The Magazine Cover Derby has now concluded. In the final round, the competition's oldest and most iconic cover, "Casey of the Mets" prevailed over "Dwight the Great". The represents a rare loss for the 1985 version of Dwight Gooden. The winning cover was unveiled today in the courtyard at Sweden's Royal Palace in Stockholm. The ceremony was hosted by the Prime Minister of Sweden himself, Stefan Löfven. The proud ghost of Casey Stengel was also present, as was our lovely (and somewhat confused) receptionist and reality show star Maja. http://leaptoad.com/mets/covers/images/magazines/MCD_Ceremony.jpg> The winners of our shower curtain contest were Patrick and Cindy Lake of Emerson, Iowa. Pat and Cindy have been awarded a shower curtain featuring the winning cover. Unfortunately, they didn't thoroughly read the contest rules, and were unaware that they would have to receive a surprise visit from one of our staff photographers. It's important to read the fine print! http://leaptoad.com/mets/covers/images/magazines/shower2019.jpg> And here's the final bracket! Thanks to all who participated! We'll do this again in another 57 years! Mark it down now on your 2076 calendars so you don't forget! http://leaptoad.com/mets/covers/images/magazines/mcd006.png> Oh, one more thing... http://leaptoad.com/mets/covers/images/2019/2019preview.jpg>
