From MLB.com:
In addition to ceremonies at the final regular season game scheduled to be played on Sept. 21 against the Orioles, a gala celebration is being considered in November as the final event before the scene shifts across the street to the new Yankee Stadium, Hal Steinbrenner told MLB.com in an interview in his Legends Field office.
“There’s going to be things at the actual game, but we’re also looking to have a closing ceremony in November,” said the 39-year-old youngest son of George Steinbrenner, the team’s patriarch and principal owner since 1973. “We’re strongly considering it and it will be a very nice event.
“We’re working on it right now. We’re talking to people and some big names in terms of what they want to do. And it may be music, it may be a comedian, it may be an emcee. There will certainly be a lot of videos and things like that. And, of course, bringing back the old Yankees. That’s something we’ve always done.”
Although this isn't the worst idea in the world, to me, the closing ceremony for a Stadium should be the final game played there.
