I haven't spent more than four days of my life in NYC, so it's not surprising that I have no memory of Yankee Stadium, which is due to be torn down this winter. I actually did attend a game at Shea Stadium, also closing this year. The game I saw was in 1965, when we went to the New York World's Fair. Even though I saw Koufax beat the Mets, my bigger memory of the Fair is probably seeing the Aston-Martin used in the James Bond film "Goldfinger."
Anyway, it's the end of a baseball era in NYC today, so goodbye to both of those concrete edifices.
