- Here's another old home video for you -- this time from the 1993 World Series in Philadelphia.
In the days before StubHub and SeatGeek, getting tickets to the World Series was a true challenge. Somehow my dad got two free tickets from a friend with connections, and we drove down together from New York City. The weather sucked, but we had a great time, and I'm excited to finally share this footage so many years later.
For more details and stories about this World Series game, check out my blog entry about it:

Also, in case you missed it, here's the previous old home video that I posted -- Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta in 1992:
• With my family at Fult...
I hope you enjoy all this stuff! Thanks for watching and please subscribe.
Young Hample working on his youtube channel before there was youtube!!
Back when Zack had hair lol
As a 10 year old in Philadelphia at the time, I must say this video is absolutely insane. The Marlboro ad, the insane colors of the seats. I was probably at 50+ Phillies games when the Vet looked like this before they went blue. Thanks for the time machine. Only wish Wild Thing had thrown a curve ball.
Thank you for providing video footage, so I can relive some memories from that dump, but it was my dump.
crazy to see how few people wore jerseys to the game back then
why is that?
@@mike04574 Sporting events used to be a bigger deal sometimes, so people dressed up nicer
They weren’t sold everywhere then. You had to be a super die hard Phillies fan then to have a jersey. The new uniforms in 92 bumped up sales big time of Phillies gear. The burgundy stuff - while popular now - nobody wore back then. Why they changed uniforms in 92.
@@CarterHatesYou dude it was 1993 not the 20s lol
Your right zack, the vet was a dump, but it was our dump!
Schilling pitched a great game that day. Thanks Zack for uploading this. As a Phillies fan, this means something to me. Despite losing the WS, this '93 team was one of my favorite teams of all time. In addition, I never got to be at the Vet. This truly means something to any Phillies fan.
Before they even switched all the seats to the blues.
Awesome seeing that old color pattern.
As a philadelphian who's 24 and never got to experience veterans stadium, thank you.
I’m a Philadelphian to I’m 26 never got to see this stadium either
It was cool as heck. You were there to watch the game. So the concourses were there to get you to your seats, not the mall like atmosphere at the new stadium. Both upper and lower levels had a concourse in the stands you could walk around the entire field during the game. You saw it in the part of this video when he went to his seat. It was a parade of idiots some times. Lol.
@@oscarwinner2034 the place wasnt made for comfort and men went to watch the game and talk crap to other fans now like you said its like a mall full of beta males tweeting out pics of their craft beers 🤣
Zack - this is a time machine for me. Thank you for posting.
Back when stadiums were built for everyday people and actually experiencing the game
This stadium was a piece of shit
Concrete Cookie cutter crap boxes like this took most of the originality out of stadium designs for about 25 years.
the Linc is far better than the Vet
They coulda remodeled the Vet for the Phillies thou, Citizens Bank was kind of a downgrade. It just looks more modern
Wow the dedication doing this for over 30 years is unreal. The GOAT baseball fan
I loved the vet. Born and raised in south Philly living within 10 mins walking distance was one of the best things about my childhood. We used to sneak in
I enjoyed the video Zack. Great seeing your Dad. My Dad passed away last year, and have many great memories going to Baseball games with him.
This is actually really cool to see. Seeing your origins up to the present is amazing.
Wow great video Zack brings back so many memories of the 90s ricky was one of my all time favorite player's even though I'm a braves fan we had a lot of post season play in the 90s but only 1 world series win in 95 those where the days
Thank you so much Zach! I've been a Phillies fan my whole life and went to the Vet 1 time when I was less than one years old and seeing the Concorse and a space they don't have pics of is awesome
You're very welcome! Glad to show you what you (kind of) missed.
its wild how far technology has brought us in regards to camera quality, this video completes the Zack Hample Video collection for me, WoW what a wonderful adventure, If you Haven't gotten the pleasure to reads Zacks Books and you love baseball, same exciting feel as the videos, with each page....Thanks Zack for preserving this sports true heart...
this is like the first vlog ever made.
I feel like this kind of footage from the 90's is great. I bet there are a lot of really interesting videos from this time period sitting on VHS tapes in someones basement. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, and you're probably right. It was expensive to convert it digitally and took lots of time to edit, but I'm glad I did it.
Thanks for this classic Zack. As a big Blue jays fan (especially then) this was nice to see. Your mom must have been nice to you for you to not go to school. I was a post senior in high school at this time and I'm older than you. You went to a good game as this was a fun series as it was fun to get to know guys like Mickey Morandini, John Kruk, Lenny Dykstra and the infamous Mitch Williams. Being a big Blue Jays fan during those years I typically only got to see NL teams during the odd Saturday NBC game, the All-Star game and world serieses as there was no interleague play and at the time the Braves were the read deal in the NL. I also got many Mets game living bordering Western NY. I knew all the players given that I was part of the hockey and baseball card bubble but was fun to see them for an extended series.
I know this game was a Thursday night because Saturday night was game six so I know you missed at least a couple days of school. The SNL skit that was done the night during Weekend Update was classic as Chris Farley played John Kruk and he asked Kevin Nealon how they did and he said "You lost, blue jays won the world series" and then Farley was classic after that. Never got to watch that until the next day as I was too busy partying that night but did setup my VCR to tape it at the time. In 1993 I could watch one show and tape another. Times were great then.
Ahh the feels, the nostalgia of veterans stadium. Been to veterans stadium many times as a kid. My mind is exploding with nostalgia
Many memories at the vet brings back good memories thank you for posting this
Very cool video Zack! Interested to see game day experiences from earlier than I was born! Thanks for the upload. Interested too see more of these older videos!
You're welcome! Glad you liked it.
Wow, how awesome to see the inside of The Vet again, a stadium I've been to more times than I can count, including the last 3 games against the Braves. I still have all 3 oversized tickets in the lanyards they came with plus dirt from 1st base that I had a cop get for me. I had him put it in a French fry container from Chickies and Pete's. Pete was there during those last three games dressed up in some funny costumes. He's quite a character. That last year of baseball at the vet they gave away so many bobbleheads and rally towels and the first double-headed bobblehead I think it was either Phil & Phyllis or Richie Ashburn and Harry Kalus
The game before Joe Carter's shot heard around Toronto, and All of Canada.
Crazy how stadiums looked back then. I remember going to angels games back in the day before they remodeled it, kinda miss it for the nostalgia but can't really go wrong with these new ball parks and how beautiful they are. Good upload!
I totally agree. Thanks for watching.
Awesome zack! Its alway great to see old videos of the vet.
Thanks!
Awesome video! I grew up in Philadelphia and went to tons of Phillies games at The Vet. Back in the day you could get a seat in the upper level for $2, and Phillies Franks hot dogs included a voucher for a free ticket in the package. I saw Pink Floyd there in 94 as well. This brought back a ton of memories for me. I remember going to a game and getting Gary Maddox's autograph after the game.
Those hotdog vouchers allowed my dad to bring our family of 5 to many many games. Love it!
Undoubtedly one of the coolest videos I've came across in awhile
youtube is pootube lol kawhia Leonard I'm guessing
I was there. Starting working for the Phils in `88, still working for them, hope we're allowed fans this season. The Vet was the best.
I was at that game but me and my dad arrived late because of traffic. We sat in our seats about a minute before the Phillies scored their 1st run. What an amazing season!! Such a shame Joe Carter broke our hearts the next game!
I never got to see the vet but super rare videos like these are awesome
Great video and it shows me how thankful we should be of Camden Yards ☺️
Good point!
Very cool video! Cool getting to see footage from that stadium too! I was very surprised to find out that RFK Stadium is still around! I'll have to visit it sometime. I really like stadiums with a lot of history. Thanks again for the cool upload!
You're welcome! Nice to know that true fans like you are appreciating it.
Zack Hample is fat
Zack these retro videos are so cool keep em coming.
Rman Mitch its Zack not Zach
Thank you! I have four more coming soon.
Really cool that you were able to be a part of a World Series game! I've been to a few play off games.
me too
Very cool! Thanks for watching.
+Zack Hample yeah it was a good vid
That's so cool how you still have footage of this. Your awesome
Thank you!
When I was a kid, Children's Letters to God really effected me and got me through some tough times. He was truly a great storyteller. Also that picture on Wikipedia of him is hilarious
Omg!!! The Vet!!! I was 11 years old during the ‘93 World Series and remember how insane the city was for that Phillies team! Crushing loss & wouldn’t experience playoff baseball again until 2007!
In high school a couple girlfriends and I would cut class for the business man special (game started at noon), get seats in the outfield and try to get a tan in May or September and flirt with Pat Burrell! Hahaha
I miss that dump!
Dang Zach!!! You been doing this all your life!
I miss this stadium. I would go into the 700 level as a kid and sit at the top lol.
Oh man when I'm a philles fan this is awesome. Nice video Zack.
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
This is a great video! And I miss the Vet and the old seats. It's amazing that they just took them out in 1996 and didn't sell them or anything...just threw them out!
This would be Brandon Steiner's worst nightmare
I'd rather have a pair of yellow seats from the 700 level than the blue ones I have now.
I was there that night too. Sat in the upper deck in left field. That was one thing off my bucket list.
Very cool. Love these old videos.
Thanks!
Was born in December after Christmas that year. So crazy to think you’ve been doing this longer than I’ve been alive (almost 28 years old)
This video got me thinking. Has a WS game ever been totally rained out and rescheduled? I could imagine it would be a nightmare...
Jacob Davis Well, Game 5 of the 2008 World Series was suspended in the 6th. It was resumed the next day and completed. That was the game in which the Phillies won it all. I don't think there has ever been another World Series postponement.
Phillies with a bunch of guys having great years gave an underrated Blue Jays team with a lot of great players a run for their money. Great series. Memorable ending.
Marlboro signage in the stadium!!! Out of everything in this video I think that gave me the most nostalgia. The camera at 6:21 is pretty great too. Really cool watching these retro home videos mixed in with the new ones.
What's up man
The Yankees are what's up!!
Have you been to a old stadium
Hmm. The oldest stadiums I've been to are Wrigley and Fenway. I spent a lot of time at the old Yankee Stadium and Shea Stadium. The other MLB stadium I've visited that no longer exists is Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. How about you?
Have you been to the World Series game
So crazy to think this was made before I was even born.
These are really cool and interesting
Thanks. Glad you like 'em.
Loving these throwback vids!
Cool, thanks. I still have a few more . . .
I love this video
Stay awesome Zach
Zack these retro videos are really cool.
Thanks! Glad you like them.
The best ever game pitched in the World Series as Schilling shut out a team on a batting rampage both before and after his game.
Awesome stuff. Really great footage.
Thanks!
This is old but it's an amazing vid!
I was born in 93, man I miss veterans stadium.
congrats on 60k subs love your content keep up the great work
Thanks so much!
Nice footage thanks for sharing go Jay's!
You're welcome.
this is amazing!
How can I forget this game, Schill's shutout.
This is amazing Zack
Thanks!
I wonder if the guy drinkin the beer remembers the game
Ahh, back when baseball tickets were 14.99.
Without inflation
Can get reds tix for $12
I was born less than a month before this video was made in Philly.
I miss that stadium..miss yelling at Pat Burrell from left 😂
I like how it seems you have changed your viewpoint on stadiums as time has went on. Now you seem to like those quirky old stadiums with a lot of nooks and crannies but back then you thought it was ugly lol.
Yes, well, this place WAS ugly.
Back in my high school days. The best era the 90s
How big was your camara lol this is great thanks for sharing wow way back!
These are amazing clips
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
These types of vids are awesome
Thanks! Glad you like them.
Back to back champs!!!! Hopefully will add to that soon.
Nice footage bro, thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
That was you in 1993!! Wow 😮 😯
Dang! I was -12 at the time
Another great video, obviously like your new style of videoing the games but the throwback is awesome to see (this was even before I was born haha). It's refreshing to see how long ball hawking has been a part of your life. How many World Series games have you been to? So glad mullets aren't in style anymore haha. Footage from 90s baseball games is so classic, iconic baseball (not sure why this is, so deal with it)
Well said! Thanks so much. I've been to 12 World Series games. Mullets are great . . . to make fun of.
This was really cool to see. (Talking about you with hair) ha just messing cool video that stadium was sure ugly haha
I'm surprised they let you bring a camcorder inside. Cool video though! I'm a few years older than you, remember watching this series in my dorm.
What a cool experience man...one of the best WS ever
I love these
:)
Now I know what 90s baseball games we’re like
Good old footage. You even did this videos in the 90s XD.
Thanks!
When zack Hample Swiss I’d like to sit up there that’s the crazy 700 level
Imagine going to the game 6 of that same world series...
Imagine catching the Joe Carter home run.
This is when my blue jays won things
Your parents must have been rich. A video camera 📹 in 1993 and a WS game. We all know how game 6 ended! 💥 🤩 🎊 🏆
so much better looking now
I think so too.
Zack I am nine and love the Phils. I have worn Phillies gear for 328 days in row.
nice. go phils.
Go for 1,000!
Whoa! That camera. LOL. Thanks for sharing.
Ya, yup!
The vet was a beautiful stadium and much more of a home field advantage than the current stadiums.
Zack Hample you are my favorite baseball youtuber
Thank you! That means a lot to me.
Zack Hample no problem
That old guy at the end though. 😂
Great video Zack
Thanks.
your welcome
great video
too bad you weren't at game 6! What a game!
Yeah.
Cool video Zack..
Damn, imagine if you got seats up in the 700 level. That would be one crazy vlog
Woah, young Zack looks different.
Very very very different.
If only you went to the next game and saw Joe Carters walk off homerun
I know! Ugh.
