    My trip to Yankee Stadium 5/1/2014 LOADS OF PICS !!!!

    So My buddy Mike calls me and tells me he has scored passes from Yankees/Steiner to be on the field for batting practice . Me being the Mets fan that I am , I was thinking about it but was like What the heck!

    When I get there ..... All I see is this :

    The Entrance to Yankee Stadium !!!!







    My heart started to pump a little when I received this :






    After getting the pass , The rep walked us thru the underlings of Yankee Stadium , I can tell you this, I was taking it all in .

    My eyes just grew wider as we stepped foot on the field of Yankee Stadium .

    This caught my eye






    Ichiro chatting with an old friend



    I look to my left and I see this :



    I yell over to Cano in Spanish and he looked right at me. I explained that we have a mutual friend and he had a grin on his face when I mentioned his name. We spoke for a while and he even took a picture with me and signed my baseball.


    I seen Felix Hernandez and asked him in Spanish if he wasn't busy if he could sign for me . End Result :






    Right when I think things couldn't get any better , over walks Reggie Jackson !!!! He asks us how are we doing and offers to sign for us !!! Of course I didn't say no !!!!



    I was already on cloud 9 when I asked my friend to take a picture of me :

    I didn't even notice that Jeter photobombed me !!!! I realized that after I turned around !



    I then took these pics




    Jeter smiled and said " I hope you got my good side " and walked over and started to sign for me and the other 3 ppl I was with !!!

    I got this pic off of the Yes Network Facebook page . That is Jeter shaking my hand after he signed for me !!!!



    Jackpot !!!! :flex:



    Here are the balls I got signed ... I am very happy !!!! I could care less about the sidepanel !!!



    All in all , I had an amazing time and made memories that will last a lifetime !!!

    Great photos and thanks for sharing! I still find the only signing the side panel a bit ridiculous.

      Nice photos! I think that's Ichiro's interpreter.

      I would have gone too despite being a Mets fan too!

            Very cool story and pictures.

            Felix for me has always been friendly and willing to sign.

              It is a minor agreement that he has with Steiner. If you want sweetpot, it will have to go through them or unless Jeter forgot about it.

              But on the other hand, I have seen in person, Jeter signed on sweetspot - for little girls or toddler.



              As for the OP - your friend paid a pretty penny for it. And if he did get it for FREE, he ALREADY paid a pretty penny.


              Next time - if there is a next time, wore a gamer or have a game used baseball -- it will make the trip even better!

                I knew exactly why he didn't sweet spot the sig and I still feel its a bit absurd.

                  What I don't get is, why do passes like those say no autographs? Makes no sense. If a player is willing to sign, why shouldn't they be allowed? Obviously the Yanks didn't enforce the rule..
