You both did a great job on this one. I enjoyed watching this and hardly any of the locations have changed in the last 30 plus years.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thanks for watching it!

[@TheMrdavidlangley]

I was born in Rockford, Illinois. And I really enjoyed your video presentation of "A League of Their Own" filming locations. Two thumbs up!!

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching it!

[@jimclark4952]

Great job...and you have a great smile!! This movie is one of my favorites of all time!

[@signsofthepastime]

Very well done, the best I’ve seen for A League of Their Own. Thanks for the effort in making it for all of us to enjoy 🙂

[@williamdubon8810]

Fun fact i live in Huntingburg and it is so amazing that we have had 3 movies filmed here.

[@shannonwilliams1941]

What 3?

[@brianschocke9642]

@@shannonwilliams1941 The two you saw on the sign outside the stadium and then there was another movie filmed roughly at the same time called Hard Rain. Big cast in that one also. Morgan Freeman, Christian Slater, Minnie Driver, Betty White, Ed Asner, Randy Quaid.

[@stevenmay3860]

I just now came across this video! I’m a huge fan of “A League of Their Own”, and this inspired me to visit these places you went to! Great job! ❤

[@LindaMz24]

This was amazing! You two did a fantastic job! 😊💕

[@hectorlopez1069]

Tom hanks did a fantastic job in this movie.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

There's no crying in baseball.

[@hazelmontgomery8226]

Yours is the second video I've seen today exploring this movies locations. Yours is better than other one I seen. Fun fact, when your dog was laying in the dirt at the ball field in St Phillips, (Oregon, lol), the ball playing extras also layed in the dirt. Reason was, the ball players needed to look more dirty than they actually were. It was supposed to be the last inning of the game and the extras were too clean so they were asked to roll around in the infield to get dirty to make it appear they had been playing hard. Make-up, (Hollywood dirt) was applied to their faces to appear dirty but rolling in the field was best answer for the uniforms to get dirty.

[@GoGo-qi1yr]

...Thank you ~ Thank you‼️... You 3 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️🐕gave ⚾️a great video 📹 without crying‼️.. Made my Day‼️🤩👍

[@RETROTV1394]

Great movie from the early 90s. With great assembly of actors and a movie which was fun, interesting and sad at times. Great opening theme by Carole King " Now And Forever"

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you for watching it!

[@karolinesmail489]

The ending song too by Madonna it still makes me sad 😭

[@EdBrumley]

I played an extra at Huntingburg and Evansville. Great fun!

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

That's so cool!

[@cmfe79]

Great video. I was actually at the filming of the world series game. I was in sixth grade and schools in the area actually gave excused absences . Columbia pictures begged for extras to fill the stadium. It was a great experience even at my age.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Whoa, that's so cool! Thanks for watching the video.

[@jroysims44]

Cool tour, Ma'am. Thank you.

[@lynnetteparkz8092]

I had so much fun watching

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you! I'm glad. 😀

Great Movie this was fun to watch as well.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you for watching it!

[@GasCityGuy]

I loved your excitement at League Stadium! I had that same reaction when I saw a game at Hoosier Gym in Knightstown, IN where they filmed the movie Hoosiers.

[@tomsimon1974]

great movie, watched it countless times

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

It's a really good one!

[@kaywilby5840]

Love it ! A league of their Own is one of my favorite movies. Thanks again.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you! It's one of my favorite movies too and was a fun video to make. Thanks for watching! 😀

[@dallas5339]

Great video and Great movie

[@Joypyf]

Rockford represent! 💪🏼

[@Joelthegeek]

so fun! I want to watch the movie again! Carly’s cameos are starting to outshine you both! watch out she might start her own channel! lol

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thanks! And yes, Carly is definitely starting to outshine us in every vlog she's in. 😂

[@8avexp]

I rode on that Zephyr at IRM once. Get this: I was born in South Bend - two years after the Women's League folded.

[@dsllim55]

I actually watched them film the scene when they come running out of the house! I live in Henderson! I remember it well

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

That's so neat!

[@naeemahmadvlogs5332]

Very Nice

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

I'm heading to Indiana this weekend!

[@melissatravels2023]

One of my favorite movies of all time!

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

It's a great one!

[@LaurensTravels]

You both did a great job with this video! Would love to go to wrigley field one day. Can’t wait to watch the League of their Own tv show when it comes out.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you! I'm excited to see what they do with the show too!

[@AdamLeerath]

10:49 I was just there today for a otters baseball game

[@mythdusterds]

That cool you were able to see so much with a drone. You are lucky you did not get in trouble for using a drone over a baseball field. Imagine a few years ago you would often have to go without even a drone shot.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Yeah, we love using the drone, but have to be careful about where we fly it.

[@loriburns2489]

Live in Evansville and love that you came and visited. Hope you enjoyed the sightseeing and history within this town

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

We were there long, but we enjoyed the area. Hopefully we can make it back again! Thanks for watching. 😀

[@kingdingaling2469]

You definitely did A , Grade A , Great job here. I’ve seen another vid or 2 on this films locations , that did not even come anywhere close to achieving all the great shots locations that you’ve got here. Nice 👍 P.S. I can’t believe they didn’t have a train sitting back there on the tracks during filming of that 1st small field where Lovitz found Dotty and her sister.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thanks for the kind words. We did a lot of driving around for this one, but it was fun.

[@kandislamar7575]

I'm singing to Nelson ain't I baby it had to be you

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Haha I really wanted to sing that in that club, but sadly it was closed. 😢

[@havingfun3619]

Great vid...

Thank you!

I know exactly where that house is. My mom watched from a block away when they filmed those scenes in Henderson.

[@MarieWinton]

I love that movie!! Cara, your shirt is awesome, so perfect. Super fun vlog!

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thanks so much! We both love that movie too! Have you heard they're making a tv show? I'm not sure what to expect, but I hope it's as good as the movie.

[@kandislamar7575]

Sometimes remakes or TV shows or sequels to some things leave you thinking they should have left that where it was at

[@jwill636]

Awesome video!

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thank you!

[@AdventuresbyD]

nice video! Enjoyed seeing all the baseball scenes around the midwest! Impressive editing!

One of my favorite tom hanks movie.

He's great.

[@hectorlopez1069]

@@TheMagicGeekdom he was incredible.

[@hectorlopez1069]

@@TheMagicGeekdom his best one was Forrest Gump

[@mythdusterds]

I think the baseball field at the 7 minute mark was probably the best of the locations since it looked the most like the movie.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Yes, it was really cool because it was so similar!

[@hectorlopez1069]

Madonna and Rosie were teammates and friends here.

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

They're really funny together.

How did you learn about the locations for A League of their Own? What got you interested in visiting these sites?

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

I loved the movie growing up, so I hoped to visit the locations in real life. I mostly used google to find several websites that had the locations.

[@kandislamar7575]

By the way I loved you in the wizard of oz

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Another zinger!

[@lynnetteparkz8092]

You should do the goonies next

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Thanks for the suggestion! We did the Goonies a long time ago, but when we were not very experienced in making videos (but it was when you could still walk up to the house). I'm from that area, so I'm sure we will be back at some point. 😀

[@rosscastaldo2762]

I teach a class called Sports in Literature. Would you be willing to speak about this video via zoom with my class next fall?

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

If the schedule works out, I'd love that. You can email us about it at [e-mail]. 😀

Hi. Would you be willing to speak to a high school class about this video?

Sure!
