Opening Day at Yankee Stadium

[gregzzy22]

Extra loud Hip Hip Jorge chants tomorrow!

[BronxYanks45]

getting close, cant wait

[35Knucklecurve]

I am extremely jealous of anyone who'll be there tomorrow.

It'll be wonderful to hear, "Hip, hip Jorge!" one more time. I'm sure it will be a very emotional day for him.

Less than 24 hours to go, weather is holding up very very nicely!

Forecast as of 2:38 pm day before the game: Mostly Sunny with real feel of 70 degrees

Seriously contemplating taking half the day off to watch this tomorrow. I did for Opening Day haha.

[crossfire]

Can't wait for tomorrow.

Here is a picture I took at the last Opening Day at the old Stadium in 2008.

Wow... Very nice seats!

My picture on the previous page was from my seat in section 129.

I might have you in a picture although probably not a great shot.

I put an arrow on the guy in front of you in your picture here:



I put an arrow on the same guy in my picture:



And here is another picture that might have you in it:

We were close. I was in the last row of Legends (now Champions) 29 with my brother-in-law. We had seats 1 and 2. I didn't see myself in any of your photos.

Edit: Correction - I'm the guy in the Jeter #2 jersey in your last photo on page 1 of this thread!

Im like a kid on christmas morning, right now.

[JL25and3]

What exactly are the festivities in line for the afternoon?

Lots of alcohol, but that begins pretty early in the morning.

[35Knucklecurve]

I have a sudden craving for hot dogs, popcorn and a $4.00 bottle of water.

[BRNXBMRS]

Leaving now for the stadium, going to the dugout for pregame! Enjoy everyone.

[JL25and3]

As expected, the tailgate parties have started already. Man, those people are going to be pie-eyed long before game time.

They're among the reasons I stopped going to Opening Day. I went every year for 20 years or so, then decided one year that it just wasn't fun anymore.

What time are the player introductions? and are they usually shown on MLBtv? I'm at work

I see you next to the guy in the Tex jersey. I was in section 129 / row 14. I knew as soon as I saw your picture that I probably had you in some pics. I'll have to see if I have any others.

Love this picture. I had the othe one but not this one.

Showing bunt to lead off the season? Weak sauce.
