Mets Win! Santana comes through!!!

WHAT A GAME!!! I want to thank Samantha for inviting me out last night. It was Amazing!

Santana pitched 8 innings of two run ball. He comes through every time and we finally got run support. The bases were loaded and a fan ran onto the field. It was one of the best "fan runs on the field" moments EVER!

The runner was in a grey sweat suit and ran from 3rd base to 2nd base

He juked the first security guard who fell flat on his face. The 2nd guard caught him and tackled him. What happened afterward seemed fake. The kid's sweatpants fell off. His white bare ass was exposed to the entire stadium. Everyone was going wild. It took another couple minutes to carry him off to left field. They took him into the visitor bull pen and the crowd kept going nuts.

The last time I saw someone run onto the field was at Yankee Stadium. The security there seemed twice the size of the chubby guys at Shea. It took one guy to tackle the gentleman and zip tie cuff him. And they carried him off like a tied up hog for roasting.

Two things. If you ever order the chicken cutlet sandwich at Shea, don't. You get barely any chicken and the bread's stale. Sushi is good but over priced.

I had a serious face on for the picture.

Then I switched it up!

In Church we trust.

Live and die by the METS

Mets are a half game out of first place right now. I'm rooting for them because they're my team. I'm a Mets fan. I've always been. I don't remember how I became a fan but I just am.

I also have a $150 riding on them to win the world series.

Rainbow over Shea going into CitiField. It's a beautiful sight.

Last night at SHEA with B-Day girl Sammy

I've never been closer in my entire life to the field at Shea. I've been in sky box seats, bleachers, upper deck and pretty much every level of the stadium except the plush leather goodness behind home plate! My good friend Samantha invited me out to the Mets vs Padres game last night and I was in heaven. It was to celebrate her bday and yes, she's kind of a big deal! We are so close that there was an incident where a foul ball hit the ground and a spec of dirt fell on Sammy's lap.

Outside of that I met great people. Including Mr. Met! All of Sammy's friends were oober kind and Sammy's uncle is certainly a cool dude. The food was great. I had a Mama's of Corona sandwich. It was like Whoa. Ended up at The Pine located inside the Holiday Inn. According to my friends Bobby Valentine use to have his restaurant there in the same location.

Simon and Samantha! Thanks for inviting me out Sammy!!!

One of two scouts we saw. This dude had a radar gun and a laptop purched on top of the seat.

Yup, that's Sammy's name up on the Birthday Board!

Dameon Easely is the reason why I have the new iPhone. More on that in a future post.

Jose Reyes sang along to most of the songs. He's also always smiling.
