball is a thing up here in Minnesota.
I played football (soccer) on icy snow once. Me and my friends decided to never do that again.
You people are built different 😅
@@turbo8628It’s all that Viking blood we got in our genes
@@LateNightTableCo i'm caucasian blonde with blue eyes, and from the not so sunny north of england. I wouldn't survive a canadian winter 😅
4:07 Sorry, I’m a bit of a stickler for corrections, Monday was actually a Cub during the time, but later became a Dodger and won the World Series in 1981
Very well produced segment! Thanks!
A dead fish fell from the sky at recess for me lol
This video has me rolling omg it’s so good 😂 especially the fans running into the field
14:33 - My team as a kid - Gene Mauch, Bob Boone.....and no-neck Ken Kaiser behind the dish!
Mlb really needs to hire this guy, he makes baseball actually fun
But baseball doesn't exist
these videos read like they were written by AI
Emphasis on same points but I feel like it’s well done
How the hell a fish come from the sky
Occam's razor; I put my money on the bird theory.
You need a part 2 for this topic and include the day disco died at Comiskey park that turned into a riot on the field.
Gotta love that music he puts in the first part of every video, really gets me excited
Love the video... only thing about the American Flag segment was that year Rick Monday was the CF for the Cubs when he grabbed the flag.
4:00 A true patriot 🫡
Love this channel and your content!
Wait Rick Monday was not a dodger when it happened, he was with the Cubs playing the dodgers in LA when it happened.
spink-u-lar system made me laugh more then it should have xd
When I went to college, I worked for the athletic department which allowed me to travel with the baseball team. Two of the craziest things that happened were:
1. We were away at a D1 school more known for their academics than their athletics at the time (but have since become a baseball powerhouse.) It had rained all night and they were trying to dry the field off. They tried to pour gasoline on the infield dirt and rake it out after they set it on fire, but left the gas can in the middle of the field where they just lit the gas. Thankfully somebody grabbed it just before the fire reached it and an explosion happened.
2. Playing at home against another D1 team, but a storm came up after batting practice but before the game started. Because their team manager took off with the team bus, and a locker room wasn’t available, they were stuck staying in the dugout. A small tornado came through knocking down the outfield fence and several trees behind the outfield while all they could do was huddle in the dugout. Thankfully they were all ok..
Such a great video. Idk how you manage to come up with such unique video ideas
I don’t even LIKE baseball but I still pop off whenever I see BDE uploaded
Same 😅
Last season a Nationals home game was delayed after gunshots were heard outside the stadium. Like that one game in Texas, fans were put into the clubhouses just to be safe
Been waiting and waiting and waiting for this video.
Those college teams jousting on the back of players wearing catcher gear using a bat as the lance was hilarious
The intro theme to every Baseball Doesn't Exist video gives me an oddly nostalgic feeling. Doesn't remind me of anything really, just makes me feel like I'm 10 years old again.
Haha I have this exact same feeling.
We had a skunk come on the ball field not just once but twice this year during a game. They stopped play til the skunk left the field. Bad part was the Staduim is local on a Island in the middle of a river. It's the Home of the Double A farm team of the Nationals named the Harrisburg Senators
I was there for cowboy monkey rodeo night, one of the dogs the monkeys were riding pooped on the field and they delayed for like 5 minutes to go clean it up.
Can't wait to see Coney react to this 👀
The solution to fans rushing the field to attack coaches and players is simple. There are two dugouts full of both people who swing baseball bats for a living and baseball bats. Just employ said professional baseball players wielding baseball bats and put an end to the attack as soon as it starts. As soon as Giancarlo Stanton sends a big swing into the head of some dipshit who stormed the field and hit a coach or a player, nobody will ever storm the field again.
Needed one of these today. Thanks for all you do!
Man it’s a good day when this guy uploads ❤
Rick Monday was a Cub at the time
it was however in Dodger Stadium
That blizzard damn in Cleveland were made for perfect football!
"i bet i would've put on the boosters and batman'd into the night" absolute madlad lmfao
This video is amazing 😂
Not this video coming out on the same day that the Dodgers/Tigers had two delays.
1 because of a Goose &
2 because of a Giant Soap Bubble 😂
I really wish baseball existed
I remember the snow game. That was wild.
I used to play Old-Time Base Ball (yes , it's two words) using the 1861 original seventeen rules.NO GLOVES ! We wore period uniforms and had hand turned wood custom bats.
One of the best teams we played was in Greenfield Village in Dearborn (outside Detroit) . They had an actual steam train that ran around the Village & right past the ballfield. The custom was as the train went by it would slow down and blow it's whistle and the players and fans would doff their caps and wave to the passengers on the train. Okay - first time , fine . It was a novel thing . But over the course of the game this went on AT least a half a dozen times with the engineer starting a cheer for the home team (sponsored by the Village) . This got OLD - QUICK. Every other inning that damn train went by and stopped the game so the crowd could root against us.
I was at the Hendricks game went from top row right behind home plate to behind the sox dugout during the delay
1:35 Lights out. Literally.
I was at that Yankees game last year with the lightning, classing it as a core memory because the rain delay was more fun than the game.
17:00 The same thing happened in a 3-STORY CAR PARKING LOT 10 minutes from where I live. When the firefighters arrived they couldn't believe that there was no fire hose or fire extinguishers in an indoor car park, one vehicle that caught fire ended up burning more than 300 vehicles and causing the third floor to collapse.
Remember when the nets behind home plate fell down in the middle of the game in Philly a couple years ago
Greatest rain delay ever, at least according to a Cubs fan? WS Game 7, 2016. Who ever could have thought 15 minutes of rain could end 108 years of drought, eh?
I love this channel...
❤
Legit...
6:29 Stand up guy !! ✈️!
I love your videos man! I don’t watch baseball or really care about it but your vids are amazing n I love watching them! I really wish I could find someone like you for football 🏈 n even basketball. Hell I mean basically any sport I could watch you talk about even pillow fighting championships 😂 keep up the amazing work
Rick Monday was playing for the Cubs were playing at LA.
PETA's one to talk about animal well-being and safety
I agree, but in this case they were not completely wrong. That aquarium behind home plate really seems like a dumb idea.
imagine getting struck by lighting and then just a few minutes later say "man i wanna throw a complete game can i just get this out real quick?" and then plays on
Crazy edits for a sport that doesnt exist. Great work!
12:14 was one of the people promoting the movie smile!
Crazy this video dropped just before the bubble delay
13:42 XD Sims is a hero Holy wow
New BDE video!
I was at that Yankees game it was the ALDS game 5. They had us waiting till about 10 to reschedule the game till the next day.
Jail and prison are two totally different things.
