New York Yankees
It doesn’t get more all-American than rooting for the home team at Yankee Stadium. Since 2009, this legendary baseball team has had a new home – the gleaming, state-of-the-art, $1.5 billion Yankee Stadium, which replaced the original 1923 stadium next door. The venue may be new, but a trip to watch a baseball game here remains a rite of passage for all New Yorkers. The season lasts from April through October, but summer temps lend best to open-air seating. Learn more
