Viewing Hours

The New York Yankees (nee Highlanders) will pass away quietly at home this weekend. 

The team, originally a native of Baltimore, has lived in the Bronx for many years, with the exception of 1903-1922, when they lived in Manhattan and two years in the mid-1970s when they resided in Queens.

In lieu of flowers, fans are asked to donate to the Steinbrenner Brothers Poverty Fund for Billionaires, or to attend a game and spend several hundred dollars on tickets and drinks.

Viewing hours are below.

There is NO WAY that we can beat this team. NO WAY.

They also spent a few weeks or a month in Queens during the 98 season.
