"When the fans make that trip, spend that money, buy those tickets, you want to reciprocate it by showing them a good game and hopefully getting a ‘W’," Mets third baseman David Wright said recently. "It’s a very cool gesture on their part to travel that way and spend that hard-earned money to support us." "Win or lose we get emails after every outing from a family who says, ‘It’s my only game of the season, I brought my kid and we had the greatest time, thank you, we can’t wait until the next one,’ " Meenan said. "It’s really about the community and the friendships and the camaraderie and everything that is going on in the section. That’s something that people take away from the games if they win or lose."If the paper isn't available in your area or the internet is more your speed... you can also read it online HERE.
We'll be spending Opening Weekend in Houston! Hopefully you'll be one of the 1,300 Mets fans kicking the season off with us in Texas! The Astros didn't have enough availability to fit us for Opening Day, so we locked up 1,300 tickets to game 2 of the season on March 29th.
