York Mets

Do you think the New york Mets should get in a bench clearing brawl, to bring the team together?

It seems teams get on a little winning streak, after brawls or fights occur. It gets people fired up and a jolt. When was the last time the Mets got in a brawl, that is why they stink.

yes. Their games are sooo boring, that would be the only form of entertainment worth watching. Its like going to a Nascar race and not being able to see a deadly crash 50 car pileup with fire and debris and bodies flying everywhere!

New York Mets Tickets And A Day At Citi Field

Established in 1962, the New York Mets is one of the most recognized names in baseball. Members of the National League since their formation and the National League East since 1969, blue, orange, white and black colors of the team are almost as famous as the team itself. Affectionately known by nicknames such as The Amazin' Mets, The Amazins and The Metropolitans, the Mets have won 2 World Series titles, 4 National League Pennants, 5 East Division titles and 2 Wild card berths. Since their start, retired numbers include 14, 37, 41 and 42. Meet the Mets, the team's signature song, was written in 1961; a year before the team was officially established.

The brief but colorful history behind the color choices for the Mets' uniforms comes from the Brooklyn Dodgers whose colors were blue and white and the New York Giants whose colors were orange and black. Blue and orange are the flag colors for New York City as well. In 1957 both the New York Giants and the Brooklyn Dodgers pulled up stakes out of New York and headed to the east coast in California. New York did not have a baseball franchise in the National League at the time and thus the New York Mets were formed to fill the gap.

Just a few years into the major leagues, the Mets won their first World Series in 1969. Although the Mets have been in more World Series than any other expansion team, they have only added one other World Series win to their credit, which was in 1986. Up until 1999, the Mets also held the record for baseball attendance. In 1970, they garnered approximately 2.7 million fans to one game. For 29 years, the Mets held the attendance record until the Yankees broke the record themselves in 1999.

Although the Mets hold one of the worse records in major league history with a 40-120 for their 1962 playing, they have to their credit Hall of Famers like Tom Seaver, whom they acquired in a lottery. Most associate Seaver for his instrumental role in helping the Mets to win the World Series in 1969 against the Baltimore Orioles. Although it has been an off/on relationship with winning, there is no question that the Mets are a top notch team who can take it to the top of their game.

All home games for the Mets are currently held at Citi Field. Located at the corner of 126th Street and Roosevelt in Flushing, New York, Citi Field was first opened in 2009 with a college game that was held on March 29 of that year. Owned and operated by Mets, the playing surface is grass and the construction cost was $900 million to complete this ballpark that has a capacity for 42,000 fans. The design of Citi Field reflects New York itself at every turn with its Shea Bridge and Jackie Robinson Rotunda.

A wealth of eateries, excellent sites, FanFest area, museum, batting cage, dunk tank and New York Mets Hall of Fame plaques are all a part of the enjoyable experience one can have during at day at Citi Field to take in a Mets game.
