Attendees will enjoy a dinner buffet in the Good Humor Fan Fest, snacks, and breakfast in the morning. Fans will also have the opportunity to meet Mr. and Mrs. Met.

Gates for the Citi Field Sleepover will open at 5:00 p.m. The Mets-Padres PIX 11 telecast will begin on Citi Vision at 8:40 p.m. Fans with sleeping bags can sleep on the grass; those with tents on the warning track.
All fans attending the Citi Field Sleepover will receive a ticket to the Mets’ Sunday, September 28 game against the Houston Astros.
Last year more than 300 fans attended the first ever Citi Field Sleepover on August 10.
I know the $200 price includes food & a ticket to a game in September, but maybe next time the Mets could consider a cheaper option for families who might appreciate the experience without the extra frills.
metspolice $700 for a family of 4 to sleep on the ground sounds like such a great experience.
metspolice the lengths #WIlpons go for $$$ is amazing #shameless #fraud #SelltheTeam
