The Mets will open Citi Field against the Red Sox April 3 and 4. That’s fun….and the Mets will get some extra money out of us, and it makes it less hideous that the home opener is a Monday night (awful Mets, awful awful awful).
So we can look forward to……oh wait….as always the Mets don’t get it right. Guess who else opens a stadium on….yes you guessed it, April 3 & 4. That’s right, the Yankees will play the Cubs those same days.
Why show off your new stadium when you can be swallowed by all the attention on the New New Yankee Stadium.
I think the Mets may actually have the better ballpark this time, but Yankee will get the attention just off the name.
Hopefully one of the teams will blink, or at least the teams hopefully won’t both play at the same time. I’m sure there are lots of us who’d like to go to both.
If you’re here you are a Mets fan….anyone out there tempted to be at the opening of Yankee and wait on Citi Field until day two?
