David Ortiz is a star, but some Yankees fans plan to bring him back to Earth by giving him the moon.
That’s the goal of MoonBigPapi.com, a website created with the end game of having 10,000 Yankees fans banding (and bending) together to give Ortiz a 20,000-cheek salute during his final game at Yankee Stadium on Sept. 29.
“When Ortiz said, ‘I would like ... at my last game for the people at Yankee Stadium to give me a standing ovation,' I said to myself, ‘Yeah, and people in Hell want ice-water, too,’ ” said the site's operator and curator, known by his screen name of Local Bargain Jerk.
