I remember the wall of sound at game six at the Yankees World Series 1996, as Wade Boggs rides the police horse. I lined up seventeen hours (yes, 17) for tickets and it was truly a lifetime memory.

I am surprised that Metlife stadium designers did not focus more on acoustic overhangs on the upper decks to reflect the noise of the cheaper seats back onto the field. I wonder if Woody Johnson regrets getting into bed with the Giants ?
