While a pair of Shea Stadium's seats are being sold at $869 (Mr. Met was shilling them earlier this week and they have been going fast), it looks like seats from Yankees Stadium will be sold at over twice that. According to the NY Post, the city and Yankees are thinking of selling a pair of seats for $1,923. Apparently the Yankees are looking to sell off much of everything from the stadium, and as the season comes to a close (maybe even sooner than the Yankees want), we can expect more insanity. On opening day at Yankee Stadium, some fans tried to steal the bunting/banner.
