So it appears there is no 2016 Banner Day

I was looking at the Mets Promotional Schedule and I don’t see Banner Day.  I don’t think Banner Day was announced.  I think had it been announced someone would have told me, or I would seen it on twitter or something.

It’s April 23rd, Banner Day Reborn has been in May and June, so if an announcement were coming it probably would have happened by now.

So let’s assume Banner Day is once again…lets use the term…. dormant.

It’s OK.

For those of us…first 200, then 90, then 75…who participated, it was the greatest thing ever.  What a thrill.

However, the rest of you just aren’t interested.  And I can’t bury the Mets for not throwing an event for the 62 of us that would show up for Banner Day 2016.

So Mets, thank you for giving it a chance.  You have it a good chance.  Thank you for giving me an opportunity to share the experience with my family, and hopefully down the road there will be a time or reason to have Banner Day again.

I kinda loved this.
