C’Mon, Having a Curse isn’t THAT Bad…

Turns out a Red Sox fan buried a David Ortiz jersey in the concrete of the new Yankee stadium:

Buried Red Sox JerseyA construction worker’s bid to curse the New York Yankees by planting a Boston Red Sox jersey in their new stadium was foiled when the home team removed the offending shirt from its burial spot.

After locating the shirt in a service corridor behind what will be a restaurant in the new Yankee Stadium, construction workers jackhammered through the concrete Sunday and pulled it out.

A spokesman for Bronx District Attorney Robert Johnson said Sunday he did not know whether any criminal charges might apply.

“It’s typical Yankees,” Castignoli told the Boston Herald on Monday. “It’s not like I snuck in there. It didn’t do any structural damage. I didn’t put anyone in harm’s way.”

Read it all here!

I find it funny that the Yankees really made that effort to pull it out, and that the guy did it in the first place. Having a curse on you isn’t that bad…we’re on our 100th year without a World Series win and the Cubs are as popular as ever. In the words of Mark DeRosa - every game is a home game! Hmm, but having that World Series win WOULD be nice…

Did they dig up that guy holding the Jersey too? He looks like a zombie.
