MPOTD: Baby's First Mets Game

by Darren Meenan November 30, 2017

This is exactly what I was going for when the "Down Since" onesies came out a couple years ago. I hit a ton of games as a kid (down since 1980), but have only one photo that I know of at a game. Times were obviously quite different in the early 80's, and I'm not even sure my parents owned a decent camera. Once the disposables became popular, we were more into those for capturing moments on vacations and whatnot, but I guess never at a game. 

Baby Jack here did it big. Taking in his first game from a suite at Nationals Park on April 28th. The Mets won 7-5, and mommy @KareyNobles posted this cute photo of the fam. 

We did the same when it was time for our daughter's first trip to Citi Field. Bringing a newborn to a game is no easy task, and when the opportunity arose to watch a game from a suite, we were in. Let's be honest, when you bring a baby to a game, you can't really watch the whole game, and from a suite it's just way easier. Diapers, feeding, naps, stroller walks around the field level..... maybbbeee you see a collective 2 innings. At least you got that photo though!

We do have a few of the Down Since 2017 onesies left while supplies last. Yes, a 2018 version will be available in the new year.
