I have been to Expos games and the indoor stadium is absolutely huge, it was built for the 1976 Summer Olympics and most of the fans had really no clue about baseball 😁😆
But it was spotless everything was as pristine as could be. That Montreal franchise had some incredible players who came through the franchise! And when i was up there I went to see Montreal minor league club, The Vermont Expos cool shit!
That is way cool! I am a lifelong Red Sox fan but I loved the Expos. That’s a great find.
Jose Vidro! I used to have High Heat 2002 for my PC and it was the greatest game ever! You could do a fantasy draft on franchise and I always had Jose Vidro. Also always had Craig Paquette for some reason lol
The ballpark on the box cover is Stade Parc Jarry. It was a temporary stadium built in 1969 until a more permanent stadium was built.
The permanent stadium was originally supposed to be ready by 1972 but labor disputes and cost overruns delayed that. In 1970, Montreal was awarded the 1976 Olympic Games. Expos decided to move into the Olympic Stadium in 1977.
Stade Parc Jarry is now a tennis facility. The press box and stands behind home plate are now located at the main court.
