Fan Kicked Out of Yankee Stadium for Daring To Take a Potty Break

Maybe you should check your history Bernie...
George took over the Yankees in 1973, helped get the Stadium rebuilt, and got them back to post-season play in 1976.
During the years you say were a 'fan', they won 2 Championships in 4 World Series appearances.
And after losing in the playoffs and World Series in 80 & 81, they were 2nd to different teams almost every year in the 80's, but there was no wild card then. The Yankees won more games than any other team during the 80's.
Thanks for moving to San Diego.

what the heck does that have to do with the price of eggs in china?

Dear Robert, my only wish to you is that you should get a blader infection. You sound like a guy who has no trouble pissing in your pants.

Some people have physical issues. When they must use the bathroom.....it is now! Not everyone can afford Poise pants as you...obviously can.

God Bless America is not our national anthem.

As to whether the guy is a 3-year-old girl, maybe he had a UTI.
That's a ur-i-na-ry tract in-fec-tion. In words you can un-der-stand, Rob-ert, he may have been sick. He may have had in his pee-pee what you have in your head. And even if he didn't, what's a city police officer doing enforcing patriotism, which would be under federal juris- oh, sorry, turf.

Mr. Leonardi,
Have you ever had prostate cancer? Have you been fine one minute only to accidently pee your pants the next because you couldn't get to the bathroom quickly enough? Or, perhaps driving down the highway; but nowhere to stop to use the restroom because the urge to urinate came out from now where? Or, on the job, you working a machine that cannot be left unattended and then the cancer damaged bladder and prostate tells you its time to void? Well, my husband has! He was exposed to every kind of chemical there was in Vietnam and while he was honored by a grateful nation for his actions, he acquired cancer at the tender age of 53. His life was saved, but everything else went to hell. Ejected from a baseball game because of "God Bless America". The God I know would have excused my husband to go to the restroom! What has happened to this country? Our freedoms to do as our framers intended are slowly being taken away by the government little by little. Oh, and if you asking does my husband wear Depends? No, but its becoming apparent that he will; and they don't work that well. How sad that is.

Walt, You are a classic example of how somepatriotic Americans go overboard. You rant about the freedom we have in these country as you try to defend denying people freedom. Don't you see how silly that is? Freedom is good so you deny it to people so show how much you love freedom?
How can you praise our freedom yet force people to listen sit to a song? Don't you see how absurb that sounds?

Most patriotic Amercians know that freedom means that some Amercians may not behave or think the way we do.

Yes it would be great if everyone wanted to pay homage to those serving our country but freedom means people shouldn't have to. You and the Yankees are free to hate/dislike those people but not free to force them to do want you want them to.

Freedom mean freedom for everyone not just freedom for those who think/feel/act like you. If that is not your definition then someday people who don't think/feel/act like you may force you to do things you don't agree with in the name of 'freedom'.

A bunch of "ginzos" commenting on a last name of an American born person is hysterical. Funny but last I checked my American History books, Italy sided with the Nazis against everyone else including America. If you dont like anything french then get rid of the Statue of Liberty. France gave it to us. Lets send her back. Lets send most of our paper products and car parts back to Canada too since there are "french-speaking" people there. Better yet lets ship everyone back to the countries their forefathers came from. Ignorance is alive and well in New York and online.
Not like he stood up during the anthem. He stood up during a song and I hope he sues the heck out of everyone involved. But then again NYPD make their own rules up like giving that loser A-Rod an escort to a game because he was going to be late. Maybe he was too busy screwing around again!!

Walt, You really can't be that ignorant. I wish he had wipped it out and taken a leak right thee. Then what would the cop have done. I'm as "patriotic" as the next guy, but how can this possibly be justified to deny someone of a humanly body function. This is the most obserd thing ever. And for the character that replied enforcing patriotism is a job for the Feds, YOU CAN'T ENFORCE PATRIOTISM. You can hate this country and still live here...Let's get a grip on reality in this country.

*high fives Bob*

The country I was born in has freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Whether other fans or the freaking Yankees like it, the guy has a right to pee whenever he feels like peeing. And that "rule" is totally unenforceable in a court of law.

Hope he takes them for a ride.

Patriotism isn't a song. It's something far less tangible. And it means different things to different people.

I would hope he'd sue the hell out of the NYPD, except you and I would wind up paying that, just as Giuliani's First Amendment violations cost us so much.
