31Mar10

Although it may be offseason for the Yankees team and coaches, there is one new member of the Yankees family that hasn’t had much of a break. The Yankees’ World Series Trophy has traveled around the globe, during the off-season, to visit some exciting fans. From the Dominican Republic to Tokyo, the trophy has visited some of the world’s biggest Yankees’ fans for once in a lifetime photo ops.

The tour began in early January and is continuing until June 19 at a stop in Staten Island. According to a recent article in the New York Times fans have waited up to two-hours to take a picture with the championship trophy…in the cold. That is dedication! I may stand outside for two-hours to take a picture with Derek Jeter, but a trophy… I don’t think so!
