Citi Park!!!!! *****

Thursday night I went to Citi Park to watch the Mets play the Phillies.  What a beautiful stadium.  Reminds me a lot of Safeco, same feel; very open and fan friendly. And even in New York, I ran into old friends, Like Mr. Met.

And ran into even older friends, like Casey Stengel, the ol' Professor

Cousin Jennifer and I found time to have a slice, and I could even get an IPA!!!  But just as we were eating, and just ten minutes before game time.....Thunderstorms!  and no roof!

But soon, after about two hours of beer drinking and buying beers for service men, it's Fleet Week in NY, the sky cleared and Cousin Jennifer gave the night the two thumbs up it deserved.

But the Phillies lost, and around 11:30 and the Mets up 1-0, I caught Jamie's eye in the dugout, asked in pantomime if he was on the pinch hitting list, discovered he was not in the plans and we left.
