Anybody else think Yankee Stadium was on fire when you read this thread title?

I figured it was just another Torre-Rodriguez-Steinbrenner thread.
 
Put this on the DVR and watching it now. Amazing to me that crowd control was so awful that Reggie had the game stopped in the 9th so he could get a helmet to play right field. Hell, I felt for his safety, 30 years later.
 
And don't forget, Reggie hit a homer in his first at-bat of the '78 season, for five in a row. That was the Day it Rained Reggie Bars at Yankee Stadium.

There was only a token police presence at Game 6, when the city and Yanks argued about who should pay for services rendered, or so I remember.

Sparky Lyle said they tasted like mustard.
