A 1995 look inside Cleveland's Municipal Stadium.

How freaking cool…. My dad has lots of memories of this place… I never got to see it but so cool to see this stuff

Somehow I’ve never seen this video. Thanks for posting!

I really wish that things would’ve been different. Whereas, I fault Art Modell for getting into debt and not having the right skills. Mike White didn’t think that it would happen and failed as well. How Al Lerner could go from orchestrating the move to being the hero is beyond me! It was disgusting how close White and Lerner got after the move!

Thank you for this moment, boys!

I miss this place! So many memories there, I hate change!

Never seen this before, thank you for sharing.

My brother participated in punt pass and kick on that field. He took a pinch of grass and still has it 30 years later.

The browns hosted the oilers. I believe one of the last year or second to last that Houston played before going to Tennessee.

Sipe is an all time favorite of mine. I remember his rookie year training camp at Hiram College and seeing him for the first time. The players were returning from lunch and here he is, super sun tanned in cut off jeans and a Tshirt walking with all these gigantic men. I remember thinking that he must be a coach's son. Then practice began and Mike Phipps is throwing these lasers all over the field and Sipe is fluttering the ball downfield on his throws. My, how the fortunes of these two guys differed.

I remember skipping high school to go to games. Sitting in the outfield, in the sun, I felt alive and free. Great memories.

Watching this brings back so many great memories man takes me rt back there

Be better without the qc code

This is a fantastic video 2 of my favorite players. Jerry shirk and Bryan Sipe in old municipal stadium. What a rush!! all the memories came flooding back. Watching the Browns play and win in that stadium.

Class video

Wow this was a unique perspective and really brought a lot of mixed emotions and memories back including that last game. Great video!

Sipe and Shierk love these two guys. Man the memories 😢😂😊

Mr Sipe is my first cleveland browns first quarterback i remember. thank you Brian

God that old stadium would get rocking for the browns didnt matter against who when

Mr. Brian Sipe.....You will Never actually know what it was like.......The "Old Lady by the Lake was our Home"..........btw....My wife LOVED you and your playing...............Thanx Bri..............Stay Browns !!!!!!!!!! Edward T

Love this song and opening. I left my rotator cuff on that softball field at a practice in 1988 or so...never thought I'd play again.

So much sports history in that stadium.
Not to mention some great rock and roll concerts too😂

I was 12 at the time The Move was announced. I started watching them around the time I was 9 or 10. I had been to the stadium for at least one Indians game. I also saw the Browns play the Steelers twice (1 win, 1 loss). The last game I saw here was a victory over Trent Dilfer and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the last season for the stadium. The day before my 13th birthday, on September 22, 1996, the stadium held an event called "The Final Play" and I told my parents this is what I want to do. And I lived 80 miles from Cleveland. We got to go in the stadium and ON THE FIELD for all sorts of activities. I tried throwing the balls into a circle and also got to kick field goal attempts. I didn't do very well, but it is a great memory.

I'm 60 and Brian Sipe is one of my heroes! I love Brian fuckin Sipe!
Cleveland loves you!

"The Greatest Place on Earth!!"

“sometimes memories are better than reality”

Awesome video!! I loved Brian Sipe and the teams of his era. Those are the earliest memories I have of the Browns. Somewhere in a box in my basement, I have a VHS tape of me driving my 1979 Ford LTD onto the field to pick up two stadium seats I purchased as they were tearing this wonderful old stadium down. I loved this place. Great memories of freezing there watching the Browns and burning up watching the Indians. One particularly freezing Browns game I remember was a Browns v Bills playoff game. And my favorite Indians memory... slamming the empty seats in rythme to the chant Joe-Joe-Char-bon-eau!!!

I was in that stadium twice in my life, and ironically, i witnessed Dave Stieb throw the only no hitter in Toronto Blue Jays history, and the other time I witnessed Dan Marino's Achilles rupture

So many awesome Browns players, but Sipe has always been my all time favorite one. Municipal was so neat too.

I was eight years old when 'Red Right 88' happened. All week long I was begging my Dad to take me to Zayre's for a Brian Sipe poster. My Dad said if they won we would go get it right after the game. We were watching the game together in our basement and after the pick in the end zone my Dad got up, turned off the TV, and went up stairs. I remember sitting in the basement in the dark crying away. We Browns fans are a unique tough breed - the conditioning starts early for us! Still love my Brownies - one day!! :)

I live in Kalamazoo Mi. and i seen the Browns and Chargers play there in the 90s. Cold and snowy but loved it.

Not a Browns fan, but this is wonderful.

I love Jerrys nostalgia and talking about what the guy painting the field is thinking.

Only went to one game there. That was the game thatTurkey Joe Jones dumped Terry Bradshaw on his head and put him out for the rest of the season. Steeler fan here. That was in 76.

Best description of any edifice ever. Cleveland Sports reporter describing Municipal Stadium as" an upholstered bomb crater".

That was so cool to watch! I am so fortunate to have had season tickets in that stadium. I still have my seat from the Dawg Pound mounted in my bar in my basement. Yes, that fateful final home game against the Bengals I borrowed a wrench and a handsaw from the guys behind us. A beer in one hand and a saw in the other, that bench was coming with me!!

Jerry Sherk's an excellent photographer. He used to post his photographs on facebook. A few were taken during a game on top of Municipal Stadium's roof during a game.

Wow! Tearjerker video for me. Loved the story withe Sipe's Dad in the stands for the last time and his last quote, "...Always has and always will". As season ticket holders, my son and I were at the very last game played there. It also was quite emotional. We helped with the pre-demolition of our beloved stadium by passing sections of the old steel and wood seats over our heads and on to the warning track. I remember a dummy of Art Model danglin from the second deck, hung in effigy. We felt betrayed; like our hearts had been ripped out. We were there for the Drive and the Fumble playoff games against Denver. Til this day, my wife cannot stand to look at a picture of John Elway with his big toothy grin. My boyhood idol was Paul Warfield, who Model traded to the Dolphins. I still remember us giving him a 5-minute standing ovation when he returned to Cleveland for a Monday Night football game. He was instrumental in kicking our ass that night. It was the only time I ever remember cheering for an opposing team's player.

I really wish that there would have been better communication between Art Modell and the municipal officials. As well as state officials. Because of this, we lost our team! Shame on all of them! Also, it would've been nice if we had gotten a new stadium before. Next up, if you keep it up with Jimmy Haslam, we could lose the Browns again!

This is actually a really sad video. It’s basically them giving the browns one last good bye.

This was fabulous!

I was an usher there for the 94 season. 17 years old. Worked most of the my games in the dawg pound.

I am a live long Browns fan I was able to vist this stadium only once to watch the then Tribe play Seattle Ken Griffy Jr. Was my favorite player!

I enjoyed this.

Cool, went to a lot of Tribe games there and a few Browns. Nearly 30 years ago now, my kids were still in grade school.

Should have never been torn down! Now they claim the new one needs to be replaced!!

I became a Browns fan because of Brian Sipe, but mostly watched the games on TV. What I remember about this stadium is visiting it with my high school marching band and attending my first U2 concert there in 1987, looking out past those tall steel uprights in the top section to see the stage. I always wanted to 'see' this stadium again. Thank you.

This brings back many childhood memories of attending Cleveland Indians games in this stadium. There's something surreal about seeing it again... I recall the excitement I felt as a child walking up to that monstrosity of a building as well as the awe I felt once inside, the energy of the fans etc. Of course, I also remember attending a game or two where there were only 20,000 fans and it felt empty.

Thank you!!

I was born in 1998 so I don't remember the old browns but it's so cool seeing the original stadium and seeing old players, but the qr code on the left corner is annoying

Thanks for the video!! Me and a friend of mine and his Dad were in the Stadium the last day it was open to the public. That would've great to play catch on the roof!! Ha!

This is the stuff that history is made of 🤩

Two legends.
