- USA!! USA!! USA!! And the rest of the world actually.
I feel like I observed that Americans definitely CHEER more when celebrating, vs Europeans who tend to be more contemplative. Let me know what you think about this?

I didn’t mean to do 2 kinda serious ones in a row, but my reaction to A Christmas Story got claimed and I’m disputing that, so this was on standby 😬😬
I hope you get the claim resolved before Christmas.
@@Jeff_Lichtman me too! If not I’ll hold it till next Christmas 😂
CZcams blocked A Christmas Story? Ohhh fuuuudge!
@@darthken815 well technically, the production company who own the rights to distribution of the film claimed it
I hope to be able to see your reaction to A Christmas Story soon. It’s become one of my favorite holiday movies to watch every year. I especially love seeing people react to it. Hope ED doesn’t have to work overtime to get it unclaimed.
Oh man, I miss that America. We rarely see that kind of patriotic spirit anymore, that kind of unity and pride.
the radical right has hijacked the meaning of patriotic and really turned it sour
I miss it too. Trump has destroyed this country. When he came into office everything went to hell. It's so violent and hateful now.
Their has never been unity there are still some decent true Americans who are appalled by the mess we have created around the world may god have mercy on the people of this country because all those souls dead because of us won’t 😞
9/11/2001 was the day it all officially went to hell in this country, the government lies and propaganda has not let up on the people since...what ever did happen to we will be less oil dependent in the future...well the future is now and all I see is a government that loves to divide this country not unite it, no matter which so called party is in charge
@@fieldysgrl98 you might not have noticed but Biden has been President for a year now.... get over your butthurt about Trump and you might notice Biden has done more to hurt us than even Obama did in 8 years, and that is going some.
We Americans are extremely proud of our nation. I hope it doesn't appear like we don't also care for the rest of the world. 9/11 was an extremely heart breaking time for us. But to hear that news that day for me was a sigh of relief. Americans never say die and we never surrender. It's all in our national anthem.
Hooah
Well said

Thank you, brother!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank you!
God bless you brother
I’m sure the rest of the world was happy and relieved when he died. But for us that live in America it was very personal because he was responsible for the deaths of thousands of our people. That terrorist attack not only killed thousands of our people but it also traumatized millions more. I don’t think there was a person alive when it happened that didn’t have a little fear. Americans were afraid of what just happened to them and what could be coming next. We don’t like being afraid. So yes when we found out that he died our patriotic fervor was at an all-time high. And watching this clip and being reminded of that day I smiled. I smiled at the thought that the last thing that POS saw before he woke up in hell was the muzzle of an American’s gun. U. S. A.
well said
So you were told....
Apparently Training Osama as a Terrorist, to fight the Soviets was a bad idea?
Who would have thought that he would use that Training against America, the most Loved Country in America?
@@lokithecat7225yeah, who would have thunk it?
No. Americans weren't afraid of what was next. We were looking where to put the boot.
I'll never feel sorry when evil is taken out of this world.
I think Diane should watch Tobey Keith/Willie Nelson in "Beer For My Horses", even if she doesn't make a reaction video.

@@CaptainFrost32 don't you think Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue would be a good follow-up to this video?
@@edwardskeva9307 Both songs are worthy, but I know i had recommended The Angry American several times before. I figured the video would be worth her confusion. [I had been watching reactors who though it was a full movie.]
When obama said that he killed osama bin laden with all the other lies he spewed, I would take this with a grain of salt, and most importantly it was seal team six not obama that killed bin laden or a double of bin laden. Why did they throw bin laden over the side of a ship the very next day without doing an autopsy on him? This just doesn't pass the smell test to me!
Sameeee
Ms. Jennings:
We Americans suffer a justifiable amount of teasing for our lack of global perspective. We furthermore appreciate the fond wishes we received after 9/11. But the death of Osama bin Laden was our vindication, our moment, and our triumph. We are glad you appreciate it... But, in this case, we won't be sharing. That was definitely our night.
Osama Bin Laden didn’t kill only Americans on 9/11. More than 90 nations lost citizens on that day including Ireland.
Let’s try to remember that.
I could give 2 shits less about the rest of the worlds perspective on anything American.
@@michaelchmiel166 Your pride in your ignorance is simply incredible. So all of our Ambassadors are unnecessary and the entire State Department, CIA, NSA are a waste of time?
Respect for our allies is unnecessary? Even when we really need them to help us?
Like our troops embedding with The Northern Alliance in 2001? Being able to even go after Bin Laden because we had foreign intelligence and Pakistan looked the other way when the Seal Team went in.
Do you think our top secret agents don’t get help from other countries agents?
What about the Afghan family that saved Marcus Lutrell’s life after his Seal Team was taken out?
So much for YOUR Critical Thinking skills.
Your ignorance is staggering.
Maybe just try to pass your GED.
Amen!
@throwaway
If you don't understand the sentiment attached to a moment, whether it may be one of triumph or tragedy, there's very little I can do for you.
If you don't understand how one person may hijack or appropriate that sentiment which rightfully "belongs" (verb used metaphorically) to another, there's nothing at all which I might do for you.
As a Mets fan who lives near Philly, I can recall watching this game from home with Phillies fans and actually celebrating together. It was a special night that transcended sports.
I remember receiving the news of Osama's death on my graduation day of basic training. Our drill sergeants pulled us aside and gave us the news. It was quite the celebration.
I bet everyone marched at the graduation parade with heads held lock in step
Its crazy this was already 10 years ago. For a lot of us, it feels like the last time we were really unified as a country.
..do not succumb to those that divide us...mainly the media. The differences between us are not as great as we are being led to believe.
@@raymo6795 I completely agree and I suspect 80+% of Americans agree too! It's just frustrating watching the other 10-15% get the most clicks.
@@raymo6795 I agree 100%! I try to spread this message. We bicker like a dysfunctional family, but when an outside force threatens us... the giant is poked and rises! 😆🤗
@John Doe …We were “ unified “ for a week or 2 in September 2001.Ever since then, the media has sought to destroy, dismantle and discredit anything that is considered a traditional or conservative value. They no longer even pretend to be unbiased. Things that we used to call “ free speech”, is now called “hate speech “. If you make an observation concerning one’s race, you may be called “ racist “. If you believe that the only legitimate marriage is between a man or woman, you are called “ homophobic”..It has been said that “ Republicans often disagree with Democrats” but “Democrats think Republicans are evil” ( Charles Krauthammer)…These are some reasons why it is difficult to achieve “ unity”, and to some “compromise “ means the Republicans must compromise.
@John Doe …I have much more to say John Doe…I will quit while I’m ahead…Merry Christmas ✌️🇺🇸
The reason why this game in particular was significant in America was because it was nationally televised in prime time and not regionally televised like most baseball games are.
And in hindsight, both teams represented the areas effected(NYC, where the Pentagon is, and where flight 93 went down).
@@zandylovesrisk False, it was a Mets/Phillies game in Philadelphia. Philadelphia wasn't directly affected by any of the 9/11 attacks but because an New York team was in town, the emotions inside the ballpark went from Philly/NY 1st to USA 1st sort of feeling. Also, the Pentagon like the majority of major US federal government buildings is in DC, the 2 tallest buildings of the World Trade Center complex are the buildings that were hit in NYC that morning
@@stevenseelig945 Phiily is in Pa[flight #93], President Obama announced it from DC[pentagon] .NY wasn't the only place that was directly affected by this!
@@hermspahn Flight 93 crashed in Shanksville, PA which is in Somerset County just outside of Pittsburgh which is the other side of the state from Philly and left from Newark International Airport that morning and no passengers on Flight 93 had any association to the City of Philadelphia. We cheered that night because even though us Philly fans hate the Mets and NYC in general, 9/11 was an event that we put our rivalry aside and came together as Americans. Obviously NY wasn't the only place in the US 9/11 affected. 9/11 had a ripple effect on every city in the US and is the primary reason we have the Department of Homeland Security and is the obvious reason why we have to go through security at airports unlike we were able to before 9/11
@@hermspahn it's a bot. How do you not see that
Yes the rest of the world too but these two teams played in cities(NY)/states(Pennsylvania) directly affected by the terrorist attacks. The majority of people watching this game were from NY, PA and NJ so it was highly likely that there were a lot of relatives and friends of the victims watching the game. That's what made it so meaningful.
What a HUGE day this was. I remember seeing shirts with Bin Laden calling him the hide-and-seek champion of the world from 2001 to 2011 when he was killed. Seal Team 6 is now legendary because of it.
I was still in the Army when he was killed. It was an interesting day at work the next day. Everyone was glad he was dead but were a bit dismayed to find out he had been hiding in an "allied" country for a long time. Not cool Pakistan. Not cool.
They aren't our ally. Never have been. They get ransom payments from us in return for not being completely out of control and going to war with India and using nukes.
Thank you for your service!
Then, I don't in no way consider Pakistan our ally, CAN'T trust them anymore! They knew he was there!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for your service Sir!
Pakistan has been hiding and helping US enemies in Afghanistan for a long time. They'll always support their neighbors and kin against foreign invaders. That's why the War In Afghanistan was so ridiculous: we would have had to to cut off their mountainous escape routes and doing so would require declaring war on other countries like Pakistan. Essentially the Taliban couldn't win without going to and hiding in places where the US couldn't/wouldn't hurt them.
I was only months home from Afghanistan at this point and I CRIED like I havent before. As a Canadian even I felt the relief.
Too bad the Canadian military doesn’t do much anymore.
@@6ix540 at least the Canadian military was smart enough to keep out of Iraq.
Cmon 6ix.. no need for that. Canadiens are our brothers and sisters! We always got you Canada!!!!
It's a night I will never forget. I kept seeing on the news outlets that "a big story was breaking" during a commercial I turned on the baseball game and that was the first time I heard exactly what the news was. The USA chants across the nation give me chills to this day.
I remember hearing it on the radio, and instantly hearing car horns erupt all around. Kinda crazy evening, but everyone wanted to give you a hug!
"...Americans definitely CHEER more when celebrating, vs Europeans..."
It really doesn't matter HOW you show your patriotism and love of country, just that you do...
It’s funny how mostly you guys shout and cheer and we’re generally a bit more reserved. I thought this was an interesting example of that. Not saying one is better, I just enjoy the differences
@@DianeJennings Diane - I've had this on my mind for a while: I'd just like to thank you for the work you are doing talking about cultural differences and tell you how much I appreciate how hard you work on your content. You are truly a diadem among jewels.... O2
I find that cheering is pretty commonplace throughout basically the entire world, though, to be fair. Watch what happens in the streets of pretty much any European nation that wins a World Cup, it's almost anarchy. I've seen Brits react to their football clubs enough to know that they match any American sports fan, as well. The only reason the cheering was noteworthy in this video is that America's Navy just killed the man they had just been targeting for a decade, responsible for the death of many Americans and the largest terroristic attack on our soil. America had particular reason to cheer that night.
Yeah your football matches are way more reserved lol
I remember that evening. I was with my best friend (she has since passed on from cancer, I miss her tons!) and we heard the news, and we instantly popped open some beers and celebrated. He got what he deserved. It was nice to know he was gone, for good. One less evil person to worry about.
I still remember that night. Me and my college friends found out and went down to the university’s fraternity row where a massive street party started up and instead of trying to break it up, the cops just shut down the streets going in and it was like one big mob of people cheering and changing USA. It was glorious. It didn’t matter who you were that night. We were Americans and that’s all that counted.
Funny story, during the excitement someone started throwing around toilet paper and I’m not talking about the household personal sized ones, I’m talking the massive industrial sized ones and I got smacked in the head with it. It hurt more than you’d think but I just laughed and kept cheering because I didn’t even care.
No matter how many times I watch that video, I can't help from tearing up and feeling so emotional from watching that moment live.
I remember that night. I was watching the game as a Mets fan! Over 10 years later tears still well up watching this. Thank you for sharing this! Feels awesome all over again! (with a tear rolling down my cheek)
This night makes and made me cry too. Anytime we have those moments of us being the united states ppl again, instead of letting the media divide us and lie about one party or the other (one more than the other tho, ngl) it's magical to me. My love for this country makes me cry at anything that celebrates us. Like even funny Tony Keith songs about us, or angry ones, make me tear up. I'm the same way if I hear a pro Christ song on secular stations. I'm not even a Bible thumper type, but this kinda love for God or country, or both, always gets me misty
Yeah. I am a Phillies fan. They were playing the Mets that night. I went to check the score the next day & saw a clip of the fans cheering. It was great !
@@aldoesposito8195 Definitely, that night Mets fan or Phillies fan we forgot about that as we are all Americans!
I too am a Met fan and was watching that game!!!!!!
Im not crying YOU ARE!!
I'll never forget that moment. I was in College and the entire campus turned into a fourth of July party. Fireworks, flags and lots of hugs... and beer.
We drove up to DC to celebrate in front of the WH that night. My husband was wearing an Army T-shirt (he had just retired) and people were hugging him and thanking him for his service. It was an overwhelming night.
This is one of those moments you just never forget where you were.
I was in class watching the space shuttle launch when it blew up.
I was watching TV on my day off when I first heard about the 9-11 attacks.
I was watching the 10:00 news with my wife and helping my daughter with her homework when Obama came on with this press conference.
It's one of those things you just never forget.
I was only 15 at the time but I definitely knew how big an event it was when it happened. To finally enact revenge on a guy who was responsible for the deaths of thousands of our fellow Americans was a great feeling. There was a sense of closure finally, of him finally getting what he deserved.
It was actually the C-I-A and the Bush family and Clintons that dropped the Towers. The more you know 😉

Seeing the events happen at a baseball ball game is American as it gets. The world did celebrate together. I remember watching the events on tv as they unfolded back in 2011. He was hiding in Pakistan in a Abbottabad mansion. Great Video Diane. That was cool chewie wanted to hang out and watch the video too.
Haha it is funny when he randomly wants a cuddle during a video!
@@DianeJennings That is so True
George Carlin explained why baseball is no longer the American pastime better than I ever could. It's incredibly boring and you see fans in the stands falling asleep or not paying attention all the time. The USA chant was so pervasive because the game was that devoid of anything else to get excited about. I know enough to know that a 2-1 game in the 14th inning is more cruel and unusual punishment than entertainment.
It was not even a nationwide celebration at the time. Half the USA was already asleep by 2345 ET, especially those on the East Coast. The Europeans (western ones, anyway) likely would have been asleep, too, as it was the very early morning in the UK.
@@DianeJennings this was more of a USA thing more than the world since 9/11 happened in NY.
As a New Yorker who’s city was and country was gravely injured by Bin Laden I was of course very happy about our military ending this man who hurt us so much but, at the same time I knew there was of course someone there to take his place so it was possibly an empty victory. It was also sobering to remember that it was our government who had trained Bin Laden in the first place.
No, we did not train bin Laden. That is an urban legend that has been thoroughly debunked.
Damn right! I grew up in Montreal and the New York or Philly trip was always 5 hours from home. (don't tell the cops. lol!). And when it happened, i had visited Brooklyn and Jamaican Queens 5 days prior. saw it with my 2 best friends and travelers at the university's monitor and were shocked. With that said, what you just said about being trained in theses parts is what's scary about the world affairs. Just this week, i heard the foreign minister of S.A. talk from Biden's trip in the middle east, that person's accent could be from anywhere from the Midwest. You can tell where he was schooled. And yet, he had careful responses about Khaggoshi's murder. It's the Art of War, my friend.
I was 30 & stationed in spain as military police during 9/11. I had been in the navy since 1990. Hearing that he had been killed was the end of an era & its was. There was over 75 AQ attacks from 92 till 11. I was in college when the was killed.
Thank you for your service!
Wow I actually remember this one! I’m getting old enough to where these historical events happened in my lifetime
Haha well to be fair it’s not exactly ANCIENT!!
Osama Bin Laden was a big one, and a long time coming. Glad he is gone from this Earth.
The fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 (separating East Germany, controlled by the Soviet Union, from West Germany in the free world) and then the subsequent rather quick collapse and eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union (USSR) was quite unexpected and the most world-changing historical event of my lifetime. I'm 57 years old. You're probably a bit young to remember that one. The Cold War (of 45 years) with the Soviets ended practically overnight and the whole world changed because of it.
To the world from an American marine. Thank you to the world. Without everyone we could not of gotten him. Thank you for the support the men and women who joined us in the field with support with boots on the ground. And from all of us in the united states. Thank you for all the countries that joined us in this. It was an honor to work with the Brits and all the rest of our allies.
For me, I had just turned 6yo a few months before 9/11, and I grew up in a military family on naval bases. I watched my father go to war while our nation mourned, I grew up attending the funerals of my neighbors and my friends' parents. I grew up surrounded by the pain, sacrifice, and trauma that followed during the war on terrorism.
But I remember watching that presidential conference, I remember running outside in tears and screaming in joy at midnight. It was like we all, as a country, held our breath when 9/11 happened, and when Bin Laden was confirmed killed, we all were able to breath again. Watching people from all over the country pour into the streets to celebrate, cities across the world setting off fireworks, church bells ringing, all in the middle of the night. It really was a moment out of time.
I’m glad u felt religious significance because we Muslims felt that too ….bin laden killed more of us anyway. But we still getting killed all over the world by western govts so we’ve been traumatized again and again and continue to feel actual pain. We been experiencing A million 9/11s over and over again and not in our dreams in real LIFE I hope america and other nations will wake up to their oppression before god decides to do it for you🇺🇸🙏🏾 p.s thank those families for their service for me …….after all were not gonna murder ourselves right?when will we as Americans actually wake up😑
@@abdella6277 The first funeral I attended due to the war on terror was that of the wife of one of the service men that lived about 5 houses down from me on base. It was around 8-9 months after 9/11. The family was Muslim, they had immigrated nearly 20 years earlier. Anyway, she was beaten to death in front of her children for wearing a hijab. It was one of the first times I was exposed to the ugliness that is racism/religious phobia/hate. I'll never forget her.
Muslim Americans are still Americans, they deserve all the freedoms and civil liberties as any other American citizen, and they also deserve to feel safe in this country. Period.
@@erianle123547 understood I was just making a point thank you for your honesty terrorism is evil without any doubt but our country has been responsible for many families going to a funeral all over the world I just hope we get that war is a double edge sword it works both ways u seem like u get it tho so thank you for that
I was in physical therapy with a broken back, 16 broken ribs, and paraplegic. I cleared so loud I felt my ribs pop in my TLSO torso stabilization brace. Made even better when I found out that my best friend was involved in the subsequent transport of the mass murderer to his rid to the aircraft carrier. He said every man there wanted a shot at the evil man they knew was so close but they were kept high in spirits with some special treatment and satisfaction that the main goal was met.
I was on a family camping trip when it happened. I didn't even know about it until I got back home. I was nine when 9/11 happened and I watched the second tower fall on TV. I had nightmares for months about. Watching people jumping out of the window from the second tower was horrific.
😞
💔❤
That was one of the hardest parts. I remember wondering how bad it was if the better option was to jump
I was born in early 2008 and so I did not experience it so I was about 4 when it happened, I remember I was living in Germany (born an American in the States) and my parents were talking about it. I wasn't alive and it still is very sad to watch the videos in school. One thing I see is when the innocent civilians were trying to escape the Taliban and were climbing onto the planes and falling.
I was drinking instant coffee in Afghanistan in a FOB as a USMC SSGT IN A 27STA doing over watch as a Scout/Sniper when we got word of the death. We smoked cigars and celebrated !
Thank you for your service!
Most people just said something like, "Ah, they got that sumbitch. Good." And then went on with their days. It was a feeling of "justice served" but beyond that, at least among me and my friends, nobody had time for much else.
It happened on a Sunday night, if you went to bed early you probably didn't hear about until the next day? but i live in little green bay Wisconsin and it was like the 4th of July here - fireworks and all.
@@steveg8102 The official announcement was after 2335 ET on Sunday, as you said. Half the country was asleep. Nobody I knew was doing cartwheels or acting like our team won the Super Bowl. There were probably a few fireworks, but that's about it.
It give me chills every time I see it but it's sad how far we've grown apart as a country since this night.
The rest of the world was never actively involved in the tracking and execution of Bin Laden. The world may have appreciated it but the United States had the most invested into the mission.
Not true at all, do some research
I was a church when I heard the news. Sometimes unpleasant things are just necessary and this was one of them. No apologies necessary. I love your channel.
This gave me goosebumps. I have never seen this game or this footage before. We can all come together to celebrate even if we are wearing different jerseys. Thank you for this video-it was a great moment for the US as well as the world.
I remember this night. As a Braves fan, I stayed up to watch both teams play as they are in the same division. Still gives me chills hearing the USA chants.
I'm really enjoying the variety of content covered by videos on the main channel lately, Diane! It's been an awesome way for you to hopefully show new viewers who might shy away from the darker DBD channel your knack for handling everything from the serious to absurd.
I REALLY appreciate that thanks Walter! I needed a little encouragement today ☺️
I was in Afghanistan when this happened. Watched the news conference around 8 a.m. on the base at Kandahar. Thought we were going home after that! lol
Woah! That must have been surreal
Thanks man, I was stuck on a carrier fantail in Norfolk, so I certainly 'preciate you sharing. And Merry Christmas to ya
@@DianeJennings it most certainly was
@@tolvaer and Merry Christmas to you as well
If it weren't for war profiteering you probably would have, so I don't blame you.
I remember everything that I was doing on 9/11 but not this day. I am so emotional right now, I cant stop crying. Thank you for this video
I remember both. I was supposed to fly to boot camp on 9/11 then got a phone call from my recruiter saying I wasn't going to boot camp that day. I already knew that.
On the date of his death I was watching the news when Obama made the announcement. I remember crying as a disabled vet, and screaming yes we got the bastard. I ran and woke my wife up to tell her. I wished Bin Laden nothing more than for him to burn in hell
Yes it was a global event that effected everyone but the US took a special interest and the lead being that the US was directly targeted and under constant threat from these terrorists not only abroad but also domestically as evident of 9/11. The POTUS and the Military took it upon themselves to rid the world of this man and with months of planning and eventually sending Navy Seal Team 6 into darkness to execute the mission, pun intended, this was a huge victory and relief to his further terrorist threats on US soil.
The USA chants were a proud recognition and appreciation to that military operation and the Whitehouse being in command. It was the US telling the world "we got your back".
Navy Seal Team 6 deserves ALL the credit. Any president in the Whitehouse would have given the go ahead...accept Clinton, he did not. when he had the opportunity..and it costed the lives of 3000 Americans
@@C.Church Bill Clinton had 4 different opportunities to take out Bin Laden before 911 happened. What I meant by “ SealTeam deserves all the credit “ , is that Obama deserved none of the credit. The search for Bin Laden began long before Obama’s presidency and the fact he was found during Obama’s presidency was a matter of timing and not anything Obama did. The credit, obviously should go to our military and our military intelligence. Obama is a politician. And a mediocre one at that. Our military are brave warriors. And it is they who got it done. And it is they who deserve the credit.Obama was just a bystander.,although, it was Obama that allowed ST6 to take out Bin Laden.However, it was thought at the time that Obama really had no choice but to allow killing Bin Laden because of a perceived suspicion that Obama was sympathetic to Muslims, because his father was Muslim and a reticence to criticize Muslims.That is what was rumored at the time. There is nothing extreme about any of the facts I have given you. I would urge you to research it for yourself.
…ps, 911 was not Bin Laden’s first attempt on the Towers and he was a well known terrorist and leader of Al Qaeda many years prior to 911,with the right leadership in our country, Bin Laden would not have been alive to carry out the attacks on our country.
@@raymo6795 they executed the mission, but a random analyst found him. She deserves just as much of the credit
They had him found a few months after 911 but the military was told to stand down
Before he announced to the world that Osama bin Laden had been killed President Obama called former President George W Bush to personally tell him what had happened. I have always that that was a classy thing to do.
That’s a really nice human to human story
Because they orchestrated it together
I had never heard that. Thank you for sharing this information. Hope you have a lovely day/evening or however you find this comment and whenever you find it.
Ballparks do have announcers, but they don't usually announce news stories. Also, I think they'd be pretty cautious to announce a story like this without confirmation.
Smart phones really have transformed the world, haven't they? It used to be that people at a ballgame would have no idea what was happening until they went home. Now people learn about things immediately. All it took was a few people paying attention to their news feeds, and the news spread around the ballpark pretty quickly.
It’s a really good point
Diane, FYI just to add a little bit more about baseball than the ball girl video I replied to and to this particular comment. As was said yes the stadium has a Public Address announcer. In fact due to the slow nature of the game they normally announce each player before they come up to bat, and nowadays each player has was is called "walk up" music which is a clip of some song they play as they are walking up to home plate to bat, so literally walk-up music. Also they make other announcements including any player changes such as when the pitcher is changed. Usually they start with something like "Now pitching for ..." or sometimes "your attention please...". However they do not make news announcements other than the game itself. However having said all that most Major League Baseball stadiums have big electronic display boards will all kinds of game and player information as well as the out of town scoreboard. But nothing like putting any serious news as most people are there for entertainment and to enjoy a few hours of fun. Also many places have either some fireworks during the game for things like home run hits or some occassions after the game a full fireworks display after the game. Typical game times usually start around 7:00 pm or 7:30 pm and last until 10:00 pm to 10:30 pm, especially in the American League which typically has slightly longer games due to the presence of the designated hitter instead of the pitcher batting. Total game time varies as there is no clock, but they normally go 9 innings. In this game because the teams were tied at a 1 to 1 score they play what is called extra innings until someone wins (note it showed the beginning of the 10th inning). Most major league ballparks are fairly new with a few notable exceptions. This despite the game being played since the late 1800's in some places. Baseball is the only major sport in the USA played in the summer, and thus the nickname "boys of summer". The major league regular season runs from approximately the beginning of April to the beginning of October with more than a month of practice/exhibition games beforehand in March played in Arizona and Florida. Also there are numerous teams in other than the "Big Leagues" of MLB called Minor League Baseball. These are where players 18 years old and slightly older learn how to be professional baseball players in a multi level / multi tiered system from "Rookie" leagues to A, AA, and AAA leagues below the Major Leagues. The stadiums are smaller and generally less expensive. However many of them have special promotions similar and sometimes different than in MLB. I highly recommend you try it out the next time you cross the pond and go with a local who knows the game and team well so he can answer any questions. Also you can buy a game program which should have player information as well as some basics. Like I said before it is a fairly slow game so there is time to ask questions as well as eat and drink. Enjoyed your reaction and hope you can travel soon. Both you and Lenny would enjoy the game at least once. Cheers!
Exactly.
This video brought back a lot of emotions for me. Some good, some bad but in the end, grateful that this monster’s life was snuffed out like a cigarette butt. In the end he was nothing but fish food.
Wow. I got goosebumps watching this again. Thanks for choosing it. Much love from central Florida! ❤
I still remember that night like it was yesterday. I think it I had finished my last final of my sophomore year of college the day prior. Crazy it’s been 11 years and change.
Loved the video. I had seen reactions to it before but you didn't try to oveeranalyze and just expressed your feelings and thoughts. Very refreshing.
I really appreciate that, thanks Jim!
@@DianeJennings there is announcer at the stadium but maybe they didnt wanna announce over speaker a human was justified murdered even tho he was scum of scum and it had to be done along with saddam
I was at the Flight 93 memorial last weekend. I was at ground zero a few months ago at the memorial. It’s very difficult to imagine the magnitude of the loss of life on 9/11. Even worse to stand where it happened.
Even worse to imagine the losses this country has dished out across the world 🤔I think it safe to say millions sounds pretty traumatic wouldn’t u say😑 he sucked but we’re much worse that’s an understatement
There was a line in an NCIS episode wherein a character precisely remembers a date about a very minor matter.
The agents are surprised and ask how he remembers this obscure event and, paraphrasing, he says, everybody remembers where they were that night, it's when Bin Laden was killed".
I don't remember, nor the year for that matter. I was happy and relieved but it more a somber moment for me.
I don't know.
Yeah I only vaguely remember too!
Same
I remember when that news broke. Celebrations started organically all over the country.
I like how you've been working in the channel's "why" in the intros. Very concise.
Thanks for noticing!
One news commentator trade to put it in perspective for people under a certain age. The analogy used was “It’s like when Harry Potter beat Lord Voldemort.”
Omg 🤦♀️
It's hard to explain but it was such a relief that justice had been served and the man behind so much evil was gone. Love your content!!

Editor Diane is my favorite character on this channel. We need more of her. :)
I still remember this night. I’m a veteran and spent a good amount of time overseas. I was out of the military at this time, and I happened to be in a band at the time. It was a Sunday night and we were finishing up a 5 day run with some other bands. We were the headliner that night, and my phone started blowing up from old friends telling me what was going on. It was confirmed right before my band went on stage, and I bought a shot for everyone that was there, and my band gave me the honor of announcing to the crowd that we got him. I announced it, downed the shot, and played a show. I had a lot of drinks bought for me afterwards, had to decline a lot of them, but it was an honor to announce it and then talk to people after the show who just wanted to express their appreciation of what had happened, the sacrifices that had been made for, at that time, almost 10 years. I still cry when I see this video and see the reaction of folks, whenever I think about the outpouring of support I got that night, and how proud I am of my brothers and sisters from not only my nation, but everyone from around the globe who were willing to sacrifice their lives to try and stamp out the true definition of evil
Thank you for your service!
American here. We have many, many historical moments that we as citizens vividly remember where we were when it happened. And 9/11 and "Ladies and Gentlemen. We got him!" will forever be my generation's worst and greatest ones. Americans haven't been nearly as united as we were those two days since JFK's assassination and Pearl Harbor. *Maybe* the fall of the wall could come close.
This melodramatic magnification of what happened that night and was quite limited makes the reaction of Americans appear to be much more emotional, loud and visceral than it actually was. Most people thought to themselves: "Good. It's about time they got him." And we were very relieved and pleased at the news and hoped that meant we could finally end these pointless foreign wars that are destroying our economy and making enemies throughout the Islamic world and get our soldiers home. But except for Afghanistan we're still fighting those pointless wars which is a real shame and a waste.
I appreciate you sharing this view point
I just don't know what to say about this, except to say I really enjoy your more personal presentations. Even the silly ones are favorable to these darker more historically based presentations. Still enjoy seeing your smiling face, even if it is interrupted by a look of concern. Have a great weekend ✌🖖🇨🇦.
Yeah December was meant to be more light hearted but tonight’s vid got copyright struck, so this was on standby
That night my 80 something year old neighbor banged on my door insisting that I come to his garage for shots of whiskey immediately. That night I also learned that my neighbor served in the Army for 20+ years and the shots we took became a celebration. 🤘🇺🇸
As someone who has lived in the DC Metro all my life and smelled the smoke, touched the ashes, and saw the hole in the Pentagon, this moment meant more to me than perhaps someone outside not just the country but an area directly hit can grasp. 9/11 certainly was international in a sense given what happened after, and national in that an attack on one of us is an attack on all of us, but only NYC & DC area residents know that particular pain. Seeing your hometown on its knees.
I stood on the balcony of the building I was in the night in this video and you could hear people cheering for MILES. It was the closing of a chapter, in a way, a signal that we could truly move on from that horrific September day.
Pretty special moment for me that day. I was deployed in Afghanistan and it was morning on the 2nd when the news broke for us. Definitely a sense of accomplishment that day. Job done. We got vengeance on the man responsible for inflicting so much pain on thousands world wide that day. This event is the "why" behind what we were there for. We all knew it.
He was indeed but u and our military were worse then him to be just the real heroes are those soldiers who speak out against our military and govt and regret invading other countries ur no different then him in my eyes and millions of us around the world your just another soldier of pharaoh and we all know how god dealt with him🇺🇸
@@abdella6277 America's brand of evil, Taliban's brand of evil, Russia, China, Nazi Germany, etc. My point is that evil exists in the world and it takes soldiers and police to protect others from it. Sometimes you need good people that are willing to do bad things to bad people. I'm not the kind of American that won't acknowledge that my country can and should do better. What I will say is that there are those like you who are against what my country did, there are also millions that supported it. The reality is that America and its allies took bad people off the face of this earth in that war. That is beneficial to the entire world. We can debare wether the wars were successful or not and depending on your arguments, I may agree with you. But fighting against terrorism was not a bad thing. Killing Bin Laden and his henchmen was not a bad thing. There was only one way that man's story was going to end. To me, he got a better ending then he actually deserved.
As yet another faceless coward on social media I'll leave you with this...... Stuart Mill "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
Have fun being that miserable creature that keeps trolling through them comments.

@@abdella6277Shut up, you pr🤬ck!!
I was deployed to Iraq on mission when it came over the radio. At that moment it dawned on me, I was in the army was because of that SOB. I had to stay focused but there was vindication for 911 and the friends who never came home from previous deployments. I wept... I was the TC and I wept. None of us in the truck spoke for quite a long period.
Thank you for your service!

@@emmef7970 Thank you for your sincere reply. I honestly wasn't trolling for recognition. Just recalling where I was at that moment in time.
Awesome video. Thank you for doing that. Hello from Wisconsin!
I always appreciate your videos Diane.
The time and place was definitely right to chant "USA". Especially during an American baseball game on US soil.
For another breaking event that took place during a baseball game, take a look at the coverage from the 1989 World Series Game 3, when a major earthquake hit in the Bay Area right before the game started.
All eyes AND MOTHER NATURE were concentrated on the Bay Area that Day. I was 22 and felt that Earthquake so Strongly as I waited for the game to begin watching the damage unfold in TV live via helicopter panned live over Candlestick park and the Bay Bridge as it collapsed . The Nimitz freeway collapsed . It was the most ironically timed Disaster ever ! Oakland against SF in the World Series . So rare anyways . But for this to happen when it did, where it did and how it did will forever boggle my brain .
That was a trip. I was watching that game on TV when the camera feed cut off.
My son was in the Navy on U.S.S Bunker Hill, a ticonderoga class missile cruiser attached to the U.S.S Carl Vinson. That is the carrier the seals that got him deployed from. He was part of the task force. I am very proud of him for landing that assignment, that ship has a rather illustrious career.
They was a NY team,that was playing that night ! Many of those players were directly affected by 911. They were there on 911. Their family’s were there. And Philly right next door. Lots of family members who worked in NY. The fact that it was announced during THAT game was had significance to everyone in the ball field.
Happy Monday! I really love this video. Have a safe and very happy week.
You too Greg
I really liked this. Still very emotional about this event. Great job.
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing.
I was deployed in support of this operation for aircraft MX. Still the highlight of my career.
I can promise you as a marine vet who was the there from the very beginning, leaving boot camp Nov 2001 then to infantry training to school to sniper school then spending the next 3 years back and forth between home and Afghanistan when the news broke about bin laden I broke down and cried, now knowing that everything I did wasn't in vain.
I remember it so clearly bc my daughter looked at my wife and said "dad cries?" Lol I even chuckled a bit between sobs
Thank you so much for your service!
The bin Laden story is a long and often misunderstood part of American history. If the situation was a television series it would be like no one saw the first 2 or 3 seasons and only caught the middle and the end of the show.
It has happened more than once in our history and I hope we have learned from our many mistakes. The dead deserve at least that much from us.
We will never learn because we are the modern day Roman Empire the rest of the Middle East is our peasants who we don’t mind killing for our own benefit bin laden was evil but we are much worse millions of innocent lives around the world have been and still is being shed for our great country 🇺🇸 we will never learn til the day of judgment🙏🏾
As a US Navy vet (Gulf War), I was especially proud to hear that it was the SeALs that did the deed! After 9/11, I was ready to volunteer again, but I was too old by that time. And, now, when I go to the VA clinic, and see all those youngsters that served in Iraq and Afghanistan... They're missing limbs on the obvious level, while the not-so-obvious others are missing a part of their soul. It brings me to tears, and makes me wish we could have ended it in 1991.
I just came across your channel and I got to talk you . really really ENJOYED IT . KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB 👍
Love that you are posting so much, but wondering what is up with all of the super serious stuff? I thought we’d get more Christmas themed stuff.

See the pinned comment above. It’s on its way
There are times when a baseball game is postponed. In these cases a day is chosen to have what they call a double header, where they have two games in one day, an early game and a late game, so a game can be played late at night. Unless you are really into baseball, most games are kind of boring.
Interesting! But there’s so many snacks!
@@DianeJennings Peanuts, Crackerjacks and hotdogs, yum yum.
This was Sunday Night Baseball though. 8 PM start is usual. Wasn't a double header. And it went 14 innings which is why it took almost 5 hours. It was a game and a half

Hi Diane! How much does Santa pay to park his sleigh?
Nothing, it's on the house. Happy Monday!
😂that’s a really good one!
The thing I find interesting about this incident wasn't the fact Binladen had finally been taken out ( a good thing) but the complaints about crowds shouting Allahu Akbar and Death to Great Satan after things like World Trade Center, or the attack on US embassy in Benghazi, by crowds in mainly Muslim country's were called barbaric displays. The crowds that gathered outside white house, and at the ball game shouting. USA being a patriotic display. Two sides same coin. Difference is how each side framed the incident. Asymmetric warfare means one side targets soft targets while, the combatant's are targeted by US military. Each side feels fully justified in celebrating.
Well, no. On the one hand, you had acts of mass murder. On the other you had the deliberate execution of the person responsible for those murders. You can not equate those two things. One is an act of barbarity and the other a righteous act of justice. To claim otherwise is to pretend there is no such thing as right and wrong.
@@odysseusrex5908 Things like the Assange Leaks and the Carpet Bombing of Fallujah would like a word...among tens of thousands of other such barbaric actions of the US as an imperial power.
@@Solidaritas1 You're changing the subject. You compared the attacks of 9/11 to the execution of bin Laden and claimed they were equivalent. Now you are bringing up other things. This is because you can not defend your claim.
There was no carpet bombing of Fallujah. You might notice the city still stands. The United States is not, and never has been, an imperial power. You want an imperial power? Ask the peoples of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet "republics" about imperialism. They will give you an ear full. They may also take you on tours and show where the statues of Marx and Lenin once stood, but are now replaced with statues of Ronald Reagan, and the Karl Marx and Lenin Plazas are now also named after Reagan.
@@Solidaritas1 You have no clue wtf you're talking about. The United States is the most benevolent superpower in the history of the World.

I was relieved when we got him. When 9/11 happened I lived in northern VA working in NW DC. I smelled the smoke from the Pentagon from my apartment and saw the damage when I drove into work. American flags draped over the holes. People lined the roadways supporting one another. It was surreal. When we got him, it was somewhat closing the book on a painful experience. I can’t stand how divided we’ve allowed ourselves to become since then.

Hello from New Jersey!! Diana I love your videos👍🏼
I still remember this day vividly. I was in training to become a Corpsman (Combat Medic) for the Marine Corps. We were back from a field op and were sitting in the common area. When it was announced we all started cheering. Dude came out of the showers. We went out and were cheering and hugging. I was crying.
