So to be fair to the Mets, they do have pennant flags on the poles. As for the pennant logos that used to be on the fence in RF at Shea…here is where they (or lookalikes) have landed.
The iphone is a wonderful device, but the camera lacks any sort of zoom so these aren’t the best pictures.
This picture makes the placement look a lot cooler than it is. There’s really not any reason to use the bullpen gate – you likely parked on the other side of the stadium, or took the 7.
The bullpen gate is also where they have hidden the original much cooler apple.

I think this gives you a better feel for how invisible these are. You wouldn’t notice them if you cross the bridge. I am leaning over a railway on a staircase to take this shot.
“NLDS Champion” is a lame thing to brag about. Just say division champions.
I think the wilpons in their infinite wisdom(maybe thinking of the future of the iron triangle) are hoping that when the area is all “revitalized” thats where fans will come in from..you know from the shopping and theme restaurants.
while media goon’s point may be valid (and wrong – what about the rotunda), I think the Wilpons are living in la-la land. I did notice that the banners on the Mets auction site were the older style (no black in it), and not these actual ones. I love that the Mets have done this with no fanfare or press release at all, like we’re supposed to notice it by accident, or not at all.
