Angel Stadium

This renovation was heavenly...

One of the "signature" aspects of a baseball stadium is its entrance behind home plate.  When the wonderful renovation of "The Big A in Anaheim" was completed in 1998, one of the best improvements was to the main entrance.  Those are two h-u-g-e sculptures of batting helmets on each side of the plaza.  Originally, they were blue, but now they've been repainted red to match the team's current dominant uniform color. For 2004, by the way, the park was renamed "Angel Stadium of Anaheim." Mostly due to team's success on the field, as opposed to the park's name, attendance spiked upward in 2004. Therefore, click here for the best tickets at Angel Stadium.
