So, the Yankee opener gets rained out on Monday. My BIL calls me Monday night and asks me how I would like to go to the rescheduled game on Tuesday night. You see, he and my nephew had field level seats courtesy of a vendor of his and he couldn't go to the rescheduled game. Tough luck on his part
SO yesterday morning, I drive to my nephew's house in Teaneck) he lives right across the George Washington Bridge) and hop on a bus to Port Authority. I work just 7 blocks away. My nephew works with my sister and my wife for the town, so he drove in and I'd go home with him. After work, I hopped on the subway to the stadium, getting there as they were doing the pre-game intros. By the time I got through security into the stadium, The teams were coming onto the field and I caught the first pitch. The weather was perfect, just a little breezy. We had great seats, just a tad up the third base line, just 11 rows off the field. I had my camera with me and got some great shots, which I'll post later in the week when I upload them. Despite the threat of rain, the game was played without interruption. Of course, the Yankees won

As soon as we got out of the stadium into the street, the heavens open up. talk about great timing! I've never been to a home opener before and to be at the last one in Yankee Stadium before they move across the street was an experience I will NEVER forget.
