The Mets Police: New Scoreboard And More New York Mets Stuff Coming To Citi Field

New Scoreboard And More New York Mets Stuff Coming To Citi Field

Shannon Shark, Mets Police Chief

(Dave Howard) We've heard our fans," he said.

So, he said, the Mets received permission from Major League Baseball to show the live feed on video screens the instant the ball is in play, allowing fans to follow action they might not see live. Also, an additional video board will be installed in the rightfield corner after the All-Star break.

Howard added that more Mets memories will be reflected with displays in the park this summer, and that there are bigger long-term plans to give the place a Mets atmosphere.

That's good news. I'm here to help if y'all need me, and I suspect you actually do.

I'll keep an eye out for any Mets personnel at the Shea memorabilia auction on Saturday.

But it's good that Dave Howard was able to see around the obstruction to see the problem.

I'm not sure how that additional video board will help. especially from the picture of section 107 that I see on the right side of your page.

you should come out to the auction too. i'd love to have opinions other than my own from how well things are selling.

but i plan to have a big write up on Saturday. I would like to see if the video screen makes a difference and if fans take to the new Mets stuff in the ballpark.

If You're Visiting For The First Time

If you are visiting The Mets Police for the first time, welcome. This blog aims to be a little different. We're less likely to complain about a pitching change than we are likely to complain about what the pitcher was wearing. We're about Mets history and tradition. We'd like to see a Seaver statue at Citi Field. We'd like the black uniforms to go away. We'd like the team to always treat the fans with respect. We're just regular old Mets fans like you who have migrated from the uppers to the Promenade where we were saddened when we found plexiglass. Finally, for all our complaining we just want the franchise to win the World Series (while nicely dressed).

We're in the middle of a series called "5 Questions for Average Mets Fans." Depending on when you visit the site it may or may not be the top article. Scroll down and you'll see some of the other types of articles we do....ticket plans, new uniforms, memories, anything Mazzilli or Seaver.

The site is updated several times a day, usually morning, noon, and night (cliche but true) with other items as they come in. Welcome!
