Mikehall – I have probably been to over 400 games (i have the stubs to prove them), however this is not about the “Kedusha” at the Meadowlands or gate D at Jets games or Yankees RedSox playoffs or the bleacher creatures being frum. I agree with you, there is NO difference between this or an airport, etc.

All I said was “if you are embarrased to go to a place with a Yarmulka, you probably shouldn’t be going there at all”

And the response was “Would you be embarrassed to walk into a baseball game where there sell KOSHER FOOD (The employees at the stand usually wear kippot)”

How is that an answer?? Why are people embarrassed to wear Yarmulkas at games?

I have worn my yarmulka at times (at least the National Anthem) to the World Series, NBA and NHL Finals – I am still trying to

figure out the connection between games and being embarrassed to wear a Yarmulka – somebody please help!

And lets be honest – the crowd isn’t exactly Kosher 🙂 VERY FUN but NOT Kosher!
