We’re up to average fan #70…here’s Mike.
When did you become a fan?
1968 because of an older brother who was devout Mets’ fan
Favorite memory?
A) 1987 Opening Day…sitting in the upper deck, first row; watching the ring ceremony on the field and on the video board, and when Keith gothis ring, he looks at it, looks straight ahead, leans his head slightly to the left (of course), forms the “okay†sign with his right hand, and smiles.
B) 1986 at a bar in Uniondale, watching game six; everybody saying “it’s over;†I’m telling them “No, it isn’t…I feel it.†I look up, and say “If you give me this one, I won’t ask for another,†then the ball “gets behind Buckner.â€
Worst memory?
Game 7 of 1988 NLCS; sorry Darling
One off-field thing you would change?
Ownership, and I’d have kept Shea
If you became the owner, what’s the first thing you would change.
The name on the stadium
