Last night, I was able to sit in Section 220, Row 13, Seat 11; and watch the Yankees and the Jays play. I was pretty exited because this would be my first outting all year, and there's only 4 days 'till school starts... So I was looking to have some fun.
See, to anyone that knows exactly where that is, they'd know that the seats aren't bad, but the overhang of the Luxury Boxes are over the seats.
Next, before the game, I was looking to purchase a Yankees Bullpen Jacket Click to view and as you can see on the site, they were $119.99. I went to the concession stand, and asked to try it on, to make sure it was nice, and that it fitted me properly. Sure enough, it was perfect. I pulled out my money to pay for it. "That'll be 195.48." she said to me. "What the hell? If it's $119.99, it should be $137 and change." I responded. "Sir, the jacket is 169.99."
Well, that being said, I wasn't going to spend nearly $200 on a <Censored>ing bullpen jacket. Not a chance in hell. I then went to the main Jays shop, I believe it's in Section 112. I walked in looking to buy a Yankees jersey now. Throughout the 100 square foot store, I think about 3 square feet had Yankees apparel. 4 jerseys, a handfull of hats, and a "batting helmet" that looked like it went through hell.
So, now the game. Anyone watch it last night? Top 6, 1 away, Melkey on first, Jeter at the plate. He hits a floated down the line, probably 10 yards left of the pitcher's mound. Jeter looks like he beats out the throw, infact, replay shows he did, and they call him out.
Now, not to blame the umps, (awaits shot from Gtown, ROCKSTAR, ect.) but it's not brain surgery. The runner gets the tie, in this case, it wasn't even a tie, but what the hell, why not blow it aswell.
Anyways, the Yankees won, I got a jersey, who gives a rats ass. However, if I was from New York, and wanted to come see a game, here's a few changes that I'd want to see.

[*]More Yankees Apparel.
[*]Better view of the game. Perhaps take out the luxury boxes, and make them regular seats, so that everyone can see the sky when the dome is open.
[*]Cheaper concession stand prices. Who the hell would spend $200 on a bullpen jacket?
but i think im still close to banage
