I went to the last game at the original Yankee Stadium in 1973 .. I took my seat home with me .. I still have it ........ Sec. 33 Box 165E Seat 5.

There was not one good reason to get rid of old Yankee. It was just to spite the construction of Citi Field. Strange ego trip imho. To ged rid of history in the intertest of saying hey my toy is shiny and new too smh

It Sucked, I was born in 2009 so I never got a chance to see the Yankees play at the old Yankee Stadium.😢

This was the last year I watched Baseball on a consistent basis. It's just about money and gambling now. I watch now only in the post season if the Yanks make it.

Ironically every time the Yankees had a big farewell ('08 Stadium, '13 Mariano, '14 Jeter) they missed the playoffs and were out of the race when they had their farewell events. If they had been in the playoffs as they were accustomed to, or even in the playoff race at the time, it wouldn't have necessarily been definitive when their last appearances would be and the events would not have been as big as they ended up being (this whole game, Mariano's final walk off the mound, Jeter's walkoff hit).

Do u have a fan address to send letters instead of internet

fantastic upload. thank you for posting.

It's all about the money now. I attended this stadium when box seats were $10 in the early '80's.

I'm glad they moved Thurman Munson's locker across the street to the new facility

The greatest stadium ever

The MCG Of New York

I watched a game there once. The entire stadium was constructed by some koind of super technology. Anti gravity. Huge lifting vehicles. Something…that ancient aliens would have had.

The audio quality is not good because it's kind of nasty how there is so much of that saliva stuff then.

LMAO @28:10 Willie Randolph sliding

I enjoy going back through the years watching old matches on KZbin that I missed before (MLB 1940s and up, NFL. Too bad no classic WWE here). My beef with this ceremony is that they didn't include ex-managers.

It's an iconic place to people to history it's always going to be greatest stadium ever built for one iconic legend Babe Ruth

Absolutely disappointing this was one stadium I always believed wouldn't be torn down I mean look at this place the history the players the great great moments that have happened here and above all this place is baseballs cathedral forever to fans to players & visiting players that have come here all the greatest players have all come here and played here at some point in time this great place has overwhelmed everyone who came here either to play or watch some good ballgame some great baseball moments that has happened only here Yankee stadium

I thought they would have kept the old Yankee stadium up as a great baseball shrine for all to enjoy and cherish for generations to come but they tore this great stadium I'm sure allot of people felt they should have kept it up

It's petty cool to see this because my dad was at this

Must have been surreal

3:53:17

Such a big Stadium, I’m 22 now and the stadium really don’t feel the same anymore. I went in 2008 and didn’t go into the new one still 2021😭. I don’t feel the same at all

15 years ago and I still missed it and I’m a dodger fan

Épico

15 Years since this. I remember watching it & crying.

Just saw Brian Bruney at 42:06

There was no place like Yankee Stadium. I was there that night and didn't leave til security finally kicked us out of the empty Stadium well after the game ended.

Wade boggs will never be a yankee legend. His loyalty is with the bums from Boston. We don't want him in pinstripes and I don't care how many horse rides he took around the stadium in 96. he is not one of us

It's so cheesy that they had people dress up as old baseball players from history and take the field during the ceremony. Ugh corny

Most the fans cheered more for the more modern guys, which is understandable. But most the older guys not only were great Yankees but rank on lists of All Time greatest players. Cheers should have been much louder for them.

19:04 김병현한테 홈런친거 굳이 얘기할 필요가 있나 ㅎ 그 시리즈 양키스 졌는데

Assheads RIPPED DOWN BASEBALL HISTORY! HOW TOTALLY VULGAR..

3:01 I can’t help but hum old the meow mix commercial music from back then. The melody of the music they are playing is nearly identical to it lol Especially towards the very end

You are so pretty! I wanted to see you pop some of those balloons with your nails or high heels.

Carlos Rodon wears number 55 now

While I can’t argue the original was legendary, it simply just ran its course. It was obsolete and falling apart. Steinbrenner wasn’t going to put anymore money in it. Hell, he wanted a new one as early as 1998. Not to mention it felt very crammed

Fun fact I was at this game the building was rocking that night

My favorite part of the opening was Julia Ruth Stevens.

The heading on the thumbnail is A Bit misleading though....because you see...,,,THERE IS ONLY ONE YANKEE STADIUM!!!🏟

This would be a subject for a future new JaguarGator7 video since the channel did started just recently.

Reggie’s still looked young that year wow he never changed when he aged that time

Back in the summer of 2006, I went to my 26th game at the old Yankee Stadium and watched as Derek Jeter got a walk off homer right in front us, I watch as Andy Pettitte pitched and struck out the batter from the other team, now back then there was no Yankees-East 153rd Street station there should be a Yankees-East 162nd Street station which is the current Melrose station a Kingsbridge station etc even 149th Street-Grand Concourse and 138th Street-Grand Concourse after both Yankee Stadium stations and go all the way to Canarsie-Rockaway Parkway below the 3 and 4 trains underground and above the L, 3, and 4 trains at Sutter Avenue and New Lots Avenue and above the L train at East 105th Street and Canarsie-Rockaway Parkway so it’ll be like this for the Hudson line: Poughkeepsie New Hamburg Garrison Peekskill Cortlandt Croton Harmon Ossining Scarborough Philipse Manor Tarrytown Irvington Ardsley on Hudson Dobbs Ferry Hastings on Hudson Greystone Glenwood Yonkers Ludlow Riverdale Spuyten Duyvil Marble Hill University Heights Morris Heights 176th Street 170th Street 167th Street Yankees-East 153rd Street 149th Street-Grand Concourse 138th Street-Grand Concourse 125th Street 86th Street 59th Street Grand Central-42nd Street 34th Street-Penn Station 14th Street Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall Fulton Street Wall Street Bowling Green Borough Hall Nevins Street Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center Franklin Avenue-Medgar Evers College President Street-Medgar Evers College Sterling Street Winthrop Street Church Avenue Beverly Road Newkirk Avenue Flatbush Avenue

Hard to believe it's been nearly a decade and a half since the old cathedral hosted it's final game. I went to the third to last game played here in 2008, which was my final ever visit here. 1994 was when I started going to games as well. It still sucks that the true Yankee Stadium gone for good after all this time, even if that's progress though! I haven't even been to a Yankees home game since 2011 for that matter, which both literally and figuratively became so not worth it too!

2:25:42

some ballpark

as a DIEHARD red sox fan who hates the yankees i have to admit they NEVER should’ve left the original yankee stadium it was amazing

This was a crime. Unbelievable

The Giants (NFL) played here, the New York Cosmos, Wrestling, Boxing, numerous Concerts, the Pope, Billy Graham, the 9-11 Memorial, Jeter's HR in the 2001 WS (especially after 9-11), Reggie and Chambliss playing hero in 1976 and 1977, the 1958 NFL championship, Lou Gherig being the luckiest man on the face of the Earth, the Babe's first HR.... I could go on and on....

The old Yankee Stadium was completely torn down at the end of the 1973 baseball season. For them to pretend that this stadium is the historic Yankee Stadium that Babe Ruth played in is in my opinion despicable. Yogi was asked how it felt playing in this stadium and his response was, "I never played in this stadium". By the way, I was in the old historic Yankee Stadium that Mantle, Ruth, etc. all played in and it was NOT this one.

It was so stupid to tear this ballpark down.
