FINAL 2009 Yankee Stadium Attendance Tracker

With the Yankees having trouble filling the expensive seats, now is as good of a time as ever to start a new Yankee Stadium attendance tracker. For now, we will just post the official attendance (based on the box score), the date & time and the weather conditions for that day. Perhaps sometime in the future we can put it in graphical form, but for now it is just simple numbers. Will the Yankees ever crack the 50,000 mark? We'll have to wait and see...

Remember, this is tracking PAID attendance. The Yankees don't release how many people actually went through the turnstile. For example, on the 4-22-09 day game, the paid attendance was 43,342, but anyone watching on TV knows that the Yankees were lucky if 30,000 were in the stadium.
