Real New York Yankees fans long for the days when Boston fans offered beers at Babe Ruth‘s grave, begging for an end to the Curse of the Bambino.
It’s been too long since chants of “nineteen-eighteen, nineteen-eighteen” rang out from the bleachers at the Yankee Stadium.
The Yankees have faced 14 long years since Boston shook off the curse, winning their first title since 1918. Since then, the Red Sox have added two more championships, while the Yanks have just one.
That one came in the first year of the new Yankee Stadium, and Alex Rodriguez tainted it with his steroids.
