Ready for takeoff

By

Tom Kasinski took a pass over Yankee Stadium this week and found the stadium awash in colors. From the WCBS 880 newschopper, he snapped the blue shot, above, and photos of the new home decked out in red, pink and green. Outside of the weird space ship effect, the stadium looks like it’s just about ready for the mid-February completion date. As much as I don’t like the idea of moving out of The Yankee Stadium, I’m excited to see the New Yankee Stadium up close and personal.

    That’s just us running our standard test pattern on the LED ring so we can see if any of the LEDs are burned out or shorted

      Us?

      Of course. I forgot that the entire deck is ringed in an LED display.

        Company I work for in South Dakota is doing the LED ring, all the outside LED boards, the displays in the walk-ways and the two smaller video boards. The only reason that Mitsubishi got the huge video board is they gave them a huge discount in exchange for free advertisement (but we still got the Meadowlands contract, suck it Mitsubishi)

    As soon as individual game tickets go on sale, I am (going to attempt to) buy tickets for the first series at home against Cleveland, it overlaps April break which is GREAT. I just can’t wait for the new stadium to open up.
