  1. Minutes…hahahaha…hahahahaa…He needs to walk down to the corner and pick up another $2 card for the Dominican Republic. What’s up Mets? Sorry to hear about the team, I’m sure your squad felt more than a little intimidated by all the facial hair and the fact that the opposition parked their Kawasaki Ninjas next to the dugout. Such is the burden of the man who lives rightly.

    I did see that link and I didn’t eat or drink at the stadium. however tempted. I learned from going to Giants games that it’s always better to booze+eat and THEN enter the stadium with a flask or flask-like bottle to “stay current and informed” with.

    Good story from Sunday, in about the second inning, with the sun beading down and Phil Hughes taking his sweet old, the staff broke out the “squeeze breezes” which are $20 battery-op’d motorized-fan spray bottles. They sold out by the fourth inning, on all three levels. Right before the rain delay, the staff broke out the $20 umbrellas. So if you arrived at the stadium you spent at least $40 just dealing with the weather.

  2. In fact, by my calculations, the Yankees grossed enough greenbacks yesterday to cover Curtis Granderson’s 2010 salary with enough left over to cover insurance against food poisoning at NYY Steak.

  3. The Mighty Dollar Rules!!!!

    I heard next Sunday, they’ll be offering $1 King Burritos thru the 5th inning, at which time they would break out the Charmin’s Soft tissues for $25 a pop (no pun intended)!

  4. HAHAHAHAHA

  5. was the $5 poland spring bottle sold seperately from the battery operated spritzer or did they install coin operated mechanisms on all the sinks and water fountains in the joint?

  6. tickets, squeeze breeze, umbrella, souvenir, lunch, poncho, dinner, beer…won’t count parking, that goes to the city (that’s the story).

    Attendance was officially 47,890, and if half of them spent $200/head and the other half spent ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, that’s a $4.8M haul versus Kansas City.

    Arizona got the body cavity search, absolutely. Haren one of the most consistent pitchers out there.

  7. Actually the bottle arrived full, but I think the Yanks have a sweetheart deal on municipal water usage because of that and that they also gave out free ice in a free cup if you ordered your $5 Poland Spring.

  8. This I know must be true, because water rates just increased in city. Even though the water flows from the high grounds upstate BY THE FORCE OF GRAVITY.

  9. I guess they are saving money on not cleaning the cooking areas and ice since they are apparently not storing things properly so they must be passing those savings on to the fans.

  10. During the delay on the big screen they had Nick Swisher in a Japanese chef outfit getting a grill lesson from a steakhouse chef.

  19. HOLY SHIT THAT IS FUNNY. STILL LAUGHING

  20. How in the name of God did they allow that picture to be taken?

    photographer: “whatta ya say all you guys take your shirts off and kinda lay around on top of each other”

  21. Bro, that cover looks like it belongs on the shelves, no? That would climb to the top of the charts…hahahaha

  22. thats great

  23. lay around……hahahahahahaha

    Bro, you know that had to be like a 10 minute shoot. Can you imagine the photog directing it……”Oh, oh…..beautiful……nice…..ohhh…..right there……the camera loves you……ahhhhh…..that’s it…..”

  24. is there one strand of hair on a chest or an arm in that picture?

  25. Oh, oh…..beautiful….that’s it…..LMAO

  26. If that lasted 10 minutes and nobody said, “ya think we look like a bunch of homos”….well, then shame on them.

    I might just have to get that pic in a big glossy print to take to ST next year. I will actually go down with the crowds when they are signing(which I dont do) just so I can show 1 of them and ask, “WTF were you thinking”

  27. hahahahaha…that’s worth putting up on a NEW THREAD
