What’s the best way to show support for rookie sensation Aaron Judge? These New York Yankees fans have your answer.
A group of about a dozen New York Yankees fans in took to the right field seats of Yankee Stadium during their Thursday night contest with the Houston Astros and showed up in style.Dressed in wigs and robes, the fans showed rookie phenom Aaron Judge support in the greatest way possible: as Judges. Yes, you read that right.
The group, who had tickets about seven rows deep in right field, also held up a sign saying “ALL RISE…,” which was also the headline of the Sports Illustrated magazine that Judge featured on two days ago.
Judge, who became the youngest player in major league history to hit 13 home run in his team’s first 26 games, entered action on Thursday tied with Freddie Freeman and Bryce Harper for the greatest WAR in baseball.
According to the Daily News, the group “rallied the troops” after seeing that there were no Judges at the stadium before them. Thank goodness they did, as this is arguably the funniest yet most creative expression of fandom and support you could possibly show for a player.
Kudos, gentleman.
