Saw games at Jarry Park, and Olympic stadium. My dad used to keep me up listening to the French broadcast (in Vermont). I loved the Expos. Many fond memories.

[@stefall27]

Apres le départ de Pédro (la vente de feux qui na pas passé dans mon coeur d'ado) je suis retournée au stade qu'une seul fois! J'ai a peine vue jouer Vladimir tellement je les ai boudé = ( Bref! De plus les voir a TV a aussi fait tres mal a la fin... souvener vous de l'entetement de Loria avec RDS a l'l'époque!!!!! Well ont les a tellement aimer nos Expos... que de les voir nous tromper année apres années a fait que les gens s'en sont détacher....

You found the perfect words ... Gary would be proud of you ... looking down from a distance, smiling at you ... and the fireworks still go off when he smiles ...

[@DavidWardle]

First game of baseball I ever went to was in Montreal, that was back in 2000 during my first visit to Canada... the Expos will always have a place in my heart

[@gospos1]

Very well done song!!...Makes me miss them every spring....

[@Mrkissuallover12]

Great Video. Yeah, Loria wrecked it all. I watched every game from 1976 to 1991. 1994 was the final straw in the heart.

[@detoxmansion66]

Loria wrecked it all but the final straw was ‘94? Which was it? Local owners wrecked it.

[@MegaJustGeorge]

I would much rather see a new club in Montreal - I'm not that good at the French language, but I would love to see it happen! Vive Les Expos! Vive Montreal!

[@MegaJustGeorge]

+George M Don't get me wrong - I loved Les Expos, but now I would love to see a new club in Montreal - especially one which brings back the pinwheel colours and the Expos name!

[@obiwanobiwan13]

As a Mets fan: 1. I miss the Expos! :( 2. I AM glad that baseball's back in D.C., though... 3. IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME! :D The Winnipeg Jets came back...the Quebec Nordiques look about ready to return... Hang in their, Expos fans--again...IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME...AND I'LL CHEER RIGHT ALONG WITH YOU!!!!!!! :D

[@1981expos]

I had to cry

[@spacerazer]

The only thing that got me through was the CAN AM Championships by the Quebec Capitales 2006,then 5 in a row 2009 to 2013 and 2017. Also Frontier league chamoions 2022 and 2023.

[@danords]

wow that Labatt stadium wouldve been amazing with Montreal skyline behind ... nice tribute

[@pheephanatic]

My dad was a huge Expos fan. Does anyone remember the Expos version of "Talking Baseball"? The only bit I remember is "That Gary Carter's awesome!" A search doesn't reveal much.

[@pheephanatic]

Dang. Never mind. I found it right away on KZbin.

[@MARILYN19481]

In 1995 the Montreal farm team (Ottawa Lynx) won the International League World Series.

[@MusicandGamesandStuf]

bring back the Lynx with the Expos!

[@Nikiaf]

i honestly believe that if MLB were to give montreal a second chance at a franchise, there would be enough fan support to make it profitable. I wasn't really into sports when the expos were still around and I would have loved to see the expos play. If they came back i would love to buy season tickets. I'm sure they'd be a lot more affordable than habs season tickets!

link to the exact lyrics please

[@stefall27]

le départ de Felipe Alou apres tout les joueurs, faut avouer qu'ils ont manigancé tellement de truc pour ecourer le monde d'y aller!!!! Pierre Boivin aurait fait un meilleur travail de marketing loll

[@tomtrh]

1:13 My thoughts exactly!!

[@wiedep]

that's not bob bailey @ 1:42, it's maury wills...

[@ThePwnu777]

@DodgersDrummondville sorry, but they're probably never coming back. the expos got unlucky, i hate the guys who made them go bye bye but note that the twins were headed this way too, but they all of the sudden got luckey and were good. so we didn't.

[@daboys1215]

Oakland fans know exactly what this is like.

[@networkeffectmovie]

Mathieu, I'm doing a documentary on the 1994 Expos right now and starting a campaign for it on Kickstarter. Can I use this video for my campaign? contact me via the film's website at theyearthatneverwas.com and we can talk about it :) Great video too, you did a great job!

[@DannyToonz]

Dale Thompson where can i watch this documentary you speak of?

[@robertwayne808]

I see y'all hate Selig too. He's doing his best to ruin baseball in Houston now. The team stinks right now, but thanks to Selig he got his stupid Brewers put in the N.L. Central while forcing our team to switch to the A.L. West. There's no way people in the central time zone are gonna watch all those road games starting at 10 p.m. our time.

[@indy66]

Montreal is not and will never be as it was in the 80's... Gutless politicians, city in a sorry if not miserable state. I live in the suburb of Montreal (Laval) and i only go to Montreal if it's an obligation. What a mess...

[@trooper32556p]

Wouldn't it be ironic if the Marlins folded & moved back to Montreal?

[@meanseanful]

Makes me more angry than nostalgic.

[@Unclemoparman]

twice as long as it needs to be

[@MathBibeau]

LORIA , SELIG and BROCHU sucks!!!!!! BRING BACK THE EXPOS !!!
