In honor of the start of the 2010 MLB season I’m counting down my favorite baseball “Rejected Memories” that we’ve done.

#9

Rejected Yankee Stadium Memories – Luxury Box Seats

REGRET – That I am actually friends with this guy in real life.

LITTLE KNOWN FACT #1 – That was the third time I wore that shiny black button down shirt and sunglasses combination and looked like an asshole.

LITTLE KNOWN FACT #2 - It was the only time I wore it to look like an asshole on purpose.

MISTAKE – Knowing these people in real life.

FAVORITE PART – Separating every syllable in the sentence, “my company’s not gonna buy them.”

THAT IS COOL – This video was both on the nose and ahead of it’s time. When the new Yankee Stadium opened up in 2009 news reports began describing how the gigantic rise in ticket prices for box seats had led a number of both individual parties and corporations to not renew their season tickets – CLICK HERE
And still to this day the box seats behind home plate remain largely empty. And Wall Street douchebags like the dude in this video remain largely unsexed. Well, maybe not. But now at least it takes a couple extra dates for them to get some.
