President Trump’s lawyer and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was loudly booed at Yankee Stadium’s Memorial Day game on Monday, his 74th birthday.
After the Yankees’ PA announcer said the former GOP presidential candidate was in the stands and wished him a happy birthday, the crowd erupted into boos.
Members of the media quickly took to Twitter to point out the event.
At Yankee stadium: “The Yankees wish a happy birthday to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani.”
Thunderous boos rained across the stadium.

Giuliani joined Trump’s legal team last month, tasked with dealing with special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
Since going to the White House, Giuliani has made a strong effort to discredit the Mueller probe, while still maintaining that Trump would welcome a sit-down interview with the special counsel.
On Sunday, Giuliani claimed the entire “basis” of the investigation into Russia’s election meddling was “illegitimate.”
