Jerry Seinfeld rips Mets fans for booing players at 2013 MLB All-Star Game at Citi Field
Comedian and perhaps Mets most famous fan says booing embarrassed him: 'The American League is not the Taliban. What are we booing Miguel Cabrera (for)?... I was very embarrassed by that.'




What is the deal with Mets fans?
This is what Jerry Seinfeld, comedian and longtime Mets shill is saying, according to CBS-New York, after Flushing fans booed players during introductions at the All-Star game at Citi on Tuesday.
�This is one of the lowest moments of my lifetime of Mets fandom, when the Citi Field crowd was booing (players) that they see as rivals to their Mets team,� Seinfeld told his buddy Steve Somers on WFAN Wednesday. �And I�m standing there, I was in shock. I was embarrassed. I thought it was horrible manners.�
Seinfeld continued: �These are the best players, in the game you love, that have come here to put on a show for you, and we�re booing them like 5-year-olds. As if there�s some sort of real animosity... The American League is not the Taliban. What are we booing Miguel Cabrera (for)?... So I was very embarrassed by that.�
Jerry from Queens did like the way the Mets and their fans treated the farewell of Mariano Rivera, however.
�I felt redeemed by the reception that we gave Mariano Rivera and that brilliantly staged farewell.�
