Came across this cool IG account yesterday. @TheGhostOfQueensPast: "Providing a series of photos of Queens from the 18 & 1900s." Check out their feed for hundreds of throwbacks.
The photographer is unknown, but the image is awesome. If you take out the old ballpark, you'd never know the subjects were headed to a game. Thankfully, style has changed drastically since the 60's and suits, skirts and top hats are now a rarity for baseball fans.
I got married at the ballpark, and unless one of my friends does the same, or I end up owning a minority stake in the team, that's the last time I'll wear a suit to Citi Field.
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.
