Yankee Stadium here I come

After over a month of dealing with the Yankees website and ticketmaster (I don't know if they only released some of the tickets at first or what) I was able to get tickets to the Saturday and Sunday games on 6/10 and 6/11 in NY.  I've never been to Yankee Stadium and am very excited.  

I had given up, but since I missed the boat for when the A's come to Boston I tried again.  The Sox had only put a few games up for sale and then didn't post a date for when more games went on sale.  Apparently, it was a week before I checked because all I could get was tickets to the Thursday game and they were standing room only.  Forget that.

It will just be my Dad and myself for the trip.  Our first baseball trip was the trip to Oakland in 2003 vs. the Sox that I already posted about.  The following year we went to Baltimore and saw the Sox.  Last year we were going to go to Atlanta for the A's series, but it was going to cost over $1000 and that seemed like a lot for a 3 day weekend.

Anyway, I'm excited and plan on taking lots of pictures that I'll post.  The seats aren't the best (upper tier behind home plate $19 jobbers), but oh well. :)
