Top 3 things to never say at a traffic stop in new england #1; “Man I love the Yankees” #2; “Man I love the Yankees” #3; “Man I love the Yankees” Honorable Mention: “I hate the Red Sox”
@noggin6870 Baseball attendance was declining when New Yankee Stadium was built. Now, it's been increasing during the 2020s with weekend games noticeably selling more tickets. As a result, the A's proposed stadium in Vegas had its capacity increased from 30,000 to 35,000.
@@TheKiiS/ I've been inside the Yankee Stadium before but me and my mom left early before game finished. I don't care if you consider this boring, I would definitely go in there and watch the whole game
@hidaven2006 quit ur crying. The Red Sox destroyed the aura of the old stadium when they came back from down 0-3. Yanks never even made it out of the 1st round in the playoffs after that, and didnt even make the playoffs their final year there. A change was needed. It's not a coincidence that they won the WS their first year at the new place
the mets stadium is nice but goofy. they think they are the dodgers and jackie played for them. its insulting. the jackie robinson rotunda takes up the best real estate in the stadium. he wasnt a met! yes i get that he played in new york so put up a statue outside or a plague but your whole entranceway real estate??
@@infoguy1978 why you have something against Jackie Robinson Statue in CitiField should the Mets not have Willie Mays up there too because he was a Giant even though he also played in New York?
@@davidfraher1292 I don't have a problem with the statue, just the rotunda because its the best real estate in the stadium which is going overboard. city field isn't the dodgers stadium. when I walk in I want to see mets stuff. Las the stadium was built after the dodgers. who cares bout the dodgers? the mets already honored them with their uniform color scheme
I went there when I was 8 the last year the two NY stadiums were open. You could see the new ones right next door it was super cool. Went and saw both teams on the same day. I have yet to go to the new stadiums.
You want a chance to see a Yankee game at the original Yankee stadium. Get a chance go to Wrigley field. Old, tight no field division and crappy bathroom facilities. That was the original Yankee stadium. I saw a bunch of games there when I Young. And I saw hundreds of games in the rebuilt stadium that was replaced in 2009. The new stadium is fantastic.
I went to the old stadium when I was 11 years old in 1959. We were allowed to walk around the field after the game. That was really cool. I got to see several future Halk of Famers in their prime.
@@Da_Publick ok? You spent all that money to build a new one... easily could've spent the same or less to fix the stadium that had been there since the beginning
@@braves5696often times renovations of that caliber will end up costing more than building a new one. it’s sad they tear down those historical sites still. just happened with my old high school football stadium that got replaced with a new one that feels barren
I'm from STL, but even I know you don't just tear down the cathedral of baseball like that 😡 They know they could've damn well still made money on it by having tours. People from all over would've come (myself included) and Yankees fans could come by to pay their respect to the house that Ruth built. Grandparents and parents, showing their kids where they sat. That place was a piece of baseball history ⚾
Having been able to go to the old one from since I was born numerous times and seeing historic games there and the new one now & having seen historic games there to there was something different about it it’s art like looking at the cathedral in Rome it’s seen empires form and empires fall Historic names & Numbers walked those grounds it’s sad and I miss it to this day I still get goosebumps watching old videos But them making it to a field for the kids if they had kept just alttle but more of the building for the field it would’ve been something special still is
Not a new Yorker or a Yankees fan I'm from Chicago and I think naturally we are born with a dislike of new Yorkers. But I'm happy they kept the stadium in the bronyx. So many teams abandon their cities, really just spitting in the fans faces.
I can’t imagine how badly fans take it if they moved to the west side. Especially with how saturated the west side is around Chelsea and Hell’s Kitchen. Would’ve been a nightmare commute
As a man born and raised in the Bronx and a lifelong Yankees fan I’ll never love the new stadium as much as I love the old stadium too many memories in that place for the good and the bad the wins and the losses the World Series wins the ticker-tape parades the legends who played there everything it was just too much I like the new stadium but I don’t love it I’ve been there plenty of times but it’s missing that house that Ruth built feeling if you know what I mean
All the money spent and we didn’t even change anything. It’s just a modernized version of the old park but minus all the history. It really bugs me that they tore down the House that Ruth Built just for the sake of “newer, shinier, better.” I wish they would’ve put a retractable roof so we could stop getting rained out constantly. I’m honestly so sick of rainouts and I wish MLB would enforce a rule that gives teams a certain number of years to do something about it. I’m a Yankees fan and i still think any game at the stadium that gets rained out should be a forfeit for us.
There was early concept designs for a retractable roof (same with Citi Field) but neither went through due to it being millions of dollars more expensive and taking longer. Keep in mind the new one began construction in 2006, and the economy got worse soon after
@@RYMAN1321 Fair point but I just wish MLB would mandate that anyone playing in any area where game cancellations due to weather has a provision for avoiding that. I’m a Yankees fan and I wouldn’t care if they were made to forfeit any home games that were rained out.
The old stadium was smaller but had more seats. Also the way the seats were angled kinda made it feel like everyone was on top of you so imagine being an opposing team especially during the playoffs being yelled at by almost 60,000 New Yorkers
Should have just turned old Yankees stadium into a museum everybody would have loved to visit that tearing it down was like removing a big piece of baseball history , and I'm not even a Yankees fan I'm a Braves fan and i still say tearing down old Yankees stadium was a mistake
Hope they never do this to Fenway. Even as a Red Sox fan, I have no idea how New York was allowed to demolish the old Yankee Stadium. It should've been considered a national historic site.
The new structure that now claims to be the home of the Yankees is severely lacking the personality and charm of the stadium that was built 101 years ago.
the last question "worth it?" no it was not worth it. They should have just renovated the old stadium but i get it that it would have cost a lot more to renovate than to just build the new one.
The dimensions of the old stadium were ridiculous. The right field wall in current Yankee stadium is complained about now...I can't imagine how bad it would be if it were still the same distance. The left field wall was also very deep and that's why some great Yankee right handed sluggers like DiMaggio or Berra don't have eye-popping home run totals.
The most regrettable thing the yankees have done in my lifetime. Killed all of the magic and the ghosts and the lore. But I’m happy for the rich people who get to enjoy a more luxurious experience.
The new one has short walls like the old one, 318 feet left field and 314 feet right field which my 90yr old grandmother could hit over. That should explain the Yankees home run success 😮
Fenway Park: A shrine that will never be demolished. Wrigley Field: Same. Yankee Stadium: Hell with it and Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, etc etc etc. Just bulldoze it and build a fake with a buncha luxury suites. Draw that corporate and broker crowd!
I left MLB a long time ago. And now it's drifting further off my radar. All it ever had going for was its traditions. The new rule changes are sinking that now too.
The video says the Yankees began building the new stadium in 2009 and then says it opened in 2009. Impossible. Also, Monument Park is behind centerfield. The museum is somewhere else. Mind blowing that someone can mess up facts
I’m a Red Sox fan so 1000% biased opinion here. Building a new yankee stadium is a trash move on the level of selling babe Ruth to keep a broadway play going. Not renovating the old one should curse them for at least 86 years.
“‘Why did you build a new krusty krab right next to the original?’
‘Money’”
Yooo. That actually fits so perfectly
Well, the Yankees are a business, and that's what all businesses do.
"Why did you comment on something that has nothing to do with you'?
'Clout chasing.'"
Man I love the Yankees but something about the old stadium just feels different
It's called history. I'm not even a Yankee fan and I miss old Yankee Stadium. It was a crime to get rid of it.
The only reason I like the new one is I had family helped build it , but I do wish they kept the old stadium/more of it

“I hate the Red Sox”
@@zachramey7187 I'm surprised it wasn't made into a baseball Yankee museum or some sort of historical sports museasy Emerson thing
@zachramey7187 was about to say, Yeah... HISTORY. 😂❤
More luxury boxes and fewer seats for fans says it all.
fewer seats because people are fatter and need more room. Of course, this comes at more of a premium price, as well.
@@briansoloalso because baseball attendance is declining. All new ballparks are smaller.

@@ZaKRo-bx7lp ehhhh, it's been mostly flat. We're still below where we were in 2017. It's a slight uptick from 2018-2019 though.
Before my grandfather died I bought him a piece of the turf of old yankee stadium. Was definitely one of his most prized possession
The old Yankee Stadium was electric. You could hear the cheers from Ogden Avenue and 167th. The new stadium swallows the sound.
It's that plus everyone is on their phone and they just attend because it's a status thing. They're not really into the game
@@jamesdonoghue7967 have you never been to an MLB game? So incredibly boring. 😂
@@TheKiiS not anymore lol
@@TheKiiS/ I've been inside the Yankee Stadium before but me and my mom left early before game finished. I don't care if you consider this boring, I would definitely go in there and watch the whole game
Something else different: the OG wasn’t a glorified shopping mall
Shopping mall with a few hotel rooms that happens to have a baseball field.
With the same energy as a museum
@hidaven2006 quit ur crying. The Red Sox destroyed the aura of the old stadium when they came back from down 0-3.

The Mets finally did something better. Citifield was a huge upgrade over Shea Stadium even though I loved how open Shea was.

@@davidfraher1292bad comparison Willie played for the Mets in fact he retired as a Met
I'm not a Yankees fan what so ever, but they 100% should have kept the old stadium, just renovated it. So much history there
To much money to do that with how much it would have cost less money in just making a new one on the same land they own
I really wish I would have gotten a chance to see a game at the OG Yankees stadium 😢
I went there when I was 8 the last year the two NY stadiums were open. You could see the new ones right next door it was super cool. Went and saw both teams on the same day. I have yet to go to the new stadiums.

I remember when I was a kid watching the ball bounce around the statues in the outfield and the players trying to grab it. Good times
I've watched games in both. The new doesn't come close to the ambiance of the old stadium.
Old Yankee stadium was dirty and hostile. New stadium feels like a museum, shopping mall, airport food court that happens to have a baseball field
As a braves fan, they should of never got rid of their last stadium. When I think of playoff baseball that stadium was one of few that came to mind!
Tearing it down was absolutely ridiculous
The original was literally falling apart.

@@izzym1The new one does have a museum
Monument park was in the old stadium as well
Yeah, I didn't understand that comment. Unless it was click bait.
The video says "a cool museum behind center field" was a difference between the two stadiums.. which is incorrect @@kenjf1009
I will never forgive them for tearing down the old stadium
They should taken old yankee stadium and turned it into a Yankee museum! So much history with this team definitely enough for a museum
The new stadium is also so darn more symmetrical.
It ain’t the same. The old stadium was a madhouse; the fans were right on top of you AND we were winning as well.
I’ve heard a ton of Yankees fans who grew up with the old stadium saying the new one is disappointing
I'm from STL, but even I know you don't just tear down the cathedral of baseball like that 😡
They know they could've damn well still made money on it by having tours.
People from all over would've come (myself included) and Yankees fans could come by to pay their respect to the house that Ruth built.
Grandparents and parents, showing their kids where they sat.
That place was a piece of baseball history ⚾
My first game ever was at old Yankee Stadium. I love the new stadium toi
and just like the choctaw stadium for the rangers, older stadiums just looked so much better in design ngl
Having been able to go to the old one from since I was born numerous times and seeing historic games there and the new one now & having seen historic games there to there was something different about it it’s art like looking at the cathedral in Rome it’s seen empires form and empires fall Historic names & Numbers walked those grounds it’s sad and I miss it to this day I still get goosebumps watching old videos But them making it to a field for the kids if they had kept just alttle but more of the building for the field it would’ve been something special still is
Ahhhhh Dodger Stadium ❤
I went to the last Yankees/Red Sox game in old yankee stadium in 2009. I was 14-15 and It was magical. Got thrown up on in the 8th inning 😅
Not a new Yorker or a Yankees fan I'm from Chicago and I think naturally we are born with a dislike of new Yorkers. But I'm happy they kept the stadium in the bronyx. So many teams abandon their cities, really just spitting in the fans faces.
If they moved to New Jersey... my heart would have broke
Shame they didnt appreciate the history of the House Ruth Built. Yet anther reason I'm thankful to be a Red Sox fan. Fenway lives.
Monument Park also was at the old stadium.
I love reminding my Yankee fan friends that all those legends they love played at Fenway Park and never played at New Yankee Stadium. 😂
They should’ve turned the original Yankee Stadium into a Museum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Tigers should have done this with Tiger Stadium.
Tiger stadium was my favorite place as a kid in the 70,s! Epic ballpark
Shortest outfield walls in the MLB not to mention the closest. No wonder they hit so many at home lmao.
I can’t imagine how badly fans take it if they moved to the west side. Especially with how saturated the west side is around Chelsea and Hell’s Kitchen. Would’ve been a nightmare commute
In the 1980’s Steinbrenner and NJ politicians had talks about the Yankees playing at Giants Stadium.
which is kind of funny since the giants used to play in yankee stadium
As a man born and raised in the Bronx and a lifelong Yankees fan I’ll never love the new stadium as much as I love the old stadium too many memories in that place for the good and the bad the wins and the losses the World Series wins the ticker-tape parades the legends who played there everything it was just too much I like the new stadium but I don’t love it I’ve been there plenty of times but it’s missing that house that Ruth built feeling if you know what I mean

I go to at least one game each year, this stadium is worked out, the original should’ve just been renovated imo
Finally. The front of Steinbrenner’s face.
The new yankee stadium has less seating for regular fans and more luxury seats for the rich fans. Great!

Old Yankee stadium closer to field.
And the first no hitter at the new Yankee Stadium was a combined effort by three Houston Astros AGAINST the Yankees, June 25, 2022. 😄😄😄😄😄😄
The new structure that now claims to be the home of the Yankees is severely lacking the personality and charm of the stadium that was built 101 years ago.
nah could u imagine if yankee stadium was in Manhattan 💀💀💀 that would be horrendous lmfao
the last question "worth it?" no it was not worth it. They should have just renovated the old stadium but i get it that it would have cost a lot more to renovate than to just build the new one.
Love it
Should have kept the original where babe Ruth , DiMaggio and all the greats played what a shame.
Should’ve renovated the Old Yankee Stadium.
Shea was my Summer House
So they priced out the fans how inspiring
Giants/Jets did the same built the new stadium right next door
Mr Steinbrenner had to many calzones with Costanza, this seems like a Costanza idea
The fact they demolished that ball park shows how little they care.
New stadium to increase Home Run
They should have used the old one for some other team or even a Yankee museum instead of tearing it down
The dimensions of the old stadium were ridiculous. The right field wall in current Yankee stadium is complained about now...I can't imagine how bad it would be if it were still the same distance. The left field wall was also very deep and that's why some great Yankee right handed sluggers like DiMaggio or Berra don't have eye-popping home run totals.
Yogi Berra did not hit right handed, he actually hit lefty but just wasn't that much of a power hitter. Sorry lmao ☝🤓
I went to school with the Steinbrenners, then they changed their names to their mothers when they got remarried
The most regrettable thing the yankees have done in my lifetime. Killed all of the magic and the ghosts and the lore. But I’m happy for the rich people who get to enjoy a more luxurious experience.

Love it 😍
It was a major step up for us from upstate as we got a new metro north train station.
I hate the Yankees but I wish they kept the original. Imagine having the original and MSG in the same city.
Thank God They didn’t move the Yankees to
New Jersey
The old stadium was better. There was nothing like it
Fenway Park: A shrine that will never be demolished.
Wrigley Field: Same.
Yankee Stadium: Hell with it and Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, etc etc etc. Just bulldoze it and build a fake with a buncha luxury suites. Draw that corporate and broker crowd!
According to statistics, Fenway Park is demolished practically every year! 🤣
New Stadium hasn't seen that many World Series though.
Yeah i knew a bunch of people who bought seats from the old park. Not cheap eaither lol.
Gimme the old one. Suites are for suits... Added shitters are nice tho...
For the normal guy who loved baseball, free bleacher week was abolished. 😢.
Welcome to the 21st century Yankees fans
Soooooo. More rich people, less poor people, and wasted money. 👍
I do miss George Hal blows
Remodeling would’ve been better
No way a near exact replica. Superficially similar at best.
I was there one time
All Busch Stadiums >
Thank you Mordecai
just like the nj giants and nj jets in new jersey
Yo the manager looks like Messi ngl
the new stadium SUCKS
Citi field is way nicer than shea
built a bandbox where a peewee baseball player can hit a home run.
The only team the Mets are a rival of is themselves.
And 190 foot fences
I left MLB a long time ago. And now it's drifting further off my radar. All it ever had going for was its traditions. The new rule changes are sinking that now too.
One other big difference, aura and mystic don't live in the new stadium 😮
Tball field 😅
We have enough traffic from the Giants and Jets. Devils take the train.🤔
Wait, they were going to relocate old yankee stadium? That can’t be right. You said “relocate it”. 🤔
Less fans more corp seats. What a joke
Have I ever wondered why what?. Finish the sentence!!!!
So did they just make the old stadium a museum or what?
Your story is very nice but it wasn't the Yankees that built the stadium, it was New York State that built it
new stadium is sooooo much better than old
Old Yankee was better... they would of been better off renovating the old one. You don't replace Wrigley or Fenway... I thought Yankee was one of them

Nah curses aren't real lol
