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. [Larger: 1744x1308]

And we get in line. [Larger: 1744x1308]

A look out toward the field. [Larger: 1744x1308]

Another peek outside. [Larger: 1744x1308]

The food wasn't going to be available for several hours. [Larger: 1744x1308]

The old stadium falling apart, or the result of souvenier hunters? [Larger: 1744x1308]

And then the line got into the ramps.

And went on up. [Larger: 1744x1308]

A walkway to a door near the left field corner. [Larger: 1744x1308]

Looking out the slots along the ramp at the big crowds outside. [Larger: 1744x1308]

The endless (really) line. [Larger: 1744x1308]

[Larger: 1744x1308]

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]

[Larger: 1744x1308]

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