What are we supposed to do between the wrestling match and football game at Yankee Stadium

Not my fault you (and others) don't like it when people openly speak the truth my friend! Alright, alright, alright! [cheers]
If I have trouble giving mine away I may take some of you up on the offer and sell them to you for $5/each... that is, unless the athletic department is correct in their statements that there will be a healthy secondary market to resell these garbage tickets :joy:
Lol. Some of you guys sound like children, who need to be entertained every minute of the day. If you can't waste away 90 minutes as an adult, you have a problem. Sit for awhile, go for a walk around the stadium... hell, walk up to the upper deck if you want. Have a beer. Walk around the merchandise shop. Take a dump. Then find your seats again for the game. It is really not a big deal.
There actually probably won't be time to even do all of that. If you go for a walk around the entire stadium, and go in the Mohegan sun and have a beer, and then come out, it will be time to watch warmups.

Find something to whine about and start a five-page thread here about it.
Good news is, you're at a Rutgers event in Yankees Stadium ...complaints pretty much write themselves.

Didn't you hear .... this is Dynamic Ticket Pricing in play. You will get big $$$$$$ on the secondary market.
Yankees gear? I have enough old shirts to wear when I'm painting the house.
That means you'll pay 25.00 for warm, flat soda and cold sausage on a soggy bun. And as a bonus, you'll get to wait a half hour for it.
Its friggin 90 minutes and you are in Yankee stadium. Get up, stretch your legs, walk around the stadium, pee, go back to your seat and watch the warmups. Done.
Maybe use the $20 standing room ticket with a "free beer" to exit and then return....looks to me like this is a smoke screen to let people exit and return. Did I miss something here? beers are $12 on their own yeh? Or buy the $5 tickets offered above....
I have asked the "what's plan B for inclement weather" question multiple times. No one has been able to give me an answer. It's November....it could be 30 degrees. are they wrestling outside in 30 degree weather?
Agree.
Although...Yankees site says you can bring food and a sealed bottle of water so Atleast there's that (unless somehow Rutgers/Yankees change that rule for this 'special event'.
Yes, HPSS Security Policies in effect......no food or sealed water allowed in... just for that game. lol
I didn't think you could walk all the way around?
Would be even better if it was the old one but still should be considered.
That is actually a great idea.

That would make too much sense. Plan on trying to stay warm instead as you sip on your $6 hot chocolate and watch the sun set over the Bronx. $$$$
the plan was supposed to be have enough time between the 2 to allow for removal of the wrestling mats and for the teams to warm up. 90-120 minutes max.
Here is a weird way of looking at it.. Forget beer prices.. What if the people in Houston had to pay Yankees prices for water? Or Rutgers prices for that matter.
Did you just use the tragedy in Houston to mask poor planning on the part of the Rutgers-Yankees brain trust?
I've always wondered about Plan B as well, anytime an outdoor match is scheduled. In the few examples I know of, luck was on the side of the schedulers and the weather was as good as could be hoped for. But what about when it's thirty degrees or raining? I guess they just cancel.
Let's see...the folks who don't want to go anyway are complaining that they haven't yet announced the plans for what's going to happen in the 90 minute window. I'm sure the athletic department and alumni association will each have something going on and will announce their plans at the right time. But if you're not going to Yankee Stadium anyway, why obsess, as if there's some giant clusterf**k going on in the department about the event aside from having scheduled the game there in the first place.
Maybe we should just call out the waaahhhmbulances.

The same people incessantly bitching about the Yankees, Yankee Stadium, and prices at the concessions there, need to take trips to Citi Field, Citizens Bank Park, Angel Stadium, Dodger Stadium, and AT&T Field, before complaining anymore.
Concession prices were high, when the stadium opened, no doubt, but they really haven't gone up much since, and there are much better ticket pricing options for Yankee games now. Shit, you can even buy a $15 ticket to stand and hang out in the bar areas, inside the stadium, with views of the field, and get it free beer with that $15. There are also several thousand tickets available at $10 per seat these days.
But, hey, let's just keep incessantly bitching because that's what we do here lol!!

here's a great idea for those of you who don't know what to do for 90 minutes or so: find one another and sit there and complain. The time will pass faster than you could imagine!!
