Dear Yankees Ticket Licensee,
On July 15, 2008, the best players in Major League Baseball ("MLB") will provide "The House That Ruth Built" with an All-Star send-off when the New York Yankees (the "Yankees") host MLB's 79th Midsummer Classic. This year marks the first time that the All-Star Game will be held in a ballpark celebrating its final season.
The 2008 All-Star Game will be the fourth one held at Yankee Stadium (the "Stadium") and the eighth time that New York City has welcomed the event. No other stadium or ballpark has hosted more All-Star Games. The Stadium previously hosted the Midsummer Classic in 1939, 1960, and 1977.
In celebration of MLB's All-Star Summer '08, New York City will host five action-packed days of events. MLB's biggest stars will descend on New York City for what will truly be a magical experience for all baseball fans but, more importantly, all Yankees fans. The All-Star Summer Events are scheduled to begin on Friday, July 11, 2008 at the Jacob K. Javits Center with the opening of the DHL All-Star FanFest - the largest interactive baseball spectacular event in the world, which provides fans of all ages a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience 40 interactive actions and includes appearances from MLB Legends.
