The stadium was originally built as a multi-purpose venue and previously hosted the Los Angeles Rams NFL team from 1980 to 1994.
The iconic 'Big A' sign was originally a scoreboard located behind the center field fence before it was moved to the parking lot in 1980.
The stadium features a rock-themed waterfall display in the outfield that erupts with fireworks after every Angels home run and victory.
The stadium was known as 'Edison International Field of Anaheim' from 1998 to 2003 as part of a naming rights agreement.
It is the only stadium in the MLB to have hosted both an MLB All-Star Game and the Super Bowl.
Angel Stadium is the fourth-oldest active Major League Baseball stadium in the United States, having opened in 1966. It serves as the home field for the Los Angeles Angels and features a distinctive 230-foot tall 'Big A' scoreboard sign located in the parking lot. The stadium underwent a major renovation in 1998 that removed the outfield bleachers and added internal amenities to shift it toward a traditional 'retro-classic' aesthetic. It is located in Anaheim, California, near the Santa Ana River. The venue has a seating capacity of approximately 45,000 for baseball games. It also hosts non-baseball events, including concerts, international soccer matches, and monster truck rallies. The stadium is situated in the 'Platinum Triangle,' a high-density development area of Anaheim.
