Citi Field needs to embrace the trough

Eyes up.

The other day I waited on a very long line to use the bathroom.  One of my completely unreasonable complaints about the Guest Experience at Citi Field as managed by Chris Brown who still hasn’t contacted me is not just that I want to be able to see from my seat…

…I’d also like to be able to go to the bathroom.

My son and I got up and the line was crazy so we went back to our awesome view above.

After another inning or so my kid had to go so we waited on line.  Our bathroom trip was like 20 minutes, after all the game was sold out, and when we finally entered the men’s room I was surprised to find the rather large room had only six maybe seven urinals.

Then it hit me…..Citi Field needs to embrace the trough.

Wrigley Field Bathroom

That’s Wrigley Field. Yes it can get cozy. And I’ve been in a men’s room where the trough is in the middle and you get to make eye contact with the fan across from you.

That being said, get over yourself. Nobody wants to see your schween. We all want to empty our bladders and go back to sitting behind a railing watching the game.

Look how many more of us could do our business if we had this revolutionary retro trough design,

I’m serious about this.   I don’t want to miss two innings – sorry I forgot how slow baseball has become – two batters because it took me 20 minutes to pee.

Embrace the Trough Mets.
