Yankee fans gave Rudy Giuliani the Giancarlo Stanton treatment.

The former New York City mayor was at The Stadium to celebrate his 74th birthday on Memorial Day, with the PA announcer sharing the news with the crowd and wishing him a happy birthday.


The fans, however, greeted him with hearty boos.

1. Good for them....

he got what he deserves

[Auntie Bush]

4. Now that is what I call good news.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving person/old fa* t!

[CatMor]

5. Yes, maybe he'll get the hint but i doubt it.

[defacto7]

17. No, he'll laugh at them. He doesn't feel much.

[LoveMyCali]

60. He probably just told himself

that they were chanting Roo -dee because they love him so.

[ProudLib72]

2. New York Boos Old Jerk

[RockRaven]

3. That could not have happened...

to anyone more worthy.

[Me.]

6. Perfect

[RKP5637]

7. Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!! K&R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! n/t

[no_hypocrisy]

8. Understand this: Rudy loves NOTHING more than the Yankees.

This had to burn.

[ooky]

40. His support of corruption and evil

burns too. Nobody deserves to be booed more than him.

[Chickensoup]

9. It couldn't happen to a nicer man.

[lastlib]

33. Hell, he's being booed OUTSIDE of Yankee Stadium, too!

Constantly. 24/7. Every time his mug shows up on CNN, the boo-birds come out in force.

[Sneederbunk]

10. But Rudy heard praise.

[TeamPooka]

13. He heard "Ruuuuuuuuuuuu"

[dawg]

47. Exactly.

[Major Nikon]

11. The Yankees boo everyone, including their own players

It's kinda funny that it happened to Rudy, but Yankee fans do this so much it doesn't mean much.

[YOHABLO]

12. Says something about the NY crowd doesn't it One of their own.

[CentralMass]

14. I think it says more about Guiliani.

[quartz007]

15. Senor Giuliani grande merda de touro!

[lastlib]

34. HA!

(my Spanish is terrible, but even a dolt like me can figure that one out!)

to quartz007!

[quartz007]

48. I noticed you like JFK...me too!!

JFK was the best all around president. He was loved around the world.

[lastlib]

49. My avatar is actually a pic of Bobby....my political idol

I Really did like JFK a lot, but was a bit too young to connect with him so much before he was killed. Kind of came of age with Bobby, and the more I learned about him, the more I thought he was the political leader I would most want to emulate. The day he was killed is still one of the saddest days of my life. Other than maybe Paul Wellstone, I have yet to find any politician fill his shoes. Obama and Hillary Clinton are the only other ones that have come close.

[quartz007]

61. Bobby was great but lacked charisma of JFK

His news conferences with media were the best I have ever seen. JFK was knowledgeable on issues, and very likable. Amazing man, whose life was brutally ended too soon. He was the reason economy revived due to his economic policies and I found a job in Chicago. And he genuinely like people regardless of race, religion or national origin.

[treestar]

16. poor rudy

[empedocles]

20. Rudy deserved more,

like the Steinbrenner treatment. when Reggie Jackson hit a home run AGAINST the YankeeS. Full stadium of angry at Steinbrenner fans, shouting 'FUCK YOU STEINBRENNER'.

[BigmanPigman]

18. New Yorkers always hated him and the fucking moron.

That ks another reason New Yorkers are fantastic. I love how they let that anti-Spanish, angry lawyer have it too.

[oberliner]

22. He was elected mayor of NYC twice

[SummerSnow]

24. I never understood why and how

[oberliner]

25. Crime was bad, Dinkins had low approval numbers

Giuliani promised to clean up petty crimes and to aggressively police them. He ran up the vote in Staten Island, Queens (losing the other boroughs). The "law and order" schtick worked well, electorally. Then he took credit for the subsequent drop in crime and "cleaning up" of Times Square.

[SummerSnow]

27. I know. My dad couldnt stand him. When my sister was graduating from the

NYC police academy some years back, Giuliani was mayor. My dad said if I had a slingshot I would...

[oberliner]

28. Did he like Dinkins?

[marble falls]

39. David Dinkins was a pretty good NYC mayor, wasn't he?

[oberliner]

41. I thought so, but I know not everyone agrees

I'd say he was pretty good from what I know.

[SummerSnow]

46. Not really, he said Dinkins just loved to play tennis.

Oh and he used to call him Sweaty Dinkins cause he sweat a lot even when he was sitting still.lol

[davekriss]

19. Yay, Yankees!!

[Uncle Joe]

21. Kicked and recommended for the Yankees Fans

Thanks for the thread kpete

[SummerSnow]

23. Trump from Queens, NY and Guiliani from East Flatbush NY.

Two born and raised in NYC and NYC can't stand them. Good. I wish we could take their NYC card from them.

[Cha]

26. I should hope so.. Good ol New Yorkers!

What a fitting greeting for the former big shot.

[irisblue]

29. And then Maggie Habermann of the NYT tweets...

I'm betting MaraLago.
F that guy

[Takket]

31. Prison

[Takket]

30. Traitors should be booed. And in prison.

[FakeNoose]

32. OMG this is so awesome! New Yorkers, Yankee fans, you rule!

[Achilleaze]

35. Rudy earned the boos the old-fashioned way

by being an arrogant, sleazy, and deceitful KGOP republican operative and mouthpiece.

[jpak]

36. A message to you Rudi

[marble falls]

37. To be fair: New Yorkers would have booed Rudy even if it hadn't been his birthday.

[oberliner]

38. Here's the video of this

[DesertRat]

43. Lordy, there's a tape!

[salin]

44. I have been looking forward to some vid of this.

Lol at Guiliani!

[Honeycombe8]

42. Ouch. A New Yorker being booed at Yankee Stadium is bound to hurt. Good. nt

[Xolodno]

45. From hero to villain.

And the irony, he probably doesn't get it. In his mind he probably thinks, "yes there are a lot of liberals here....but I don't need them if I run for office, just need to please the right crowd".

[calimary]

50. Excellent!

[Jamaal510]

51. Props to those Yankee fans in presence who

let him have it.

[tenderfoot]

52. The video is from 2016

[NanceGreggs]

53. Awww ...

... this makes me downright homesick, and nostalgic for NYers' legendary talent for saying exactly what they mean - whether it's your fuckin' birthday or not.

[beachbum bob]

54. New Yorkers made me and most of the country very proud

they all know what a piece of shit Giuliani is and not afraid to voice it

[Gothmog]

55. K&R

[ecstatic]

56. Love my home town. 💘 nt

[rocktivity]

57. I had a birthday last week -- I'll consider this my official present

And while I would have expected nothing less from New York Mets fans, the fact that Yankee fans did it is -- well, the icing on the cake!


rocktivity

[demmiblue]

58. Ha ha!

[BobTheSubgenius]

59. This made my morning!!!

I laughed right out loud when I read the headline. The video was a tad anticlimactic, though - I was hoping there was going to be a little moment with him in the infield, but I'm not sure he was even there. And he probably wasn't.
