The Mets Police

I personally like Curly Shuffle because I’m from the 80s but I think we should all unite behind Meet the Mets lest we split the vote.

Therefore I officially endorse “Meet the Mets” which sounded great during the 8th yesterday.

All other choices would be idiotic.

Don’t forget, this will become a tradition….so let’s not mess this one up.  Other bloggers, do the right thing.

FLUSHING, N.Y., June 26, 2009 – The New York Mets today announced the launch of an online fan vote to pick the Mets Eighth Inning “Sing-A-Long” Song at Citi Field. Voting begins now on Mets.com.
WFAN’s Boomer Esiason and Craig Carton assisted the Mets in compiling a list of songs by submitting their own selections.
Fans can log on to Mets.com to vote for one of the following:
Eighth Inning “Sing-A-Long” Song Nominees

• “Curly Shuffle”
• “Hooked on a Feeling”
• “I Like it Like That”
• “Mama Said Knock You Out”
• “Meet the Mets”
• “This Land is Your Land”
• “Twist & Shout”

I might just be dense, but I don’t see anywhere to actyally vote.

Nothing exciting. Seems like pitching is the key to the series. Who knew?

Sold my tickets for tomorrow.   Took 2 hours to get home yesterday and I’d rather have the extra $150 which pays for about 5 other games.   There’s a 60 inch TV and some cold “free” beer waiting for me (and fireworks in town tomorrow night – kids and all) so don’t call me names.

Good article in USA Today about Citi Field being the anti-Yankee Stadium when it comes to home runs.  

1.7 HRs a game at Citi as opposed to 2.2 at Shea.

I spent Thursday afternoon at the ballpark with Mets police Junior….took 100 or so shots, I was surprised the actual Mets police didn’t stop me from taking so many photos in the team store, but in the upcoming days I will give you a break from the Wrigley stuff (still have tons to cover there) – so starting next week we’ll check out the team store, then some of the menu items.   Rather than start that series on a Friday, here’s some random shots from Thursday afternoon.

A packed house for a Thursday afternoon!   Blue sky too! Remember those?

I need an engineer to explain to me the difference between Citi concrete and Shea concrete.  It felt like 100 degrees around 12:30 today, and it wasn’t that hot.  The actual Promenade underneath was a good 25 degrees cooler.   Wait until it is actually hot.

By the way, who is buying the “lemonade?”  Looks like a cup of water with a lemon floating.

If you want to get me something for my birthday, I wouldn’t mind this Mets themed “Hawaiian” shirt.

Take a close look at that hat….

….I don’t know if you can make it out – see the guy with the shirt I like – he was wearing a “Mets” hat with a white NY.  Sure looked Dodgery.  Don’t show Fred Wilpon that one.

Excuse me sir, you bought a black hat with a black NY.   You realize we can’t see the NY right?

Good job out of Junior.   I told him I’d buy him a shirt.   He picked a blue and orange one with an Irish guy on the back.   Son, some day, this blog will be all yours.

$22 at the Team Store.
