Faces in the crowd

Sometimes watching the people behind home plate are more fun to watch than the game. 
Have you seen any fun goings on lately?

We saw a little old lady with cotton ball little old lady hair taking about 5 minutes to get situated in her second row seat seat a week or so ago 

You guessed it, some large jerk with a hat on came and sat in his first row seat right in front of her. All you could see of her the whole game was one purple sleeve and the top of her hair

The JK Simmons/Spiderman thing was funny last night, although odd that my dude was wearing a Tigers shirt under his Mets jersey.

I like spotting minor celebrities at Dodger games that the broadcast doesn't pick up on.  I also like watching Mister and Missus Met in home games pass by the tunnel as they cross over from the first-base side to the third-base side, happy as can be while moving from job to job.

Mister usually just passes, but Missus tends to have a different sense of her professional responsibility, and knowing she is on TV, usually mugs for the camera for a second before moving on.

In a season like this, the seats behind home plate tend to be occupied by less privileged classes as the season progresses, with corporate reserved seats passed down to less valued employees, and so you can kind of bond through the screen as more relatable types get a taste of the high life for a night.

Many celebs are attending the basketball playoffs. I have a feeling that we'll be seeing them behind home plate again once that season is over, IF the Mets give them a reason to return.
