It takes the same name as the old one, and throngs of fans still come to see the men in pinstripes, but it's hardly your father's Yankee Stadium. The new ballpark offers interesting contrasts, including more space but fewer seats, grandeur and intimacy and modern amenities with familiar field dimensions. Even the field lighting is reminiscent of the old yard. In a year of firsts, the many concession stands will be serving plenty of seconds.

- Pooty I worked for Hunt Construction. I was a foreman at Citi Field. There are 3 Phillies Jerseys buried in the ball park. As a lifelong Phillies fan, I felt it was my duty to jinx the Mets. I'm not telling you my real name for obvious reasons. The jerseys are: 1. Under the Fanwalk bricks. 2. Jackie Robinson Rotunda in the vicinity of the Ticket Office window. 3. Near the vicinity of the '47 Shop near right field. I understand how some may not believe that jerseys are buried beneath Citi Field. Thats ok, I'm not trying to convince people. Take a look at when I posted this on this forum below (LAST SUMMER) This is proof that I've been sitting on this for a while - contrary to whatMike Francesa thinks. Unlike the dope that revealed his identity for the Ortiz Jersey thing, nobody will even know who I am. Is this an original prank? No, but who cares? Did you invent every joke you ever told?? When your at Citi Field, say hi to the Burrell, Howard, and Utley jerseys beneath your feet. http://www.forums.mlb.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=ml-phillies&msg=68346.1 ...
