The Mets Police: Shopping At The New York Mets Team Store (Part 1)

Shopping At The New York Mets Team Store (Part 1)

Welcome to this week's series. We're going to tour the Mets Team Store at Citi Field and see what we find.

First we enter through the rotunda...

I had not previously noticed the non-baseball Jackie Robinson things. Again nothing wrong with it, just some Mets stuff somewhere in the stadium would be nice.

Here is a $20 poster that I saw as soon as I walked in. Kinda cool...

And right up front I saw this....um...hey....I seem to have magically transported to Chavez Ravine! What happened?

Oh I get it, Jackie Robinson...ok I will calm down.....

...Hey, what's this doing there?

We're just getting started. More tomorrow.

That photo of Jackie Robinson is at -- you guessed it! -- LA Coliseum, the LA Dodgers' first stadium when they moved west! Since Jackie was an LA native.

It's not the only Los Angeles picture in the rotunda, either -- there's another one of him at UCLA.

We still have his wife coming to Dodger games. You know how thrilled Dodgers fans are at having our team's history plastered all over a DisneyEbbetts Stadium?

Not.

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!
