The Ultimate Celebrity Yankees Fan List

I couldn't open your webpage, but is that phony Billy Crystal on the list? This guy wore a Mets cap in "City Slickers." It just so happened that the movie was released in 1991, when the Yankees were in the midst of their worst stretch since the early 1970s. What a tool.

The guy directed 61*, his idol growing up was Yankees outfielder Mickey Mantle, he paid $239,000 for a Mickey Mantle glove, and he supports his team by frequently attending Yankee games.

On March 12, 2008 as a 60th birthday gift, he signed a one day minor league contract with New York Yankees. On March 13, 2008 he played his only game with the Yanks vs. the Pittsburgh Pirates at DH wearing #60. In his first and only at bat he made contact with a foul ball but struck out. He received a standing ovation. Just one day later, the Yanks officially released him.

What else do you want from the guy?

Wear a Yankee cap even when your team sucks. You can say it's just a movie, but it didn't reflect well on him.
