More Problems in Hank's House

Even an 8-game win streak can't hide the problems in the New Yankee Stadium. Two new incidents happened this week:

A rebellion of the rich. In that expensive area downstairs - the one with the empty seats - there are seemingly more waiters and waitresses, serving free food, than there are patrons.

On Wednesday, it got so crazy that the fan-elite started tossing ice cream sandwiches over the moat to peasants sitting in the $400 "cheap" seats. This did not sit well with Toastie security forces, who began scolding their most prized customers. The lecture from security prompted a guy in the rich seats to say: "I paid for this food, I can do with it what I want!"

The security also refused to let Twins radio broadcaster John Gordan go to the team bus even though he had the right credentials.

The Yankee police even want to limit bloggers' ability to get the word out by banning computer bags, laptops, and video cameras from the stadium and not offering wifi. Most other parks offer free wifi and let you bring in a laptop and a video camera.
