Crowd At Yankee Stadium Greets Rudy Giuliani With 'Thunderous Boos'
It’s Memorial Day ― a national holiday known for backyard barbecue and maybe a bit of booze. Unless you’re Rudy Giuliani, in which case it’s mostly just boos.
The former New York City mayor-turned-lawyer for President Donald Trump spent the day ― his 74th birthday, no less ― at a Yankees game. But when the PA announcer noted his presence and wished him a happy birthday, the crowd at Yankee Stadium reportedly wasn’t feeling it.
Rather than cheer, they booed. Hard:

The Yankees are doing birthday shout-outs on the video board between innings. They wished a happy birthday to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Let's just say he didn't have many fans in the crowd today.
