Tailgate with The 7 Line Army on May 5th!

Tailgate with The 7 Line Army on May 5th!

by Darren Meenan April 30, 2018

Get to the ballpark on Saturday 5/5 to hang before heading in to the game vs the Rockies! The Mets are off to a hot start, and we're looking forward to some nice weather on Cinco de Mayo.

If you're new to the group you're highly encouraged to hit the tailgate party. DIVE RIGHT IN. Introduce yourself and get the camaraderie started before we even get to the seats.

We'll be set up at our normal spot just past the train station boardwalk. The MTA "Southfield Lot" is located on Roosevelt Avenue just next to the steps to the 7 train. Great location and a super convenient walk to the Rotunda gate. Check the below map if you're not in the know.

If you don't feel like lugging your own supplies, we have a chef in the crew! Kass puts out a serious spread, and the suggested donation is just $10. Chip in if you wanna get down. He somehow tops himself each outing, and he's a hefty menu on deck for our third tailgate party of the season. 


TIP: SHOW UP EARLY TO GRAB A SPOT. THE GATES USUALLY OPEN AROUND 4PM, BUT PROBABLY EARLIER THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE OF THE CESPEDES GARDEN GNOME GIVEAWAY.

ANOTHER TIP: SIGN UP FOR CLEAR and use the code 7LINEARMY. THAT'S THE FASTEST WAY IN TO THE BALLPARK.


Our season ticket members will be rocking their 2018 jerseys. If you're joining us just for the day, you'll be able to snag your shirsey once you get in to the ballpark. If you're interested, we do have some of the replica jerseys left. They'll be at our kiosk in S-2XL while supplies last.

Even if you're not sitting with us, you're welcome to come by. More the merrier, so tell your friends. You're encouraged to bring your own grills, drinks, snacks... but make sure you CLEAN UP after yourselves. Nobody likes a mooch, so please don't go rummaging through coolers that don't belong to you. If you're feeling generous and you'd like to share, that's totally your call. Come prepared. 

Even if you're shy, try to say hi. We're all friendly. 

The game is at 7:10pm, so prepare to head in around 6:30 so we're settled in our seats in time for the National Anthem. 

LGM!
