Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 4370975, member: 1609"] I remember when a box seat at Yankee Stadium wa $3.75,-4.00 , reserved *$2.50, and the bleachers were $.75 . GM George Weiss from New Haven was a notorious cheap . I think Moose Skowron was making $30k a year . He wasn’t a superstar but hit 25-30HRS and 70+RBI’s. There were guys making less. So a winners share of the World Series meant some of these guys didn’t have to get a job in the off season . Baseball was still cheap when a NFL, NHL and even NBA games were in the $20 -30 range. Prices didn’t explode for awhile. * in those days the stadium still had pillars so a reserve seat could have an obstructed view. I still don’t understand how they took the pillars out in the 1970’s.
