Freeze Dried Yankee Stadium Grass For Sale
|
|
After the Yankee post game on Yes last night I happen to catch the infomercial for Steiner Sports and their wholesale whoring out of every bit and piece of the old Yankee stadium. Hey.. I can understand people would want to buy stadium seats, pieces of the outfield field, pieces of the facade, lockers, signs and many more interest and historic items. However, I have to draw the line at spending $80 on a small patch of freeze dried grass from the field… yes.. freeze dried grass. This grand structure that was once the place where every young ball player wanted to work is not being reduced to selling dirt and grass plants from it’s field. You can seem Brandon Steiner licking his chops as he talks about the “less expensive” items that are available for purchase. It reminded me of when someone auctioned off Luis Gonzales’s used bubble gum on eBay. So our final memory of the grand old stadium will be seeing reduced to small plugs of grass encased in collector’s glass. I ain’t buyin.

Hey, man. I love the site.
I’d like to show you a piece I wrote about Steinbrenner.

I’d also be interested in exchanging blogrolls with you. I could use a good Yankee perspective.
