Mets Police Mom made it two in a row at “Shea” once again donning her Stars and Stripes jersey.
She isn’t being a knucklehead like me. She just keeps referring to how much netter it is than “the old Shea.”
Last night she correctly observed that the planes are far less annoying.
We had Shake Shack (which got the MP Mom blessing) and browsed the stores on the hunt for a jersey.
Yep, jersey buying must be a genetic condition. She saw someone with a Shamrock Jersey – the Mets script filled with shamrocks.
So we walked around on a hunt.
I really like the ’47 shop on the main level toward right field. I just like the style of their merchandise. As you can imagine I took a bunch of photos of caps and shirts that I will post as soon as I get done arguing with Day Job Lawyers over what words mean.
In the ’47 shop I found the red white and blue NY Giants cap that many of us like. $18. Done.
Then we made our way to the main level store near home. There you will find a Murphy merchandise sale. This might be a good opportunity for you to grab a retro for $65. There are also tees and the green Murphy players choice jersey (snagged one).
As I walked around the park I realized I am a crazy person. Every time I go to a game I snap off 200 pictures, many of them of people’s backs. That’s weird.
During the game I met up with some fellow tweeters and Mets Police readers, but they too had photos of odd jerseys in their phones. Maybe I am not so weird.
Then I get home and realize I had better hide my jersey purchase before Mrs. Mets Police noticed it. She also hasn’t noticed the one I bought on Sunday and didn’t bust my chops about the burnt orange one I wore when I walked in.
How pathetic is it that I am hiding Mets jerseys under the bed until I can sneak them into the closet. I need to stop.
I have to go fight with lawyers now, but I have lots of stuff to catch up on over the weekend. Pics, articles, Hernandez stuff, Seaver stuff, catching up on comments, ticket fees, this whole Medgal for GM thing…
Im not done posting for the day but gotta run for now.
Ill assume Mrs. Mets Police isnt an avid rrader of your site, since you are brazenly talking about your jersey purchases.
Mrs Mets Police breaks computers. She is a super villain. She’ll never figure out what I’m up to.
Between my hiding stuff (jerseys) under the bed and being on the computer all day she probably thinks I’m into porn.
I have to say that I was at the game on Thursday also, in the outfield, with my dad, and he had the same observation about the airplanes. He also went shopping in the team stores for a new hat. Sadly, I could not stop him from buying an all black Mets hat. I also started going around looking for an interesting jersey to buy, but didn’t get too far in that search (I had a nice snow white Reyes jersey with an all blue Mets cap in case you saw me wandering the park before the game). I would have come around for a meetup before the game somewhere inside the park.
