New York Yankees star right fielder Aaron Judge is playing one of the best seasons of his MLB career. Judge is a name that appears in every conversation for the New York Yankees. 30-year-old has made a name for himself even though he started his MLB career in 2016 for the Yankees. Now, there is a special stand in the Yankee Stadium, New York, where his fans have a special celebration when Judge performs.

The ‘All Rise’ celebration began in 2017 when it had been just a year since Aaron Judge made his debut. The All Rise fans are situated in the Judge’s Chambers, a stand named after Aaron Judge. Judge’s Chambers is located in the right field of the Yankee Stadium, New York.

Did Aaron Judge start the ‘All Rise’ celebration?

In 2017, when All Rise fans started emerging from the Judge’s Chambers, fans initially thought that it was Judge himself who started this trend.

“It just showed up one day. I had no part of that. I got a job to do on the field, so I think the behind-the-scenes people took care of that one. The fans like it. It kind of fits, so I just kind of rolled with it,” stated Judge while addressing this situation.

A few days back, Harold Reynolds sat down with 30-year-old Aaron Judge for an interview where they talked about Judge’s baseball journey, his present scenario with the New York Yankees, and the future.

Reynolds asked Judge, ” So you went from a kid to ‘All Rise?’ So when did that come about and when did you first notice it?”

“Some time in 2017, I may have seen a couple people in the Right Field wearing the gowns, and the wigs, and I was like, Oh, that’s pretty cool right there,” replied Judge.

This should be the greatest achievement a sports person can ever get. Players have stands named after them after they retire from the game, but they honored Aaron Judge while playing the game. It did not stop with just a chamber to his name, but Judge now has a separate fanbase who comes to the Yankee Stadium just to see their favorite player hit the ball out of the park.
