I don’t recall ever seeing this one myself….I dig the Worlds Fair logo.

Shake Shack Video
Here’s a rather generic Shake Shack story but how about that Hernandez jersey :26 seconds in? Â And when did they film this, 7 in the morning? Â There’s like five people on line on a “day when the digits hit triple digits.”
Brian owns these Mets jerseys: Derek Bell
Third in a 5 part series. Â I believe there was one Derek Bell jersey ever sold, and Brian is going to tell us about it:
Bell
I kind of love this one just because of the lore of D. Bell.
I ran out and got this blank black Mets alternate customized in the summer of 2000 after Bell all but put the Mets on his back in May and June of their National League Championship season. The 15 year old version of me loved everything about Bell: his ridiculously baggy uniform, walking up to the plate to Jay Z’s “Big Pimpin'”. Despite the fact that Bell only played for the Mets for a season, this might be one of my favorites.
The only thing that gets to me about this one is that I purchased this in 1998, so this is the original version of the Mets black alternate (notice the blue skyline patch. It was like that for a year on the black unis). Bell technically didn’t wear this version of the black, so I wish I would have gone Piazza on this one. But it’s a quirky piece in my collection.
That blue logo makes it slightly less hideous than the black skyline patch.
