Damn. I wish I'd thought of saying that.

As noted previously, Yankee Stadium was already torn down. Don't believe me? Look at this:

That's all that's left of the "House that Ruth Built." Everything else you see today is post-renovation. (and even that photo includes the ten extra rows added to the top of the upper deck, and the circulation ramps added during the renovation - but it does give you an idea of how much was gutted)

Yeah. Me too.

I am going to steal that, though. :D

I say we save Yankee Stadium for a possible United Football League team or a possible 2nd Major League Soccer team in NYC.

That's a grand idea! 50,000+ seats for minor league football and/or soccer makes great sense.

So I'm not the only one who assumes he was serious?

What would New York do with an empty 57,545 seat stadium? No teams are coming to replace the Yankees, so what could you use it for? The new park looks beautiful (and it better for a $1.2 billion price tag! :blink: ).

Tiger Stadium was left to rot for 9 years after the Tigers moved to Comerica Park. Same thing happened with Olympia Stadium after the Wings left in 1979. I understand the desire to try and preserve places like this, but what are you going to do with it that would make sense? It's better to put an old park out of its misery instead of letting it sit there, fall apart and become an eyesore.

It's like he searches the entire board for Vanessa Hudgens references so he can defend his schoolgirl crush.
