Last Game at Yankee Stadium: Baltimore Orioles vs. New York Yankees, Yankee Stadium, Bronx, New York - September 21, 2008
Shortly after the gates opened, we got into line for Monument Park and
a walk on the field. Little did we know that the line was already
ridiculously long.
On the way in.

Another peek outside.

The food wasn't going to be available for several hours.
[Larger: 1744x1308]
The old stadium falling apart, or the result of souvenier hunters?

And then the line got into the ramps.
And went on up.

A walkway to a door near the left field corner.

Looking out the slots along the ramp at the big crowds outside.
[Larger: 1744x1308]
The endless (really) line.

Now we're still in line, but way on the upper deck on the right field side.
[Larger: 1744x1308]
Lots of line.
[Larger: 1744x1308]
The vendor outside our section was doing a business.
[Larger: 1744x1308]
People going around the warning track, maddeningly slowly.

[Larger: 1744x1308]
Meanwhile, back in the line.
