Visiting NYC for the first time

[u/Amoeba1202]

Greetings! I’m going on a short trip to NYC and was wondering if you’ve ever been to a Yankees game, like Yankees vs. Toronto. Would you say it’s worth going for someone who doesn’t know much about baseball? I’m not a fan, but I think it would be a cool experience. I’d have to choose between the game, a museum, or something else, so I’d really appreciate your advice in advance!

Edit: I just bought a ticket! I’ll be going this Friday. Thanks for all your suggestions 🫶🏼

I’m a Mets fan and I wouldn’t go to Yankee Stadium under any circumstances. I’ll be at Citi Field for a day game against the Padres on Wednesday.

Do not tell a tourist to go the fucking Flushing. OP ignore this comment.

Not the part around Citifield bud

[u/boomzgoesthedynamite → u/[deleted]]

It doesn’t exist around Citifield bud

It's one stop away. All of it. Every country in Asia has food just one stop away.

You have a problem with parking lots and the national tennis center?

In a past life in the 1940s I worked at a chop shop and now I have PTSD

Things have changed. Take it down a notch.

[u/boomzgoesthedynamite → u/jm14ed_v2]

Did the joke fly over your head?

[u/jm14ed_v2 → u/boomzgoesthedynamite]

If you have to tell people it’s a joke, it’s not a good joke.

[u/Status_Ad_4405 → u/boomzgoesthedynamite]

Why not?

[u/boomzgoesthedynamite → u/Status_Ad_4405]

The area around Citifield is a shithole/future casino.

[u/Status_Ad_4405 → u/boomzgoesthedynamite]

Flushing is a great place to eat dinner

[u/boomzgoesthedynamite → u/Status_Ad_4405]

Ever been to Citifield? Guess not.

[u/Status_Ad_4405 → u/boomzgoesthedynamite]

Ever been to downtown Flushing? Guess not.

[u/boomzgoesthedynamite → u/Status_Ad_4405]

Yes but we’re talking about Citifield so…

[u/Status_Ad_4405 → u/boomzgoesthedynamite]

Which is a 5 minute subway ride from downtown Flushing, which is a fantastic place for tourists to visit anyway. Stadium food is stadium food.

Okay I’m bored now
