New Yankee Stadium I had the great opportunity today of attending a game at the new Yankee Stadium. I was able to go into Manhattan to a Yankees Clubhouse store and get a ticket to the game. Since it was only me, just like the Red Sox game, one ticket was pretty easy to get. I was able to walk all over the stadium, taking pictures, seeing the field from every vantage point, and even Monument Park. The stadium is pristine and beautiful, but a bit too ostentatious from the outside. It looks like a white version of the Roman Coliseum from the outside, but I have to say it is gorgeous on the inside, and I couldn't see a bad place to sit at all. The game was great, and my seat was unbelievable. I sat in the second tier (kind of like the club section at Camden Yards) on the third base side. I felt like I was right on top of the action. The game could've only been better if the Yankees had won. They fought hard but lost to the Blue Jays, 5-4. The food was great, and they even had a deal where you buy the souvenir cup for $5, and get free refills all night. The only thing that was a problem was that I had a can of spray sunscreen in my pocket and it leaked all over my shorts. Anyone that looked at me probably thought I spilled a drink all over myself. Other than that experience, it was a great night for baseball!
