Yankee Stadium memories by Billy Crystal

A poignant and concise memory in honor of the last game being played today at Yankee Stadium. All baseball fans can relate to what Mr. Crystal writes, even those of us who attended games there only in spirit, not in person, LOL. Though I was excited to see it once from the subway as I trundled by on the way to visit a Bronx outpost of the Jewish charitable agency that I briefly worked for (until they ignominiously dumped me on my one year anniversary when I was supposed to receive a bonus percentage of the for profit part of the company). Even the glimpse of it during the day, when there was no game, was moving.
