Mets, stop with this. You sound like a crazy person.
I was reading this morning’s press release about the new ribbons, and then I saw this.
An iconic landmark and historic symbol of New York City, Citi Field will welcome fans to experience one of America’s favorite pastimes like never before through Samsung innovations. The multi-year technology upgrade is scheduled to begin in 2022.
OK I know I am negative and all but let’s break that apart…let’s start with the easy part: HISTORIC
What is historic about Citi Field? I could make the argument about Shea Stadium based more on The Beatles than the Mets. But Citi Field? Why? Because we got t-shirts once when we destroyed Santana’s career? the 2015 World Series? What is HISTORIC about Citi Field.
Put it another way, can you tell the HISTORY OF NYC without mentioning Citi Field? Pretty sure you can. There’s this other baseball stadium in the Bronx that was torn down, you probably would have to mention that one.
Now let’s talk ICONIC. Hey person from not-NYC, name some things in New York…..
Let’s see….The Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Broadway…..
And do any BASEBALL STADIUMS come to mind? Well, if one does it won’t Citi Field I guarantee that.
So Mets, I appreciate the try but you sound CRAZY. Take that out of the boiler plate.
