The most unforgettable moment occurred in two decades ago when Nelson Mandela paid a visit to Yankee Stadium with a Yankee cap on to push forward his movement of eliminate apartheid in South Africa. Except from that we have seen many celebrities including Jay-Z, Justin Bieber choosing Yankee caps as their best choice. And as a big fan for NY it is reasonable for us to go through the whole developing history of New York Yankees Caps.
The classic interlocked NY designed by Louis B Tiffany made its first appearance on a medal rewarded to John McDowell in 1877. Then it was introduced in logo in 1909 and in 1922 the interlocked NY was officially made public as the standard logo for New York
On 21st June 1990, Nelson Mandela accompanied by Mayor David N. Dinkins dropped by Yankee Stadium and delivered a speech to call on the termination of apartheid in South Africa. He declared to the whole world that he is a Yankee. This made history for Yankees and would make any other teams jealous.
If you ask Jay-Z, what are the most import things in his life, I would bet Yankees Cap and music! You could see he wears various styles of NY caps in many occasions and he consider himself as a indispensable part of the NY by writing a special song for New York
Rudy Giuliani, Mayor of New York, was born in Brooklyn stood behind the NY in no fear of public anger with his navy blue cap throughout the whole series.
One of the biggest star in NBA , Bron made public his support for new York Yankees even when his home team Indians going against NY in the playoffs. As he talked in an interview: there is nothing wrong to be a fan! I love Yankees, then I root for them! That’s it! In 2009 Ali showed up in Yankee Stadium to take part in a ceremony and the Yankees team greeted him a cap which he loved all the time.
Nowadays, Justin Bieber joined the bandwagon of Yankee fans. as a big pop star he has brought us several platinum albums and it is normal to see he rocking a Yankees cap in different public situations.
