Hi... good job on your site. Keep up the good work.
Citi-field is a very nice ball park. I've been there twice already and will be there 3 more times before the end of May. If you cant see the entire field of play, I don't think its the end of the world. The most important thing is being able to see the infield along with the pitcher and the batter. Unfortunately this is not the case up in the promenade. I had to send this video in to you guys from the game on April 17. My seat was in section 527, row 3 seat 3.
It seems that every section in the promenade along the left and right field lines has obstructed views from the plexi-glass and handrails (not to mention all the people going up and down the stairs). The obstruction is about from seat 1 through 6 in rows 1 through 4. That's (6x4)= 24 seats in every section along the lines in the promenade. The Mets didn't do a good job on this. This was annoying. I rather stand all 9 innings than sit here. I noticed that behind home plate, there are several tunnel entrances to the promenade just like Shea had. The whole promenade should have been designed this way. I've been to approximately 200 games at Shea stadium the past 22 years and sat just about all over the place. Shea never had crappy seats like this. Sorry. Check out this video I have posted on YouTube.

I of course stand by the official position of the Mets and that there are no obstructed views.
The way we characterize “obstructed” is if you have an obstruction, something in front of you — a beam, a pillar, something that’s blocking your view. That’s not the case here. It is a function of the geometry of the building.
