MCMLXXVI-Bicentennial-Yankee Stadium II Opened

It was during The Shea Stadium Years that 'The Rivalry" was re-born, as crowds flocked to Shea, from New England and were joined by Mets Fans, in making Yankees Home Games, seem like they were on the road at Fenway Park. This was transplanted over to Yankee Stadium II(Toilet II):

Our nation had turned 200 Years Young. 32 Years Later, The Media would celebrate The Legend of a 33 Season Ballpark, as if it was The Original;

The Mets Tom Seaver would strike out his 200th Batter, for the 9th Straight Season. He k'd Pirates Catcher, Manny Sanguillen, at Shea Stadium. Not bad, for $1.30 Admission, in the Light Green Seats of Upper Level;

Things would change in 1977, with Seaver Trade I, which would cause Shea Stadium to be dubbed "Grant's Tomb", in "Honor" of M. Donald Grant;

Later!
