My god. What a waste of government resources. Why on earth are state and federal agencies getting involved with this???

i didn’t try to steal anything on monday. just attempted to watch mo close out the game from a back section of the lower level, one of the wheelchair accessable sections with the folding chairs was completely empty. we opened 2 chairs and watched the first out. then a security woman chased us out.

no big deal really, but i can’t believe how fired up this woman was with 2 outs left in the game. then she wouldn’t even let us walk down to regular seats without a ticket. she was rabid.

Bellylard, my Dad was there and still has a giant clump of the outfield grass/dirt in a ziploc bag. Doesn’t look like much of anythying anymore!

I’ll be there on Sunday. It will be awfully tempting to take SOMETHING. But we don’t wanna get busted and lose out on tickets in the new stadium. This sucks.

I’ll never forget that mass of people running around on the field in 1973 on the day when the real stadium was closed. I’m pretty sure a couple of guys had to visit the hospital after unsuccessful bids to attain second base, just for one example.

My point was that I don’t want “a” seat. I want THAT seat. Even if I went the legal route, I wouldn’t be able to pick that one.

I’ve sat in the same seat for 25 years. Frankly, I think the money my family has paid for those seats for the last 25 years entitles us to them. It’s my seat. That’s how I see it. Instead it’ll get auctioned off or whatever. Some fanboy will pay an exorbitant price for a cracked seat with a whole in it and the name “Glenn Wry” carved into – whoever that is. It is garbage. The seat is busted and its trash really. But I grew up in that seat. But it won’t be mine. That’s BS.

$18,000 should come with as many seats, signs, sinks, as you want. And making the players pay for that crap? No wonder the yankees stink this year!

It doesn’t surpise me that people are attempting to take some memory (or Ebay item, as the case may be)…

What always amazes me, though it probably shouldn’t at this point, is the absolute inability or unwillingness of others to put themselves in somebody else’s shoes for a half-second.

How would the people attempting to steal seats feel if there was no seat or a damaged seat waiting for them when THEY showed up for their final game at Yankee Stadium?

Good for Mussina

There was nothing worse to me than seeing that guy(Ricky Davis?) miss a shot on purpose to get a rebound for an artificial triple double a few years ago. Better to have a true 19 than a jury-rigged 20.

I was at the Yankees/White Sox game on Tuesday (the Jeter hit game) and the dude next to me had a bagful of tools. During White Sox BP he unscrewed & stole one of the “Watch for Foul Balls” sign on the visitors dugout.

I was gonna see if I could rat him out for a signed bat!
