Baseball fans beware. The conspiracy theorists have infiltrated your stadiums. They might even be in the next seat over or two seats up. They might even be the beer guys running up and down the concrete steps. This happened what happened at Yankee Stadium Thursday.
The Yankees were playing the Toronto Blue Jays. Then, Twitter world went wild as the conspiracy theorists unfurled their humongous banner. It read:
‘TRUMP WON.
‘Save America.’
Even though he was not at the stadium, the banner drew unprecedented booes from the crowd. People like President Joe Biden, the real president. And it appeared that Donald Trump could not have won even one term without help from the Russians in 2016 and 2020.
Lindsey Adler, who covers the Yankees for The Athletic, described the action:
‘Lots of booing here after some jabronis unfurled a ‘TRUMP WON’ banner off the second deck. (He didn’t.) Now we have extremely loud cheering as the conspiracy theory banner people are led out of the section by security.’
New York, Trump’s home until it was not, does not like the man who has lived in Gotham City for his entire adult life. Yet, he only “earned” 23% of the vote, The Gotham Gazette reported.
Reality TV Junkie started off the Twitter storm as people’s post-coronavirus outing turned angry:
‘Feels SO good to be at a live sporting event!!! Finally!!!!!! #letsgoyankees #Yankees #yankeestadium’
‘Took my kids to their first baseball game at a mostly empty Yankee Stadium. 7-year-old, on the way out: “It feels like the corona is ending. I like it.”’
‘Corey Kluber pitches @yankeestadium tomorrow’
‘Bringing in my 29th birthday with a Red Sox vs Yankees game on June 4th! This’ll be my first time back at Yankee Stadium since 2019 =‘) can’t wait’
‘Yankee Stadium tonight. We have issues.’
