NY Mets – While on other side of MLB in Gotham City they tore down the cathedral in The Bronx to build a larger, poorer, version of Yankee Stadium, over here in Queens they’ve upgraded the way George and Weezie once did in Manhattan. It’s just a great, thoughtful, user-friendly ballpark. From the upper deck to the outfield bleachers, from the club seats to the Ebbets Field overtures and Jackie Robinson inspiration, this place has something for anyone who loves baseball. It’s a cozy place to sit and watch a game, easy to get to from the train if you’re staying in Manhattan. And if you need a hubcap or some spare parts for your old Datsun, you can pick one up across the street. It made me wanna invest in a blue Oscar Madison Mets lid and jump on the “I Hate the Yankees train.” Highly recommend this place.
