All is quiet in Flushing. Â Here’s a look back at the most popular for the week:
PRESALES INFO: Â they added a presale for 2009 Stubhub customers, and here’s the rundown of other known presales. You can also build your own 4-pack but they are pricey. Â What are your thoughts about variable ticket pricing?

MCFADDENS INFO: Yes Virginia, there will be a bar at Citi Field and it has batting cages. Â Drunks + Bats = fun?
I’m surprised how much people are digging my blue Mets jersey.
Non-Mets: check out this video of Target Field.
