It would be absurd to prosecute this construction worker for a harmless stunt.
The guy doesn't deserve that.

Change the words "Yankee's Stadium" to "Busch Stadium" and the words "Red Sox Shirt" to "Cubs Shirt" and how would you feel about this individual?

that he was a jerk Cub fan...but I wouldn't want him prosecuted.
Heck, I'd give him points for sneaking it in there. Tell me you wouldn't love to do that to the Cubs when Wrigley finally self implodes and they have to build a new place.

I give him credit for a pulling a good, perfectly harmless prank that has gotten Yanks fans' panties in a wad.
Considering prosecution is just petty and probably a waste of time anyway.

I can't believe they went spent the time and money to look for the shirt when they found that it was there.

"But then we decided, why reward somebody who had really bad motives and was trying to do a really bad thing?"
Burn in hell, really bad motives guy.
Does anyone remember when a BoSox fan put a red sock on the statue of Brock in '04? That was funny. Little pranks like these just add to the story.

I would've thought it was hilarious.
I have to admit, I liked the initial response.

I don't even see what they can prosecute him for. That part makes absolutely no sense.
