Espn.com reported a story about how this is somewhat of a common occurrence. A construction worker working on the current Yankees stadium buried a trinket in the stadium in 1920 - before the Yankees had ever won a World Series - they now have 26. A Canadian coin was frozen in center ice during the 2002 winter games and Canada won for the first time since the 50's. There was also another instance I can't remember but I have to imagine sports-related or not, certain items get "included" in the construction of all types of projects. Not counting putting hand prints and initials in wet concrete. Just for sport of conversation I’m here to defend the fan-atics.

Castignoli must have had a great chuckle himself when he saw what a scene he had caused...until he found out the humorless Yankees may press charges. Big babies. Sig.

Just think, Jimmy Hoffa has supported Wrigley field all these years.... I would think a cotton or polyester jersey would just add to the strength of the substrate, so why not leave it there?
