The Adam's Deli Conversation With Nick On The Yankee Stadium Farewell

As I was speaking to NY Mets Fan Nick in Adam's Deli, I pointed out to him that the CURRENT Yankee Stadium is NOT The Original Item and that Shea Stadium is actually OLDER than The CURRENT Yankee Stadium, known as Yankee Stadium II or, as we in Red Sox Nation, fondly refer to as "The Toilet":

The ORIGINAL One closed after the last Game, on Sunday, September 30th, 1973, when The Yankees lost to the Detroit Tigers, and a whole new stadium was built on the same site, as The Yankee Stadium Site was NOT in continuous use for 86 Seasons, so my advice was not to fall for all the hype that it's the end of the Original Article. The Original Site may be finished, but it's 2 Different Stadiums on the same site. Nick is going to mention this to his Yankee Fan Friends(This should drive 'em crazy);

Shea Stadium is OLDER than the CURRENT Stadium, as Shea played host to The Mets, Jets, Yankees and Giants in 1975. I got to see all 4 Teams play in Shea Stadium in 1975. Shea Stadium played host to the Mets, Yankees and Jets in 1974;

M L B is perpetrating a whole lot of Bulls---, over Yankee Stadium II. Nick's NOT falling for that HYPE. Neither am I falling for it;

Later!
