A lot of people rollerblade on the streets and
sidewalks of New York. Wollman Rink has a rink for rollerblading in the summer.
It is a great place to go if you're a beginner, doing tricks, or
just rollerblading around for fun. Rollerblading is really fun, but also dangerous,
so you have to be careful and wear a helmet, wrist guards, elbow guards, and
knee guards.

Baseball is popular
in inner cities because it's not
expensive to play. All you need are
bats, some balls, and some gloves. It's pretty
easy to learn. It can be played by kids and adults.
It is fun, too. The crowds like to cheer on the players, and it develops a loud team
spirit. You should buy tickets to see it. Baseball is shown a lot more on T.V. than any other sport.Yankee and Shea stadiums
are two famous stadiums in New York. Yankee Stadium
is in the Bronx and Shea Stadium is in Queens.
The NY Mets play at Shea stadium
and the Yankees play at
Yankee stadium.
