The Mets are giving away Blue Caps tonight. I will be there using Shannon’s tickets tonight. Who else is going? Anyone want to meet up? Maybe start building up the Blue Cap Army tonight?

Opening Day 1962 at the Polo Grounds

Mike sent this over: opening day 1962 mets first game at polo grounds…only 12000 attended..it was a cold rainy day..


And from the Mets archives from April 1962, this entry from my grandfather:

12,000?  We complained for 5 years that we didn’t have a team and only 12,000 of you show up?

I don’t like the Dodger Blue in the uniforms.  Everyone knows that the NY looks better on a black cap.  What goes better with orange than black?  Get the blue out of here.  It’s good to be back home at the Polo Grounds with the NY logo on the field.  I hope the stadium in Queens gets delayed for at least a year.

Reyes uses catchy phrase

Jose Reyes: “We need to play better at home if we want to get to the next level.”


I wonder if he’d like one of these snazzy t-shirts

I’ll have a nice easy way for you to buy one next week, and Goon is supposed to find a photo of an attractive person wearing one. In the meantime if you want one just email [email protected]

I don’t even know what the cost is but all proceeds go to the Donuts Fund.
…

Usually this is Saturday Morning Donuts but today it’s Why Did I Stay Out All Night With Clients? I guess I should move.

I actually had dreams about blogging. That’s crazy.

@mediagoon is using my tickets tonight. It sucks to mss Blue Cap Night. I hope Goon has the blogpress app on his phone so he can post crowd shots.

I have one more day away from Flushing and then back to normal operations tomorrow.
