  Labatt Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The site of today's Labatt Memorial Park is believed to have been used for baseball as far back as 1870; baseball had probably arrived in the area with United Empire Loyalist settlers from the U.S. in the early 1800s.
During World War II Labatt Park was the home of the London Majors, who won the North American Sandlot Congress championship in 1948, as well as the Canadian, Ontario and Intercounty titles.
Along with bicycle racing, Labatt Park has in the past been used for soccer, fastball, softball, winter skating, civic receptions, the RCMP Musical Ride, Canadian football and a 21-gun salute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II during her visit to London in 1997.

Miller notes Labatt has made a slight departure from its traditional advertising and promotion of Blue in Canada during the last 18 months, moving away from lifestyle imagery to concentrating on the beer itself.
