    and last but not least.........

    pic of my ticket stub and the piece of my seat. I had to break it of so you could see the seat number. I would have taken more but there were cops EVERYWHERE!!!! there was no chance of getting away with anything bigger then this. so.....I stole a piece of history and can proudly say I was at the stadium for its last game!!!!!!

    Very cool!! I am a cubs fan as most of you know, but YS has always been bigger than life, and I for one am sad to see it go as I love the history of baseball. VERY happy to see you made it to the last game ever played there, history for sure!

    well fletch if they said.....sure, take what you want, can you imagine how UNSAFE that place would have been? I wouldnt have a problem with them auctioning stuff off for charity.

    That's one reason. The other reason, as it always is, money. The will probably be able to auction off every last inch of that place. Hell, I would be willing to buy a few things.
