From Millstreet to 54th Street, Joanne is touching hearts
That struck a chord with Joanne O’Riordan, the Millstreet phenomenon who, I’m sure you know, spent the last week over here in the Big Apple turning 16, wowing high-ranking officials at the UN and generally being an incredible ambassador for our country.
One of the places where she elicited broad smiles was at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx on Friday night. The Yankees were gracious beyond belief and gave Joanne VIP treatment, showing her (and us, admittedly) the fascinating inner workings of a slick operation which, we would find out during the course of the evening, needs 5,000 employees to make game day as smooth and as entertaining as possible.
