DANIEL VICTOR – New York Yankees baseball fans seem content to punch the repeat button – Patriot-News
Victor, a Phillies fan, State College native and Penn Stater (I’ve linked to him before) went to game 6 at Yankee Stadium. He compares and contrasts the atmosphere in New York as opposed to Philadelphia in 2008. Yankees fans were happy, but not exuberant, it seems — well behaved too, aside from some taunting of Phillies fans. The price of seats were sighted as a possible factor, but ultimately, the expectation of a World Series win seems to be the biggest.
Also of note, this excellent tweet from Victor: Yanks fan in bathroom to me: “Boooo!” Me: “Hey, F*** the Mets!” Him: “Yeah!” Then he gives me a bro hug and we move on.
