This gang of happy baseball fans was photographed in 1923 when the House That Ruth Built was first opened for business. Purchased it from the late Jimmy Catanzaro a decade or so back.

Well, it's the 100th anniversary year of Yankee Stadium, the House That Ruth Built after the Yankees were kicked out of the Polo Grounds. Went to a game back in May vs the Rays, and there was no mention of that milestone whatsoever anywhere in new Yankee Stadium.
Here is a plaque I modified to reflect the history better than the way it was made, and stays on topic.

Please note that the girls were relegated to the back row, nearly out of sight. How sexist.
