Dinner at the Paramount
We had a grand time and Jeff Clark showed up and graciously picked up the check.
FREDDY!
Freddy is a bit of an icon at Yankee Stadium. He bangs large pots and makes a lot of noise and he has his own website I am told. On the West Coast "Crazy George" would be the equivalent.
The House That Ruth Built
It's a sparse old stadium, to be sure. Nothing like AT&T in San Francisco. It's simpler, and frankly, less commercial.
The Yankee Game!
I took the subway from somwhere near W 46th Street down to the Bronx. On the way I met this delightful family also on their way to the game and they gave me their predictions on the outcome. The gentleman pictured here heartily despises The Big Unit (Randy Johnson) and hoped that he would get shelled early and leave and the Yankees would still prevail.
It was nice talking with them and they gave me advice as a newbie about food and seating. We had a great time on the way to the game.
New York has a kind of an angry reputation until you actually visit. The people are very nice, open and fun. I had fun the whole day and the people were one of the best things about it.

Some great fans
You hear about New Yorkers and about the fans but they really are fun and very friendly. Mom and daughter here (and their freind who is not pictured) were a lot of fun.The told me a lot of insider info about the game and various traditions.
