Personally I think the Subway Series brings out the worst in both fanbases and you are crazy to buy standing room. And I don’t think Citi holds a crowd well.
But I’m a curmudgeon so feel free to stand 15 rows deep 500 feet from home with your pals.
On the other hand it’s nice to see a Saturday day game for once. I thought those don’t draw?
