I'm from Toronto. Was lucky enough to see two games at the Cathedral of baseball. Saw one game in August of 2000 and another in July of 2007 on old timers day. Loved it! Absolute disgrace they tore it down. I have absolutely no desire to see the new place! None at all!

The new stadium is nice but it’s something about the old Stadium. The first time I visited, it was in 2005 against the Blue Jays. I will never forget it. I know there’s some debate that Yankee Stadium died when George Steinbrenner took over and they renovated it for like that two year period. And also in that two-year period, the Yankees were playing at Shea Stadium. In 2008 they were celebrating the fact that it’s no longer going to be on the current grounds that they were on and they were going to move across the street. As a Yankee fan, I felt that even Shea Stadium should’ve never been torn down as well.

I for the life of me, cannot understand how they could tear this historic stadium down. The House that Ruth built, the house the Yankees demolished. Just an obscene travesty. If there’s one thing that makes me grateful that I’m a Cubs fan and not the Yankees is the reverence we have for Wrigley Field. Just grateful we will not be like the Yankee fan base who allowed the history of their baseball shrine to be desecrated.

I was lucky enough to have been a part of a MLB team.... As I walked up to the Stadium, I was greeted by the then clubhouse manager Pete Sheehy who promptly greeted me and took my team bag in hand as we walked into the bowels of the Stadium, and into the visitors clubhouse to plop down my bag. Then Pete took me over to the Yankee clubhouse and introduced me to several of the players there. Walking out onto the field had me tingling all over. Here I was, by myself, along with the Gods of baseball past. Having grown up in NJ, I had been to the Stadium many times, but not like this. I am one lucky fella indeed......

Why tear it down? I'll tell you why. The most evil owner in all of sports history. George Von Steingrabber. The Roman Coliseum still stands for over 2,000 years. "The House That Ruth Built" for less than a hundred. The history not only with the Yankees but the N.Y Giants. Also great Heavyweight Championship fights with Joe Lewis & Rocky Marciano. Makes sense doesn't it? Let's demolish a stadium that held close to 70,000 & build a baby ballpark that holds only 47,000. All in a city that has 9 million. Do all this just so his rich friends could have luxury boxes. The destroyer of baseball got his way. Funny, never heard a peep from Yankee fans when the wrecking ball arrived!

I was very fortunate to visit the old Yankee Stadium and catch couple of games back in 2007, the new stadium was in construction across the street and during the stadium tour as everyone was walking towards monument park i stopped on the outfield and thought of all the leyends that had played on that field like Ruth, Gehrig, Berra, Dimaggio, Larsen, Mantle, Marris, Reggie, etc. and got a bit emotional knowing that the stadium will be demolished very soon.

I am so lucky to have had a beloved father who took me to the original House that Ruth Built, and then to Shea Stadium when the Yankees played there, to the newer House that Ruth built. He was a die hard Dodgers fan, so he hated the Yankees, and was more comforatable going to Mets games.💜💜💜💜
