We paid 50 bucks a pop for left field tickets. We were just a couple seats back from the field, in prime home run territory. So, there were no 23 cent tickets. Although, there are 5 dollar tickets in the outfield right beside the batters eye. These seats are what they call "limited view seats". Reason being you can'[t see the opposite field. It's insane, but its also one of the only things you can get in nyc for just 5 clams.
About the hat: I had no problems at all with the residents of Yankee Stadium as a St Louis fan. They regarded me as an exotic oddity. I think they respect the Cards because they never have to really play them besides maybe 3 times a year. And rightfully so, as the Cards are the only team in baseball that can look the Yankees in the eye statistically. It helped also that the scrubs were the opposing team because everyone knew I was on their side. There was one incident in a bathroom when a BoSox fan informed me that "the cawds suck"
Yankee fans are loud-mouthed bastards but I think Cardinal Nation is safe.
Did you catch any hell for the STL hat?
