Yankees ticket revenue dropped 21% last season from year before

By JIM BAUMBACH/NEWSDAY

The Yankees' ticket and luxury box revenue declined nearly 21 percent last season from the year before, which the team attributes to missing the playoffs for the first time in five years and injuries to star players.

The Yankees reported $278.8 million in ticket and luxury box revenue for the 2013 season, according to the team's latest financial filing, down from $352.9 million the year before. The $278.8 million included postseason refunds or credits of $21.2 million. The 2013 figure represents the team's lowest single-season ticket revenue since it moved into the new Yankee Stadium in 2009, when ticket revenue totaled $397 million. Overall, from 2009 to 2013, the team's ticket and luxury box revenue declined 29.8 percent.

I WAS a Yankee fan. I rooted for them because my older brothers rooted for the Mets. (That made sense when I was a kid.) I remember Reggie Jackson, Bobby Mercer and other players of that era.
Now I HATE them. They are nothing other than corporatists sucking public money.
Fuck 'em
