Yankee Stadium right now: Uprights and hash marks

Rutgers plays Iowa State in the Pinstripe Bowl Dec. 30. I can't say I've ever made it out to the stadium for a non-Yankees game, but I bet it would be an interesting experience.

Anyone ever been to a bowl game at Yankee Stadium? If yes, I'd love to hear what it's like. If not, do you like the idea?

The stadium is only a few years old and it already has hosted an array of non-baseball events. The first occasion was actually a prayer service, held by pastor Joel Osteen.



Here's a look at the first boxing match in the Bronx since 1976: Miguel Cotto vs. Yuri Foreman on June 5, 2010.


The stadium's first Pinstripe Bowl was a year ago to the day of the upcoming game, featuring Syracuse and Kansas State.



My sister and a few other friends of mine made it out to the first concert at Yankee Stadium Sept. 13, 2010. I heard it was amazing.



Another friend of mine attended one of Paul McCartney's two shows at Yankee Stadium this past summer. Here's a video account of the famous Beatle singing "Golden Slumbers."
