Well said Chuck. As a life long Sox fan, the Yankees have been, well, THE YANKEES. With that said, the Stadium has always been one of my favorites for all the reasons you mention. I had the good fortune to attend a number of games in the Bronx. By far the most memorable was attending Game 3 of the 1978 World Series verse the Dodgers with my dad. I will never forget coming out from under the stands to see the emerald green glowing under the Stadium lights. Billy Crystal's description is all so true.
Sports fans lose a very special place today. Next to the old Montreal Forum, the Stadium is arguably the most historic venues in sports.
