While there's no novelty anymore, that doesn't mean that Citi Field isn't a draw relative to Shea.
I like to go to games with my young kids. As someone who sometimes has to change diapers at a ballgame, Citi Field not only wins hands down over Shea, but over the new Yankee Stadium. (Citi has far more prevalent "family" restrooms.) For my older son, who's freshly out of diapers and needs to make frequent bathroom trips, I can usually get from our seats to the bathroom and back without missing more than a pitch or two, which never could have happened at Shea.
When the novelty is gone for all the fans, we're left with a much nicer ballpark than we had previously. After sampling the new Yankee Stadium, I also find Citi to be a better experience for those fans who don't want to shell out for the high end seats, which is most of us.

The novelty has worn off. I've been there 6 times this year. I think the novelty wore off after my 3rd visit because I had been around the park a few times and have seen everything it has to offer. Great place to watch a game but I won't be back this year, unless the Mets start playing better.

I allow anonymous posts because I know it's annoying to log-in, but sign your name or nickname so we can give you credit.
- Sure seems like it's worn off, and a lot has to do with the team, and this nightmare of a season.
- I never cared about the new stadium because I knew the team would disappoint. I am boycotting the Mets until the Wilpons sell. Hopefully it will be 1979 so fast they won't know what hit them.
And from a different post but a similar sentiment:

I'm numb to losing. I think I have been for a while. I'm getting through this with lots of episodes of Family Guy on TV, Sitcoms on CBS, and extra sleep.
I'm also NOT going to try to get rid of any tickets (extra tickets, yes, but mine, no). But I only got in for a 4 game commitment and picked up 4 other games (and I'll honor those tickets).
