I just found your blog by a random search for movies to download and came across it. I’m glad I did! Great site and love the nice clean design. Nice reading too.
I’ll be a regular for sure

I think its absolutely rediculous what the Yankees did this year to the fans. I have been lucky enough to have four seats in the field championship section right behind home plate. Ive had these since the 90s when the team was horrible. This year, without any advance notice, they decided to double the ticket prices from $125 to $250 a game. For me to take my family to a game will now cost $1,000 a game.

I know we all want the Yankees to win every year and to put a good team on the field, but this is getting rediculous. If your not a big corporation, have fun trying to get a good seat at the stadium. Im done being a Yankee fan, I liked it better when the real George was in charge. These other guys are jokes.

This Tier Reserve MVP thing is brutal. I’m paying for 2 seats for the Saturday plan what my friend paid last year for 3. $18 to $27 in one year? Terrible. I expected this next year with the new stadium, but I didn’t expect it this year. I’m sure next year it’ll be up well over 30.

“Itâ€™s perhaps the only part of the Stadium where you could go off with profanities if you need to let off some steam without threat of ejection.”

Gee, Tim, when was the last time YOU sat in the bleachers?

Starting from the middle of the past season, the NYPD and Yankee officials started to try and cut down on all the profanities and the like in the bleachers.

Think of the roll call for a second. Towards the middle of last season, Bald Vinny was asked by the NYPD NOT to end the chant with “Box Seats Suck”. As the Stadium continues to bring in money and try to go for the “family image”, profanities will continue to be cut down, especially in the bleachers.

It’s pretty unfortunate, actually. I’ve seen a couple of guys in Section 37, 39 and 41 get thrown out of a game because they (as in an individual guy) would not stop cursing off Ichiro, Vernon Wells, Jerry Hairston Jr., etc.

Now, if it’s a mob mentality chant (like “JD Drew is a horse’s ass), the NYPD couldn’t possibly throw everyone out… right?

The Direct TV MLB package all of a sudden looks like the greatest bargain in 2008. As the millionaire baseball studs say, “it’s not about the money”. That’s the biggest scam perpetrated on the apparent brain dead working man trudging on that horrible ride to the Bronx and dealing with the bums and thieves hanging near the bat. Of course for the rich sobs sitting next to the dugouts, the prices are less than an a .0001 hours pay..i.e. Crystal, stars etc. gag me with a spoon.

Thought it would have been cool to have the Yanks play the Dodgers during interleague play! Would have been great to have Joe back at the stadium…will have to wait until the World Series to see that!

Pete,

On the Orioles website it says the Yankees are at Baltimore on May 26th Memorial Day. The Yankees schedule says they are playing May 27th-29th at Baltimore and off Memorial Day.

Which one is correct? Thanks for posting the schedule.

My good but not great field box tickets went up from $63 per ticket per game in 2007 to $80 per ticket per game in 2008. When I first got the seats in 1999 they were $29 per ticket per game.

When do they normally contact you about season tickets? I signed up for them a while ago for the first time.

Thank God for TV.

The days of going to more than a game or 2 a year are gone for me.

But hey, if they’re gonna spend it, I guess they got to make it somehow.
