Get ready to have a heart attack! The new yankee stadium the biggest, newest, and most expensive stadium on the market... and gets away with it for good reason. The $1.5 billion stadium is like a mall with a baseball field in the middle. The great thing about it is the food... they have a 'canyon' of popcorn, nachoes that have 1,410 calories (!!!!), a 'bag' peanuts with 1,360 (must be a realllly big bag), and their 'cup' of cheese fries has only a mere 1,341 calories. Sheesh.. it's no wonder fans want to come to this stadium.. the food must be wonderful because calories=mouth-watering goodness. And the Yankees aren't even apologetic about it; the fans are craving the crazy amenities. Even as the Cleveland Indians busted out a huge win of 10-2 against the Yankees, more than 48,271 fans can attest to the excitement and prestige of the new stadium.
I think that to have a stadium with more amenities for fans is a great idea to bring in new and existing fans. This new stadium will create a lot of hype and promote coming attractions for the Yankee fan and the curious bystander of the sport. Hopefully the money was well spent as the price tag is quite large for a new stadium, but with all the extras incorporated into the surrounding field, I think it will pay off as a great new attraction for the Yankees. People who arn't even baseball fans will be attracted to the staduim just to experience the new feel of it. It will be interesting to see how the stadium will be marketed to consumers for all the new amenities.
