The Mets Police: New York Mets Donate Tickets To Wounded Vets

New York Mets Donate Tickets To Wounded Vets

I spend enough time giving the Mets grief...so I am thrilled to write about them doing something nice.

Smith and roughly 50 fellow amputees were at Citi Field on Friday, taking in the Yankees' 9-1 Subway Series win over the Mets before Sunday's five-mile Hope & Possibility Race through Central Park. Hearing that the veterans were in town, the Mets donated 50 tickets to the group down the right-field line. And Rob Diamond, who has run a fund-raising Web site for the Freedom Team, provided concessions for those in attendance.

If You're Visiting For The First Time

If you are visiting The Mets Police for the first time, welcome.

This blog aims to be a little different. We're less likely to complain about a pitching change than we are likely to complain about what the pitcher was wearing.

We're about Mets history and tradition. We'd like to see a Seaver statue at Citi Field. We'd like the black uniforms to go away. We'd like the team to always treat the fans with respect.

We're just regular old Mets fans like you who have migrated from the uppers to the Promenade where we were saddened when we found plexiglass. Finally, for all our complaining we just want the franchise to win the World Series (while nicely dressed).

The site is updated several times a day, usually morning, noon, and night (cliche but true) with other items as they come in.

Mets Police in no way claims to be news nor accurate, including anything to which we link. It's just a blog. Read the blog and/or take our advice at your own risk.

We strongly encourage everyone to support the New York Mets and their business partners, just don't wear a black jersey while doing so.

Welcome!
