Awesome! You must go!
I attended all three games this weekend at Yankee Stadium to see the Yankees play toe hated Red Sox. I have been to Yankee Stadium pre-9/11 and post 9/11, and have read reviews about ushers being rude, etc. I had no problem with any of the ushers, and found them to be very kind. Take the SUBWAY to the stadium. The B-D and 4 trains go to 161 St/Yankee Stadium. Follow the crowd. When you enter, expect a mob, but a quick moving one. It took me about 6 minutes to get into the stadium each day. You will be asked to remove your cap, turn cell phones and cameras on, and open any jackets. You may be patted down as well. Once inside the stadium, ushers will help you find your seats, although the alleyways are labeled and your seats should be not hard to find. Once there, get some food and enjoy the game!
Notes:
--Food is pretty expensive, even by ballpark standards. A 20oz Coke is $5.00. Peanuts are $5.00, Cracker Jack is $5.50, Beer is $8.00 a bottle.
--The loge level offers GREAT seating. Look on eBay for a good deal. Also, the upper deck level isn't horrible, especially if you are in the Tier Box section (As opposed to Tier Reserved)
--Gates open 2 hours before Game Time. Get here then. Enter quickly and go right to Section 36 to visit Monument Park. There are Yankees monuments, plaques, etc. and it really is a great place. But, get here early because getting in is hard and lines are long.
