That just means people have to get creative.

Shea, on the other hand...

[Ceetar]

is that a game though? I don't ever recall seeing proposals there either, but you can get married at either place for on an offday/offseason I believe.

[batmagadanleadoff]

You'd figure that with the Wilpons so strapped for dough, they'd be in on the engagement action. I woulda guessed that the Mets charged the most for this stuff.

[Ceetar]

is Steve

https://twitter.com/jerushatorres is Jerusha.

No mention of the brick or proposal anywhere. They're both involved, and even seem to have co-founded, a liquor distribution company or something. Steve tweets about sports, and seems to love Michael Kay (pfft). Jerusha doesn't.

If I was like, a reporter, this might make a fun story.

[ashie62]

She likes Bacon Bloody Marys...

This is just silly. Not everything published supports the cause
or drum you continually beat. Do you really think that charging
$2,500 for something like this would help the 'dough strapped'
Wilpons? Jeff probably tips his door man that much a couple of
times a year.

And you know, it's more than $2500 and you in fact CAN do it.

You can make your dream a reality and get married at Citi Field. We can accommodate all of your wedding wishes and even hold your marriage ceremony at home plate! Here are our event space suggestions for your wedding reception: Caesars Club Acela Club Delta Sky360 Club

[Guest d'Kong76]

Poor Promenade Club, gets no respect.

OE: No bathrooms, it might be a little awkward to ask your
guests to go out and use the regular Citicans.

Your post is so stupid, that I regret having to waste my time and everybody else's responding. You're obviously the only idiot here who thinks that I really think that a Citi Field marriage proposal fee would significantly improve the Wilpons finances. My cause? What cause would that be? You're a jackass.

What CAUSE?? C'mon.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Because posting that marriage proposal article is suddenly a "cause"?

[Guest d'Kong76]

Yeah, that's clearly your cause.

He's a deep and thoughtful man. Strong of character, moderate of appetite. Generous in his relationships and reasoned in his positions.

[Guest d'Kong76]

*blushing and laughing*

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

you girls should stop fighting allatime.

[batmagadanleadoff]

d'Kong76 wrote: Yeah, that's clearly your cause.

If you have something to say, then say it. I'm supposed to guess as to what you think my cause is? Because I don't even know what the phrase means in this context in a general sense. I don't even have the slightest idea what you generally mean by "cause", let alone what you think my specific "cause" would be. Cause? As in goal? Like to effect something? By posting that marriage proposal piece?

[Ceetar]

you can also pay a Mets alum to show up at your wedding.

Or, maybe, just maybe, if you're lucky and serve a chaw-and-Twizzlers appetizer round and have a rich aunt or two, a Mets alum will show up for free.

Yes, you're supposed to guess. Let us know asap!
If it helps, replace the word "cause" with "agenda" or
something of the like. Please don't bother with a four
sentence ramble of general this and context that or that
specific something stuff.
Just guess!!

What is it?

[Zvon]

Hey, lets get something straight. I'm the idiot around here and I work very hard at it.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

yeah and both of you gotta put down the handbags, it's no fun watching this crap.

[Frayed Knot]

I dunno, I'm kind of enjoying this.

If you're such an idiot how come I never see you at the meetings?

Please resubmit.

But you better be careful which one or make sure you have a cash bar, at least.
