The old house with the "Big Bat" of course.
A shot of the new place walking up. 
All the times I've been to Yankee Stadium I never made it to Monument Park. So of course I wanted to go this time but when we got their it was already closed.
Who knew Wang loosened up by having a catch in the out field.
Boy is that screen big.
Reggie Jackson throwing out the first pitch.
The first pitch STRIKE!!!
Yankees coming to bat. 
Yanks win 7 - 4 
Happy Yankee fan. All in all the stadium is a really nice place. They really thought of everything when putting this place together (except the blind spots from the bleachers) Of course it will be hard to get use to because even though they did their best to keep things the same, but better it's just not the old place. I'm sure that when fans of the original stadium came to the remodel in the 70's they were like this isn't our stadium. Just like I was thinking something just seemed weird about the new place. I guess when you hear that this place is something like 66% larger then the old one, but it just feels more compact. Maybe because the scoreboard is so dam big (but very cool) or maybe the restaurant in center field I don't know just yet but it is a nice place to call home.

Looks sweet. We're going to both new stadiums in May. I wonder if the home run shenanigans will continue throughout the season...and I wonder how it will play in the postseason.
