And 10 years later, it would be the Yankees’ turn as they clinched their first World Series title since 1978; four more would follow in 1998, ‘99, 2000 (against the Mets!), and most recently 2009.

If New York City can get a chance to do it again it'll probably be The Knicks in 2023 if they win The NBA finals and championship
