I remember attending a game in the late 70's, sitting in the upper deck with my entire family (my brother and mother stopped going with my dad and I by 1983 or 1984 as neither of them really cared, or care now, for baseball), eating one of those half vanilla and half chocolate ice cream cups, and leaving sometime around the 12th or 13th inning of a game that they would go on to lose while we listened to the call on the AM radio in my dad's car. I thought it was against the Cubs but I couldn't find a box score from any time in the 1976-1979 seasons where a Mets/Cubs tilt at Shea went more than 10 innings.
