Let's go Mets! A bunch of friends of mine are Mets fans and awhile back invited the rest of us to opening day if we wanted to go. Me, neither a die hard Mets or Yankees fan, agreed to go. With an early start to the day consisting of getting to the field, finding a place to park and then pre-gaming for the couple hours before first pitch/opening ceremonies was a wonderful blur. Surrounded among Mets fans always puts one in the sporting spirit, a borrowed Mets shirt to wear also helped. I always love the feeling of a sunny, breezy day of sitting in the stands surrounded by baseball fans. Whether you're cheering for the home team or not. Not only was I able to take the day off, my boss brought his two sons to the game as well, who I met up with for a few innings. Mets came out on top for opening day against the Atlanta Braves winning 1-0. Third Mets game and second Mets vs Braves game (my first Mets game was also against the Braves) later, I have a 2-1 winning record. After a long exhausting day, I rejoiced with the Mets fans and headed home. Thanks to Tom for remembering I wanted to go. Here's to many more Mets games!
