MPOTD: Shea Stadium Home Plate

MPOTD: Shea Stadium Home Plate

Back in 2011 I'd post a different photo of the day. No real rhyme or reason besides having to do with the Mets. Not really reinventing the wheel on this one, but I'll start picking one a day to post that I think you guys might like. Mets Photo Of The Day, MPOTD for short.

First up is this pic from a girl names Marisa. Not stalking her out, but from looks of her feed, she's at the ballpark this weekend for The Meadows Music & Arts Festival

I hoped the team would have left a wall up from Shea. Border it off and make it a destination spot for fans and tourists. Alas, that didn't happen, but they did map out the base path and added plaques. Pretty cool alternate. Now you can hang for a photo, play wiffle ball where the legends stood or just reminisce about all the good times.

Unfortunately a lot of fans walk past and don't bat an eye. Not even realizing they're walking over sacred ground. If you've never been to the park, take a few extra minutes to go pay your respects. 

Anyway, shout to Marisa. Have fun.
