CitiField and Yankee Stadium highlights

I came across a neat comparison of these two new stadiums the other day. 
 
CitiField harkens back to Ebbets Field and the old days of New York National League baseball
Yankee Stadium harkens back to the history of the Yankees. 
 
CitiField has the Jackie Robinson Rotunda, a tribute to a breakthrough player in the history of the game.
Yankee Stadium has the great hall, with tributes to the greats in Yankees history.
 
CitiField has the modern ballpark traits with lots of quirks (short backstop, overhang in RF, outfield wall dimensions)
Yankee Stadium resembles its historic predecessor
 
CitiField has tons of dining options including Shake Shack, BBQ, Taqueria, Catch o' the Day along with all the traditional ballpark fare
Yankee Stadium has plenty of options including a Martini Bar, sushi, sit-down restaurants and all the traditional ballpark fare.
 
CitiField has a wiffle ball field for the kids, plus a couple of batting practice cages where everyone can take a cut.
Yankee Stadium has batting practice too...right on the field...for the opposing team!!!
 
Hahahahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!!!!
