Mets Extend Season Ticket Payment Deadline

While y’all obsess over Lackey, Holliday, Halladay and Cliff Lee, look what Ethan sent over.

Monday, December 14, 2009

Dear Mets Season Ticket Holder:

Thank you again for your support of the Mets in 2009. We hope to see you back at Citi Field for the 2010 season.

This is a final reminder that the recent payment due date for Season Ticket renewals has passed. In response to many account holder requests for additional time in making payment, we have extended the deadline for payment to the end of the year.

To retain your seat location, payment is due by Thursday, December 31, 2009. You can submit full payment by MasterCard, Visa, Discover or American Express.

Alternately, you may still select the convenient payment plan option to pay just 20 percent of your total invoice amount (including any credits already applied) by December 31. If choosing this option, your same credit card will automatically be charged half of your remaining balance on January 15, 2010 and the final balance on February 15, 2010.

Click below to access your 2010 Season Ticket invoice.

I had heard previously that the deadline was “soft.”


If the Mets are listening to sports-talk this afternoon they may want to extend it until April 1st.

New Yankee Stadium and Minnesota

Yankee haters will get a kick out of this one….check out New Yankee Stadium and Minnesota for a photo comparison of Fake New Yankee Stadium (the one that already has a ring, sigh) and the new Twins ballpark.
The upper deck at New Fake Yankee is awful. Even my Yankee friend Mr. Sunshine has caved in on that point, and he won’t cave in on anything.
Which reminds me…I bought into that “building codes” caused the plexiglass at Citi…why didn’t the Yankees have the same issues? Hmmm…must investigate more. Anyone out there know anything about building codes?

Mazzilli and Cone Sightings

This caption for this picture called David Cone a “Yankees legend” and Lee Mazzilli a “Mets legend.”  Lee is looking good in a “he was my hero when I was 9” kind of way.

Ryan Thompson and Jeff Kent for the guy on the left…and Ron Darling and Walt Terrell for the guy on the right.

Five Questions For An Average Mets Fan (Fan #58)

Continuing our series 5 Questions for an average Mets fan, here’s Ryan.


1. I started following the Mets in 1985.  I was on the Indians in my little league and my first ever baseball game was Yanks vs Indians.  I rooted for the Indians, because that was my team.  The Mets have been my team ever since.

2.  Favorite memory?
a) The mass of Mets and the staff rushing out to swarm Orosco after strike three of Game 7
b) Ventura’s grand slam single
c) Being at a double-header vs the Pirates in 1996 or 1997.  Robert Person started the second game.  The game went into extras and we had moved down from the Upper Deck to right on the rail on the right field line.  Hundley ended it with a homer right over our heads…it was awesome.
3.Worst memory?
 a) Ball four in 1999 to end the NLCS. b) Being at the last game at Shea and seeing it end that way
4. One off-field thing you’d change?
No more black in the uniforms.  Road grays with blue hats and socks, pinstripes at home with the blue hats.  Classic.
5. If you owned the team?
Bring back Bobby V.  Retire the following numbers: 8, 16, 18, 31
Thanks for doing this….it was cool to think about.

Mets Season Ticket Holder’s Tour Of Citi Field (Part 1)

Thanks to Jimmy the Mets fan for sending these over.  Take it away Jim…

We were treated well and it was interesting to see the
fancy suites that I can’t afford and will never be in again.

The tour guide made a point of thanking us numerous
times for coming and for being season ticket holders.

It was mentioned by our tour guide that the ushers don’t
wear “Phillie Red” jackets.  The color is “Brick”.  It “goes
better” with the green seats and the charcoal steel work.
Maybe it does from an architectural viewpoint, but only
if the architect isn’t a Met fan.  Unfortunately, the brick
jackets will be back in 2010.

There will be one fashion improvement next season.
The parking attendants will be in orange and blue.

Here’s a picture of the staircases painted orange.

















Jimmy frames a shot really well.  Great picture!  Still no Seaver statue.












Mr. Met shows off the hardware from 69 and 86.  We could use another of these.

Jimmy says “here’s the snacks I got for my eight grand.”














This is the “noise” guy.  I want to boo him but he’s just a guy trying to earn a living, right?  Dave Howard could walk in the room and say “hey back off the noise, let’s play some more organ music” so I won’t bust this employee too hard….but I hate your work sir.


More tomorrow when we head to the player’s clubhouse.   Very cool stuff tomorrow!
