On twitter @metspolice I asked anyone if they could think of Mets traditions.  I named the tradition of the team thanking the fans on Closing Day.  Here's some more...the wreath and the Apple (oh yeah, oops) are good ones.  So many of the traditions are no longer around.  SNY should create something called Kiner's Korner even if Ralph doesn't host it.  Maybe there are old tapes somewhere.

I think I like Tim's the best.

   Ur exactly right RT @metspolice: @CMHollon nope I don't think they think 20 or even 1yr ahead. That's why 50yrs in we have zero tradition.8:38 PM Jan 8th from Echofon

Darn, Ralph was about to talk to Lee Mazzilli!

Seriously Dave Howard, why won't you do Banner Day?  It's no more stress than a Mr. Met Dash.
