Buying dirt from Yankee stadium is stupid but not as stupid as buying a Bruce Springsteen CD. Isn’t Brian McNamee also selling things to pay his bills?

You pay $100 for tickets and $8 for a hot dog... Isn't that enough? Memories live on in your mind not in a piece of a chair.

I got it from the third base line after game 6 of the 1996 World Series! I have it in nice glass jars with the cap waxed on. I display it in my Yankee room. Yes, I am a homer, but i thought it was cool! I have dirt from Yankee stadium! I got it from the third base line after game 6 of the 1996 World Series!

I've seen a lot of the original seats go up for auction, but never for under $1,500. I really cant justify spending more than $750-1,000 on a seat though. We'll see what the price is when they go on the block, and we'll see how quick my logic changes. Yeah, I’m secretly saving up for a seat also. Don’t tell my wife either.

Yankee stadium seats come up for auction all the time. There are maybe half a dozen major auction houses which list a Yankee stadium seat each year - most of these are original seats - either field level or curved back seats - single or double, original paint or refurbished, selling for between $500 and $2,000, depending on the condition. The seats from this stadium will be plastic. Maybe that's what you want. But be sure to check out the originals, too - you may find a better bargain, and from the original 1923 build to boot.
