No team in any sport is more storied, more famous, or more celebrated than the Yanks. Approach the stadium for the first time and a childish excitement grabs even the most dispassionate sports fan.

From the mystique of Yankee Stadium to the electricity of the thousands who congregate in the Bronx, the magic that is Yankee baseball will envelope anyone.
