G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Verizon Text Poll Question of the Day on CitiVision: What was the Mets' first home? The choices were Shea Stadium, Ebbets Field, the Polo Grounds.This is how Mets fans at Citi Field who participated answered:Shea Stadium: 7%Ebbets Field: 52%Polo Grounds: 41%That distant mournful noise you might have picked up during the broadcast was me crying.I wonder where the Text Generation got the idea that the Mets ever played in Ebbets Field.
Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 We're still getting a LOT of look-sees at the new place, especially during the weekend games. In just 6 games at Citi, I've overheard an uncomfortable amount of conversations that started with "What's '37' mean?Speaking of Misappropriated Traditions 101: What was the "Sweet Caroline" reading today?
Guest Kong76 Guests Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 I was just going to ask, did they do Sweet Caroline today? Yesterday?I wonder if they only asked Shea, Polo, and some made up name what the %'swould have been.
G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted May 31, 2009 Author Posted May 31, 2009 No Caroline unless unless I missed it. "Meet the Mets" solidly entrenched in the eighth inning. It and Parnell, I'd like to think.
