"Real" Yankee fans absent since 2009

Here we are, May 2011, the old Yankee Stadium remains just a forgotten footprint as the hallowed ground is now covered with recreational little league baseball fields. A far cry from when Gherig and Dimmagio were in Pinstripes.

The "New" Yankee Stadium is.....stuffy... to say the least. The replacement home for arguably the greatest ball park in history is nothing but a corporate business meeting filled with suit and tie stiffs who'd rather text on their blackberries instead of watch the game. A complete and utter disgrace, the fact is, Real, loud, raucous, Yankee fans have been priced out of the stadium by absolutely rediculous seat prices.

That means no more die hard Yankee fans in the seats, no more noise, no more homefield advantage, instead its a saturday lunch for a CEO and his clients.

I've been a season ticket holder since 2006, not once...have I heard the new stadium get HALF as loud as the old one. The Steinbrenners should be ashamed of how they single handidly removed all proud fans from attendance and instead invited Mr. Millionaire who knows squat about baseball.

When the old Stadium was demolished...the hearts of Yankee fans were demolished as well.
