This dude has a BLACK #16 Cone jersey. Where do we begin.
A visit to the awesome Mets By The Numbers Website helps me remember when Cone wore 16 at all. I remembered 44 and the bad decision to switch to #17 (because why would they retire that?).
Give up? He wore it when he was a Met for a Month at the end of his career in 2003. After being a Yankee etc. Scarily I also saw a Cone 16 t-shirt in the mens room. Really.
Finally, I leave you with some hope. Look at this fan. A blue hat with a pinstriped Mazzilli jersey. It was #13, where as Mets Police know that Lee’s true number was #16 which was being used by a cocaine addict in 1986 when Lee returned. However, any Mazzilli jersey is cool. Look at his friend next to him with the dopey black and orange wright jersey. I guess Wright was a 1984 Oriole.
Mets Police posting pics of bad jerseys at Shea! nice job.
ok – this one I saw yesterday and started yelling – wife told me to shut up.
Mitchell and Ness 1969 Mets jersey #20 – could be a tough one because they reaaly only make Seaver and Ryan now. Who is it?? Tommie Agee. I have no problem with them making an Agee – the problem i haveis with the guy who stitched plain blue letters on the back spilling AGEE.
Dude, the jersey didn’t come with a name on back, the team didn’t wear names on back in 1969. WHY WHY WHY????
Let people come up to you and ask whose jersey yhou are wearing. EDUCATE. Don’t desecrate the jersey please.
Ah, but someone in the upper deck in left field was wearing a white pinstriped jersey with NO BLACK and #8 for Todd Hundley. Now that was a classy jersey!
oops that should have been #9, not #8
