Yanks face age discrimination suit

This little tidbit of news didn’t garner much attention on Friday afternoon, but the Yankees have been sued for age discrimination. A group of 13 waiters, aged 66 to 80, have claimed that the Yanks fired them when they closed the old Yankee Stadium and hired younger — and cheaper — workers instead. Supposedly, a Yankee official said to one of the waiters when firing them, “What could someone 73 years old offer the Yankees?” The waiters are asking for $3 million, and the team is, of course, denying the allegations.
