Default The Yankees have become very arrogant

As a diehard NY baseball fan it is sad what the Yankees have been doing. Fans have seen their season tickets for decent seats gone up at least 5 times from last years prices(many being season ticket holders for 20+ years) and charging $32 for parking. This is not to mention the $2600 per game ticket fiasco. The Yankees have become very arrogant to the average fan not letting down to the field level without a proper ticket during batting practice(this might change slightly because of public outcry). The latest disgrace as reported in todays Daily News is that Monday after the Twins game they refused to let John Gordon the longtime Twins anouncer on the team bus even though he had the proper credentials and he was escorted away by security and had to wait an hour to get on the bus. This is just one of the horror stories coming out of the new Yankee Stadium. Attendance is down almost 7 thousand a game. As nice as the new stadium is the refurbished original was just fine as the fans were right on top of the action and they drew over 4 million every season since Alex Rodriguez joined the Yankees. It is sad but it seems like the new ballpark was built to such ecess to cater to the wealthy at a cost of 1.3 Billion dollars. In this economy the Yankees excesses are backfiring. Arrogance will cost the Yankees in the long run as they drive the average fan away.
