I remember cruising the J St. and L St. loop in the 70's! That was AWESOME!!!! 😁

The horrible horrible arco arena it’s taking over the downtown are

The huge arco arena they built it’s just awful it took over the whole downtown are! What were they thinking

I respect Max Baer Jr.

Bring back “Top of the Town”

YOU MEAN STEALING THE PAST FROM FUTURE SACRAMENTANS

I don’t remember this. This team was different. Great video 👏

Watching this in 2024, I'm glad I found this video. I'm a big boxing fan and watched Cinderella Man when it first released. I thought the betrayal of Max Baer in the movie was how he was in real life. Now I know the movie was wrong, and Max Baer was the total opposite of how he was betrayed.

Contractors and developers probably made a fortune.

I remember when old Sacramento was where all the bums lived before redevelopment of it and the clear view of the capitol dome from the Fruitridge road overpass at Hwy 99

Before M-80 And M-880

Movies are one thing, real life is a different story people need to know what's real...Max Baer was a Boxer a true champion.....

Excellent video. Very informative… thank you

This is how I remember Sacramento as a kid going to Sacramento it sure has changed Never seen homeless except maby hobo camp down by the rivers Sacramento has seen better days

Is there someplace I can watch all of this film? Thanks!

Thank you for making this video 👏👏 I learned about someone new (to me) and the impact she had on civil rights. She was an incredible woman ❤

Extreme opposite characters is what sells movies. It’s a Hollywood drama feature with a hero, it’s not a documentary.

Chris, thank you for all of the work you put into making this wonderful video about my mother's civil rights work in California. I know she is just as proud as I am to have her legacy remembered. The Canson family is grateful to you.

4 sure .. 🙏🏿 amen

Amazing person! Thank you for this wonderful documentary.

That damn freeway destroying our riverfront and cutting through our city... It needs to be capped with a park connector on top of it or relocated

This is awesome... Fair oaks was my town, what part of Sacramento is everyone else from ???

I get so upset when i watch these because i habe loved this team since i was 5 years old now im 28 now. Jason Williams is still my all time favorite player amd im glad he won a ring but it would have been so legendary to get the Kings a championship. Then we got Bibby and we almost had it!!!! 💔💔💔💔 We came so close... its the most tragic NBA story.

Howard is a commy jew-hating prog just like the rest of the pig vomit left of The USA.

Edmonds baseball field on Broadway and is now our Target was the Sac. Dump! I was arrested their for digging holes all after ‘Chinese artifacts’ then, I moved my hole digging to Old Sac. Got arrested their too! I love my Sac. History’ I love our Broadway Cemetery! Ronald Reagan was heading towards becoming our greatest Governor!’

I was arrested for digging up old bottles during the redevelopment of old Sac? I’m 76 today’

Bibby made them serious title contenders

Sure seemed deferential to Braddock and Louis. And like-able… Back then trash talk was not the promotional tool it is today. I loved the ‘old’ fighters: They fought everyone, and often.

Love you grandpa ❤️

Scot Pollard receiving a successful heart transplant brought me here.

A legend in early pugilism and a legend in life, RIP Max Baer

First there was nothing personal in Ron Howard's portrayal, it's just a movie and it was about James Braddock, not Max Baer, right from the opening credits, the Movie is called "Cinderella Man" meaning Braddock was the hero of the Movie, when you have a Hero you need a villain, this was NOT a Documentary, it was about real people but the whole ides of making a movie is to put "Bums on seats", the first thing you need to do that is a Hero, the hero must be an underdog, like David and Goliath, Goliath was probably a good guy too but he gets a lot of bad press, the second thing you need is a Villain, if they had both been good guys in the movie it would have been boring, it would have been a flop at the Box Office You had to be rooting for Braddock for the movie to be a success, to Root for Braddock is much easier if you don't like the Villain, they had to make Max Baer unlikable, I understand Max Junior and the Baer family being pissed off, I would too if it was my Dad, but the movie could not have been the success it was if it was made any different, as Ron Howard said, it was made from the viewpoint of Braddock, not Baer, that would be a different movie altogether Hollywood makes a lot of movies about real people but none of them are based on being accurate, they are all based on selling tickets

liar

Stan Atkinson still has that same voice 60years later😂 This was a great find. Thank you.

Too many historic buildings were torn down in cities across the nation in the name of redevelopment. Some of it was necessary, but often it went too far. Historical preservation groups did manage to save many historic sites, esp after the Bicentennial year of 1976, which spurred much historic awareness and conscience. Routing I-5 through the West End was a big mistake. Much of historical value was lost and Old Sac could have been twice as large.

This is impressive!! So much fun to watch them play basketball!!

Still waiting for that statue of Lukenbill. This is coming from a Laker fan.

Very interesting to watch with a thorough explanation of where money and aid from the government was coming from! Now we are in debt beyond belief and no one cares about where the money is going or coming from and people can't walk outside to shop because crime and homelessness is rampant!!

Thanks for posting this inspiring performance of such talented Sacramento artists, Chris. Wonderful and uplifting!

The year I was born in Mercy General Hospital.

Read the book by Thomas Wolfe, "You Can't Go Home Again..." Pigs at the development trough slopped up people's lives like discarded waste. Now look at Sac Town...a congested and ugly disaster.

2000-2004 SACRAMENTO QUEENS WAS A MEDIOCRE NBA TEAM. THEY COULD NEVER BEAT THE SHAQ/ KOBE LOS ANGELES LAKERS IN A BEST OF 7# GAMES SERIES!!! LA ELIMINATED SACRAMENTO QUEENS 3 YEARS IN A ROW.

Hi there! Can you tell me where you found this footage? I'm interested in using it. Thank you!

💯 🎤 drop! Awesome Video

The Japanese got to be relocated for the second time since WWII.

I interned at KCRA in 1995. I had grown up watching the Sacramento stations and Mike Boyd was a familiar face on TV. It was a hoot walking through the offices and hallways of channel 3 and seeing Mike and the others there doing their jobs. One morning, I parked in the lot and got out of my car with a bagged lunch. From behind me, I heard, in a deep voice, "Brought your lunch too, huh?" I turned around and it was Mike - who had just arrived also. He smiled and showed me his lunch bag. I said "Oh yeah. It's gonna be a long day." He said "Yes, for me too. A big announcement today." I said "The closing of McClellan Air Force Base?" "Yup. I got that one." he said. I grew up watching him and the other KCRA personalities and I found myself chatting with him in the KCRA parking lot.

And now that building is gone and a vacant lot is now where those stores were, demolished by the Trump-supporting landowner.
