ALCS Game Three FREE at Yankee Stadium

[vwnut13]

Yankee Stadium won't be the site of Game 3 of the American League Championship Series on Monday. But that doesn't mean it will be empty.

The Yankees announced on Sunday that they will open the Stadium Field Level and Great Hall to the public to watch the Yankees face the Angels in Anaheim as New York tries to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the ALCS.

"We wanted to provide a place for our fans to come together to cheer for our team, even if the game itself is taking place across the country," Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner said in a news release. "This is a way of saying 'Thank you' for their continued support."

Turnstiles between Gates 4 and 6 will open at 3:30 p.m. ET for the 4:13 p.m. game -- broadcast on FOX -- and fans can watch it in the Great Hall or in the open sections of the Field Level. Food and concession stands, as well as NYY Steak and Hard Rock Café, will be open and available to fans.

The decision to open the stadium was made after consultation with Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.

"I thank the New York Yankees for opening their amazing new stadium to the community, and I hope that people from all over the city will come out to cheer for the Yankees and share in what's sure to be a great night right here in the Bronx," Diaz Jr. said in the release.

From what I have read it will be free, but who knows.
One thing for sure is that they will make money on food so..

I don't see how anybody would want to sit outside tomorrow in the cold AND RAIN!!! to watch the Yankees play on the screen and not on the field. Great idea for them, but I don't see why people would want to go (I know a ton will go) but how are they also going to keep track of the amount of people in the stadium. What happens if more people than seats show up. I mean since it's free people obviously can afford to get in.
