More Yankees' Favortie Stadium Memories

I've already posted Mariano's and Tino's favorite Stadium memories, today there were several more articles about former or current Yankees, and their favorite memories. This article has quotes from Don Mattingly, Joe Torre, Lou Piniella, Dave Righetti, and Don Zimmer.

Here's an article from today's Daily News about Jorge Posada's favorites. Catching Wells' perfect game is on top of his list.

Here's an article about Paul O'Neill's favorite memories, and as you might imagine the "Paul O'Neill" chants during the 2001 series is number one. Another one about Pauly from the Daily News. And here's one about David Cone's and his favorite memory; his perfect game.

And longtime Yankees trainer Gene Monahan shares his memories of a building he's called home for 33 years.

All of these articles are worth the read. It's great to see how much these players love that place.

There will probably be several more articles like this during the next few days, if there are I will post them.

I just read about that, that's very cool. Have fun man, you're very lucky that you're going to be there.

yeah its amazing that i never walked through monument park in 27 years and i was dissapointed that the tours sold out so early in the year. i bet that everyone there is gonna be on a short leash. i hope nobody does anything stupid to ruin it for everyone else.

Enjoy it dude. It's gonna be great. Nobody will ruin it. The only people who will be there will be people who understand why they're there.
