Okay. I don't get the reference, so I must have missed that, but no worries. It's all good to me.
For anyone who's planning on taking the 7 train to this match: It's not running from Manhattan
Welcome to the hell I had to deal with for most of my life known as the 7 train

Has anyone checked the map today to get an idea of how ticket sales are going? I can't see it on my phone.
Have you folks on the Mets mailing list gotten any push on this? I wonder how aggressively, if at all, they are able to reach out to the Mets base.
On a separate matter, what would people's feelings be if next season the club shared Yankee Stadium and Citi Field as their venues. Say like 12 games at Yankee Stadium 5 at Citi Field or something like that. The benefit to this would hopefully be better schedule and flexibility. And also it could expand our fan base a little bit into Queens and Long Island. They would have to allow season ticket holders some type of opportunity to opt out of some games.
It looks okay. Some sections more heavily sold than others. Given that this is the first day the tickets are open to the general public, hopefully it will fill up nicely. Weather is supposed to be good too, which should help.
What I don't know is how much that lower section holds. Tough to get a sense of how many people will actually be there.
It still is skipping some stops in Queens.Nice! Seems to have been some confusion about whether the 7 train was skipping some stops in Queens, but according to the MTA site, it should be running properly meaning I'll have a 7 minute trip to the game!
Sigh..... One of these days I'll learn not to trust the MTA.It still is skipping some stops in Queens.

Feelings mutual, sir. Right on.
I actually opted out on renewing my ST for next season when the whole debacle with the Hartford game came about but my wife kept drilling in my head “we are Founding Members, we’ve been there since the beginning blah blah” so I change my mind and renewed.
I am now regretting the decision and even though Citi Field is like extremely close range from Forest Hills and has the best eatery spots, it’s not Section 206 at YS. It’s not the Chicken Bucket Section. Concessions at CF don’t sell chicken buckets. There’s no Meet & Greet after the game. There’s no Hard Rock Cafe to spend my $50 gift card and now that gift card will go to shit cause it will expire at the end of the year and God knows I’m not traveling to the Bronx while the Skanks are in the playoffs or to be out and about when there’s nothing around to do.
I really hope my rep don’t contact me cause even though is not his fault I will give him an earful cause I feel disrespected.
That’s my rant.
Everyone have fun this Sunday and hopefully the team give us that W
Contact your rep regarding the Hard Rock gift card. They may be able to get it extended to next year for you.Feelings mutual, sir. Right on.

Patricof said publicly that they were hoping to hit 20,000 for the game.
According to this link, the lower bowl holds 17,300 - and that's all that is open at the moment, with a couple of sections held back. The second level, which consists of the suites, holds 8,100 for a total of 25,400.
The upper deck holds 16,400, but it seems very unlikely to be open.
