I really wanted to include that, actually! The only issue was I was trying very hard to make sure every event was within the five boroughs of NYC. I love the idea of expanding what sports one can see being played professionally around here.

Any recommendations for getting to Mount Vernon from NYC?

Would love to get to one of these games but seems like a bit of a hassle without a car.

5 train up to Eastchester then a 8 minute bus ride, 6 minute Uber, or a 30 minute walk

I was told to take the Metro North train from Grand Central 4 stops to Pelham. The walk from the stadium is under 1 mile and passes pizza shops, bars, parks, etc...

I hear the new stadium is beautiful and should be worth the effort to get there.
