The "Old" Yankee stadium held the air of history. We attended a game during Bat Day and all the kids were given bats, which was a bonus. The new stadium is sleeker but doesn't hold the memories the one across the street from it does. The museum housed in one of the sections bring you back to the time of the "Babe" and baseball fans will cherish their first trip here.
We got an up-close and personal tour, everything from the stadium, to the press room, to the lockers. Plus we've watched a tons of games there. Here are some photos. Your kids will love it (even if they are not baseball pro's)
The neighborhood is kinda seedy though. Watch your wallet!
Home of the American League New York Yankees, this is “the house that Ruth built.” The Bronx Bombers play from mid-April to early October, with special promotional days with hat, bat, and glove giveaways scheduled throughout the season. So take your family out to the ball game, buy them some peanuts and Cracker Jacks, and see the best ballplayers in the business, right here in the Bronx.
Great if you are a baseball fan. Visiting the historic "House That Babe Built" is a treat even for casual fans. The new stadium is right across the street, I think.
Go Yankees!
It wa s a nice place to go and watch the Yankees play. It was in a bad neighborhood, but that did not stop anyone from going.
If you were a baseball fan, this was the place to go.
You cannot come to NY as a baseball fan and NOT come to Yankee stadium. Even if you are not a Yankee fan, you have to see where Ruth played. Not to be missed.
