There are a lot of positive reviews on here. I didn't have the same experience, and wonder if that's because they're in a different tax bracket than me? Let's elaborate. 1) When a baseball stadium costs $1.5 Billion (yes, with a B) dollars, you have to generate that revenue from somewhere. And no, selling nude photos of Alex Rodriguez isn't... More

This was one of the best experiences of my life. I was lucky enough to obtain a set of tickets for the Legends Suite for a Saturday afternoon game. This was my first time at the Legends and I was told before I went that it would be better than you could dream. That was a 100% true statement. In... More

We bought tickets in the UK, had them posted to us expensive postage. Probably could have bought them in the stadium. Given free baseball NY hats :) very clean very well organised. One of the friendliest places in NY Yankees where staff are concerned. It did seem that this is more of a social event for the fans than a... More

Visiting NY for the first time I was delighted to discover the Yankees were playing at home when we were there. I booked tickets before we left (I really didn't need to as the stadium wasn't full). Being a baseball novice, but a keen supporter of AFL football and cricket back home, I was surprised at the behavior of the... More

Majestic and flamboyant..."The House that Steinbrenner Built" is an awesome cathedral in a not-so-great Bronx Area, but it's Ok...The energy in the game here is unique as it is every single detail from Monumental Park to napkins with the Yankees logo...This is the Mecca of baseball, period...Come at least once in your lifetime!!

Visited to watch the Yankees play the Astros recently. First baseball game ever. Stadium is very nice, clean and plenty of food/drink options in all areas. Access was easy on the subway from Grand Central. Recommended.

This new stadium is big. It is not necessary to book a stadium tour unless you want to visit some VIP rooms, but they open approx 1-2h prior to the game so you will have enough time to walk accross the stadium. Get some drinks and eat, that where this is al about !! Do not get tickets far above,... More

The stadium is used for so many events like the NYU commencement ceremonies and baseball games. Nice place to enjoy a show.

Very easy to get to from Manhattan. It is right off the subway. A large food selection. Tight secruity. Yankee museum is a hidden gem.
