Mets Starting 5 tickets Promotion: 2 horrible seats to a weekday game for $11.50! #RRQBT

The Mets were very excited to email me about their Starting Five promotion!

$5 PROMENADE OUTFIELD TICKETS NOW THRU MARCH 5 AT 11:59 P.M.

Celebrate the Mets starting rotation with a limited time $5 Promenade Outfield ticket offer for all Monday-Thursday home games (excluding April 4, July 2 & 3) now through Tuesday, March 5 at 11:59 p.m.

Tickets available for all Monday-Thursday home games excluding April 4, July 2 & 3. Tickets must be purchased online only; offer not available by phone or at the Citi Field Ticket Windows. Tickets are subject to availability with a limit of fourteen (14) tickets per transaction and per ticket fees apply. While supplies last.

That’s nice.  I guess I like the deal.  Some caveats..

I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to get one ticket into my cart…but for two my total price was $11.50 because FEES ARE BACK BABY!   Yes, the Mets have brought back their popular fees program.  So this really appears to be the Mets Starting FIVE SEVENTY FIVE or maybe even the STARTING SIX FIFTY.  Anyway, not too bad..

A reminder of WHERE these seats are.  Prom Left are the worst seats in the major leagues.  RF less hideous.

 

Oh you don’t believe me about LF?  That’s because nobody has sat there since 2009 when we were all horrified to learn about David Howard’s Geometry.

I mean if you don’t care about seeing the LF its good deal.  (These seats SUCK)

And remember the Mets Police completely disapprove for you of buying $5 seats and then just hanging out on the bridge with the t-shirt weirdos that like to watch games from 550 feet away… or even helping yourself to a seat a little closer to home.  Do not do that.  Assigned seats only.

Anyway this promotion is better than a kick in the eye, so LGM.  Oh wait they want to trademark that.  Um….Rah Rah Queens Baseball Team.  #RRQBT.
