A Sea Of Red In The Bronx, As Phillies Fans Take Over Yankee Stadium



Apparently, all of the rich Yankees fans are out in the Hamptons for the first summer weekend, as Phillies fans have taken over at the new Yankee Stadium. Nick exaggerated and said 50% of the fans were rooting for the bad guys on Friday night. Here is a photo on TwitPic illustrating all of the red in the bleachers. The person taking the photo estimated 35% Phillies fans.

Regardless of the exact percentage, it is pretty embarrassing that it takes a well-traveling fan base to fill the seats at the "new house." Yankee fans have some explaining to do, and it better not be that they sold their tickets because it is a holiday weekend.

Had a friend call me from the stadium and said the same thing. But thanks to A-*** and the C * C gang alls well that ends well.
I had a friend (met fan) who was up in Fenway last night and said it was amazing to see soooo many Met fans there as well. He thought it might have been about 30%-40% Met fans there.
Just a sign of the times I guess.

Maybe the holiday weekend excuse has some legs after all...
