Renovations to Yankee Stadium began immediately after the 1973 season. While Yankee Stadium was being renovated the Yankees played at Shea Stadium, home of the New York Mets. Parts of Yankee Stadium were completely demolished. Changes were made to eliminate the posts and columns that supported the upper deck.
A sellout crowd of 54,610 packed the building, many arriving hours early, as the Yankees set an all-time season attendance record of 4,298,543. The all-time Yankee Stadium attendance mark thus inched to freeze at 151,959,005.
