A massive banner pushing ex-President Donald Trump’s election lies was unfurled during the New York Yankees-Toronto Blue Jays game on Thursday.
But the sign — which falsely declared that “Trump Won†and urged people to “Save America†— didn’t stay in place for long. Security staff at Yankees Stadium swiftly confiscated the banner and hauled off those responsible.
The incident was caught on camera from multiple angles:
A couple fans at Yankee Stadium just unveiled a massive banner that reads “Trump Won Save Americaâ€
Sounded like the entire crowd was booing until security confiscated the banner, which then resulted in a loud cheer. pic.twitter.com/m56kjgkJ9W

Some in the stadium, where fans were socially distanced, booed and flipped the finger at the banner:
Though Trump’s former hometown has decidedly turned against him, someone hung a “Trump 2020†banner in the stadium in 2018.
In Thursday’s doubleheader, the Blue Jays won the first game 2-0, and the Yankees took the second 5-3.
