New York City's MSG, Yankee, and Shea Stadium 101

Yankee Stadium

In the middle of a beat down, rugged Bronx neighborhood teething with trash and squalor lies the most revered and most popular baseball stadiums in the country in Yankee stadium. Referred to as "The House that Ruth Built" it is a popular hit with visiting teams, especially when it comes to the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry. As of today, there are two ways to see Yankee Stadium: in a game or by taking a tour. A daily stadium tour reserved at Yankees.com will let you sit in the dugout, walk on the warning track, sit in the press box, and take a walk through Monument Park which is right behind center field. The best way to reserve tickets is as quickly as possibly, considering the tremendous fan base. EBay is also an excellent source for tickets.
