In the continued overreaction to whatever security concerns ballpark managers have, Yankee Stadium has now barred fans from bringing the new Apple iPad into the ballpark, according to CenterNetworks.com.

“If you are planning to attend a Yankees home game at Yankee Stadium, leave that iPad at home!” the story states. “The security policies page notes that laptops are not allowed inside Yankee Stadium along with any video equipment. Apparently Yankees Stadium officials have decided that the iPad poses a safety risk. Additional banned devices are those that, '...may interfere with and/or distract any sports participant, other patron, audio or audio/visual telecast or recording of the game or any technology-related service provided in Yankee Stadium.'"

The price of improved technology.
