Trivia

An empty Tiger Stadium in January 2005.

• Tiger Stadium was sometimes called The Corner, as it is located at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull Avenues.
• Had a 125 ft (38 m) tall flagpole in fair play, to the left of dead center field near the 440 ft (134 m) mark.
• When it closed, it was tied with Fenway Park as the oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball the way the dates are normally reckoned. They opened on the exact same date in 1912. Taking predecessor Bennett Field into account, this was the oldest site in use in 1999.
• The right-field upper deck overhung the field by 10 feet (3 m), prompting the installation of lights above the warning track.
• Was the second-to-last stadium to install lights for night play, before Wrigley Field.
• Had upper-deck bleacher seating in the outfield.
• Was host to 11,111 home runs, the last a mammoth, right field, roof top grand slam by Detroit's Robert Fick as the last hit in the last game played there.
• The depth in straightaway center field was actually 425 ft (130 m), not the 440 ft (134 m) as shown on the center field wall.
• Tiger Stadium was home to the Detroit Lions from 1938 to 1974 when they dropped their final Tiger Stadium game to the Denver Broncos on Thanksgiving Day. The football field ran mostly in the outfield from the right field line to left center field parallel with the third base line. The benches for both the Lions and their opponents were on the outfield side of the field.
• On July 13, 1934, Babe Ruth hit his 700th career home run at The Corner.
• May 2, 1939, will be forever remembered in the annals of baseball as the day New York Yankees first baseman Lou Gehrig voluntarily benched himself at Briggs Stadium, ending a streak of 2,130 consecutive games.
• The stadium was depicted in Tiger Town, a 1983 made-for-television baseball movie starring Roy Scheider, and (as Briggs Stadium) in the 1980 feature film Raging Bull where the stadium was the site of two of Jake LaMotta's championship boxing matches. Tiger Stadium was also seen in the film Hardball starring Keanu Reeves, and in the aforementioned film 61*, where it "played" the part of Yankee Stadium as well as itself.
• In the film 61*, Tiger Stadium is shown painted blue, with blue and orange seats, but that was its appearance after a renovation in the late 1970s. In the year 1961, the stadium and the seats were painted dark green.
• "Michigan and Trumbull," a song by Michigan indie-pop band The Original Brothers and Sisters of Love, pays tribute to Tiger Stadium in its last season.
• The stadium hosted the 1941, 1951, and 1971 MLB All-Star games.
• In February 2006, Tiger Stadium's field was used for the 2006 Anheuser-Busch Bud Bowl advertising event, part of the unofficial Super Bowl XL festivities.
• Like other older baseball stadiums such as Wrigley Field, Tiger Stadium offered "obstructed view" seats, some of which were directly behind a steel support beam; while others in the lower deck had sight lines obstructed by the low-hanging upper deck.
• Tom Monaghan, a former owner of the Detroit Tigers and owner of Dominos Pizza, once had a helicopter deliver pizza to those working in the press box.
• Modern luxury-style suites were practically non-existent at Tiger Stadium, and the lack of revenue was cited as one of the reasons for building a new stadium.
• Sports Illustrated featured a poll of major league baseball players asking which stadium is the favorite to play in. Tiger Stadium usually placed within the top 5, along with Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, and Wrigley Field.
• Unlike Comerica Park and many other modern stadiums, Tiger Stadium featured an upper deck bleacher section that was separated from the rest of the stadium. Chain link fence separated the bleachers from the reserved sections and was the only section of seating not covered by at least part of the roof. The bleachers had its own entrance, concession stands, and restrooms.
