THIS Place Is NOT The ORIGINAL-STOP Treating It As If It Was The ORIGINAL-Thanks

I KNOW what You're Thinking. You're saying "Leggett? It's Yankee Stadium-Our Home Of America's Gladiators." WHAT I'm saying that, while it's the site of the Original Edifice, it is NOT the Original Edifice. It's ONLY 32 Years Old. The ORIGINAL closed on September 30th, 1973:

The New Stadium opened in April, 1976. It's a completely different stadium. It was NOT continuously used for 86 Years;

Bennett Park, in Detroit, was in operation for 10 Years. It closed in 1911. By 1912, Tiger Stadium opened. It was the same site, but 2 DIFFERENT Ballparks. Tiger Stadium closed in 1999, and is just facing the Wrecking Ball, right now;

Y S II is the home to the "Costanza" Legend. M L B made a film about how George Steinbrenner was so key in this renovation. The Real Man, lost to History, who pushed for the Renovation, was Michael Burke, who was pushed out of the Ownership Group by George Steinbrenner. M L B is pushing a Legend about this site. Actually, it's hype, NOT Truth. And the Stadium was bought and renovated by the City Of New York, while The Yankees cried Poverty;

Even Fenway Park had to be re-built, with concrete stands replacing the Wooden Ones, but Fenway Park has been in continuous operation since 1912. NOT SO, Yankee Stadium, which is Yankee Stadium II, ONLY in operation since 1976;

Later!
