For reasons unclear to me, this year the Major League All-Star Game, which used to be a nice, little mid-season diversion and a chance to showcase the game's best players, has been replaced with a big, fawning, obsequious celebration of all things Yankee. It's a Bronxapalooza. Every media outlet in the country is joining in on the unctuous toadying to the point there's nowhere you can hide from the everyone's list of The Great Moments in Yankee Stadium history. Babe Ruth. Gehrig. Mr. October. College football. Boxing. Concerts. Popes. Giambi's porn 'stache. Everywhere they're joining in on the groveling at the steps of the House That Ruth Built as they await the opening of The House That the New York Government's Woefully Misplaced Priorities Built. Everywhere, that is, except here. So without further ado we give you;

The Worst Moments in Yankee Stadium History:

11. Gotham Bowl

The 1962 game featured Nebraska against Miami and was played in front of only 6,100 people. Still it was a much bigger success than the previous Gotham Bowl game when Oregon State played no one in front of zero people because organizers couldn't line up an opponent. Apparently fear of the Joker was keeping people away and the game was never held again.
