 OK, so it's going to cost the Yankees 20 or 30k to open the stadium. Big deal.
The Yankees seem to pay that much in fines each year, so that amount must not
be too significant for them. This is a boom-time for baseball, with record
crowds and giant TV-radio contracts. You know the Yankees, in a prime market
like New York, are cleaning up. So it seems to me that the Yanks could support
the fans who support them by at least letting in free the people bearing ticket
stubs from the previous game. If this isn't feasible, then there must be some
other solution. It comes down to a question of loyalty, and there must be some
sort of fair and just middle-ground. $2.50 for 4 outs is ridiculous.
