    Utqiagvik (oot-key-ah-vick) is pronounced almost exactly as it's spelt, except the g is silent. The Inupiat language is a pretty straight forward one when it comes to English writing translations.
    (Or you can do what the a lot of us Alaskans do and call it "the town formerly known as Barrow")

    • @alaskanyeti907
      @alaskanyeti907 9 месяцев назад +4

      Fun fact, it was originally named Utqiagvik by the natives but was changed to "Point Barrow" in the mid 1800's, then just "Barrow" in 1901 when a post office was established in town, as people thought non-locals wouldn't know how to pronounce it (they were right). The name was voted on and changed back to Utqiagvik in 2016.

    There is a great stadium not far from the Fukushima Power Plant. I scored the opening game of the 2020 Olympics there!
    I went by the ballpark in Utquiavik (formerly Barrow) when I was there in January 2020....Wind chill was -59 below that day :)
    The new Hiroshima ballpark replaced the old one which was literally across the street from the A-Bomb dome where the nuke exploded!!

    Yes, I saw that last one on the self guided tour, a surprising amount of times pro teams were bussed… err boated in to play against the prisoners (both in the military prison and Federal prison era. The army even had to explain why they “lost” $102 worth of balls (it’s not like anyone volunteered to dive into the bay to retrieve a home run ball)). Plus the families that lived on the island painted a diamond on the concrete parade ground so their kids could play in a little league.

    If we're getting a part 2, you gotta mention the Campo de Beisbol da Lagoa in Rio de Janeiro. It's a very quirky little field where the pitching rubber faces towards Christ the Redeemer, which is less than 2 miles away from the field. It's also commonly used by recreational teams for the handful of Brazilians that actually play baseball (afaik).

The baseball field is up on the top of the campus hanging off the side of the hill, has like 130 stairs up to the field. Super weird setup.

  • @kt-4383

    Area 51 and Fort Leavenworth are stateside military bases and baseball fields on military installations are pretty norm. Every one I have been station at has at least one and even 3-4 in some.

    @rogerszmodis 9 месяцев назад +1

    In the town I grew up in there’s a large wooded area that’s private property on the edge of town and it had a section illegally logged so there’s a bare square in the middle of the woods now. The family who owns it wants to donate the land for the high school to have a decent baseball field as they currently play at a field that doesn’t have an outfield fence because it’s a public park the rest of time. The only problem is it needs a road built to the spot because it’s about 1km from the nearest road from town. Power lines too but road first. If that gets figured out there will be a baseball field in the middle of the woods with pretty much nothing around it.

    • @rogerszmodis
