[edit] New York, New York

"...(much as their rival, the New York Yankees play New York, New York by Frank Sinatra whenever they win at Yankee Stadium)."

Don't the Yankees play the song after every home game, win or lose? Can anyone confirm this?

Technically, the Yankees play Liza Minelli's version when they lose.

[edit] Dirty Water Drink

That dirty water drink doesn't seem notable enough for Wikipedia. "dirty water" + rum + vodka gets 168 Google hits, while, for instance, "piƱa colada" gets 32,000 and "bloody mary" gets almost 500,000. So I removed that and left the Standell's song. JoaoRicardo 03:25, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I've again removed the drink from this article. Specifically because it consisted only of the following line:

This is not a complete sentance and appears to be missing vital information. I don't know enough about this drink to fix the problem, so I removed it until someone with expertise can ammend. ~CS 17:38, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
