I would say, that this easily explainable "phenomenon" is caused by ettiquette. Even in NY I bet it is frowned upon to openly spit on the floor of restaurants and bars. I spit all the time, but not on the fucking floor, and probably not onto the ground at Yankee Stadium. So, the need to spit grows, one goes to the bathroom and expectorates. I haven't noticed many spittoons around lately, and this is the least offensive place to "hock one"
you fuckers are WEIRD sometimes.
