They forgot number 11:

NUMBER 11: 5 inch thick foot squares of sod ,one with w/foul line mark, from the Yankee Stadium infield and outfield that was totally removed at the conclusion of the 2004 ALCS. The Yankees,at the conclusion of the worst collapse in playoff history,removed every inch of grass from the Stadium.(Sure,they're not superstitious,they just jackhammered new cement to get rid of a boston jersey to the tune of $25,000)
Imagine what these items(sod) means to any real baseball fan east of Hartford?
$500-$1,500(foul line piece)

Providence:Photos of me removing the sod from a 40 yd dumpster on River Avenue outside of the old right field bullpen roll down gate.

The article talked about stadium seats that were sold when the renovation was done in the 70's. I know the NY parks dept. sold some a few years ago. Does anyone know if any one single group will have control of the seats and sell them after the stadium closes? A seat from the last year at the stadium would be something nice to own.
