What Happened to Yankee Stadium? ABANDONED?

Arguably the most historic sports venue in American History, the original Yankee Stadium, home to the New York Yankees, saw more world series, iconic moments, and Hall of Fame athletes than any other venue. In its existence, 37 of 83 world series were played there, with the yankees winning all but one of their 27 titles at the stadium, playing a total of 6,581 games, and total attendance over its lifetime topping 151 million. From its humble beginnings as a rival to Manhattan's Polo Grounds and home to Babe Ruth, through decrepit times in the Bronx, to the place people from everywhere in the world knew the name of, the stadium evolved and had dramatic alterations to keep it current and to keep it a safe and fun place to watch a ball game. Its days were finite however, and after playing 85 years there, George Steinbrenner negotiated with Mayors, Ed Koch, David Dinkins, Rudy Giuliani, and finally Mike Bloomberg to get a new stadium built across the street, with the old stadium and 85 years of history entirely erased. Join me in this video as we tell the complete story of the Cathedral of Baseball, and learn what happened to old Yankee Stadium. What Happened to Yankee Stadium? ABANDONED?
