At Yankee Stadium is the sixth studio album from NRBQ, released in 1978 on Mercury Records. In keeping with the band's well-known sense of humor, the album's title is itself a bit of a joke. While it would appear the album is a live concert recording performed at the stadium, it is not; the album credits read "Recorded at Bearsville Studios, November 1977 (not at Yankee Stadium)". The packaging includes photographs of the band members in a Yankee Stadium devoid of any other visible human beings; these were taken when, as a special birthday treat for bass player and founding band member Joey Spampinato, his bandmates arranged a private visit to the ballpark. Spampinato, a Bronx native, is a lifelong Yankee fan.
