Even with No. 149 shaping up today; Lehigh-Lafayette No. 150 is already on fans minds

FROM KEITH GROLLER


Today should be a special day at Goodman Stadium with a league title and playoff berth on the line, but next year's Lehigh-Lafayette game at Yankee Stadium has a chance to be perhaps the most special in the history of this storied rivalry.
With reports that over 30,000 tickets have already been sold, next year's game could be one of the most coveted tickets in Lehigh Valley sports history.
If you don't have your plans already firmed up, better start thinking about it soon.
Two local guys, good guys I've known for years, are superb at running bus trips, and they have trips lined up for No. 150 for those who don't want to battle the traffic themselves.
One very good option is Chuck Frantz and the Lehigh Valley Yankee Fan Club. No one knows how to get to Yankee Stadium better than Chuck.
Here's Chuck's information:

The Yankees are now going to open up the 400 level because of the demand. They are expecting to sell it out at 50,000 people.

 Below is the information for our Members:
