The original Yankee Stadium was not just a baseball landmark, but also a cultural icon.
“The House That Ruth Built” was torn down and replaced after the 2008 season with the “new” Yankee Stadium to the dismay of fans across baseball. The new park looks nearly identical to the old one and is a beautiful, modern ballpark. But there’s something about the lack of history and the longing of nostalgia that leaves a sour taste in fans’ mouths.
What do you think of the new ballpark? We asked fans which they preferred in Saturday’s Dunkin’ Donuts poll. Check out how fans voted in the results video above.
