But that isn't what MOST people think of when they imagine New York. Perhaps for many of the people who live there, but there are hundreds of millions of people throughout this world who couldn't indentify the Yankees Stadium from any other stadium (and they mostly likely could care less that they don't know the difference).

New York city has much better icons that represent what a great city it is.

Gooey butter cake is a made made structure that represents St. Louis.
I whole-heartedly agree.

A lot of people don't associate with the Yankees. They like the Mets instead, so I don't see it.

lol That's in Europe. It's right in the center of the square. I'd go up to it and wave even if I couldn't see inside it just to creep out the dude in it.

I'd recognize Yankee Stadium, but most people probably wouldn't.

Well, that's good for them. Yankee Stadium, TO ME, represents this city along with Madison Square Garden.

Once again not everyone in NYC follows baseball

If you are going to use that analogy Sports are a way of "life" in every large city in the U.S then.


Hollywood sign represents Los Angeles.
Sears tower represents Chicago...maybe?
