Eric’s Tip: “I recommend everyone attend a sports game. It is a nice way to spend an evening during your trip to New York, especially when you have the chance to sample some of the traditional snacks on offer in the stadiums. Don’t worry if you are not too knowledgeable about the games on offer, because you are guaranteed to have a great time with all the entertainment and atmosphere surrounding the game. Buy tickets for an American sports game in, for example, Madison Square Garden or Yankee Stadium, and enjoy the atmosphere!”
