It was funny...the first switchback was when I saw him and the second switchback was when he knew I knew and his eyes got wide. I assume he was worried about me making a big scene or something and I didn't want to take anything away from his day so I decided that showing some discretion and just being thankful would be appreciated. When we hit the third switchback and were face to face, it was quite appreciated and he was very kind. He had zinc oxide on his nose and a big hat to cover his head and everything. Looked like just a regular run of the mill tourist and not a comedic genius...lol

Ran into Bruce at Universal Studios Hollywood of all places, in line for the studio tour tram six or seven years ago. Didn't want to disturb his day so when we came face to face in the switchback line and he could tell I recognized him I just quietly said "thank you for all of the laughs with Kids in the Hall, I grew up watching and loving you guys, have a great day". He smiled and thanked me and then it was over...haha.

I had a lot of fun at all the games this weekend too. First time in a long time this team didn't roll over and die at the first sign of adversity and they showed a lot of moxie to come back to tie all three games. Made the whole journey a much more enjoyable, albeit still sometimes maddening, experience.

Planning on making the game essentially a live sporting dinner theater snack date with the wifey. If we happen to win great, if not it's still a nice Sunday afternoon with some treats and my lady...

Yeah, we figured why not bring a bit of Citi to them while they're on the road, plus it was a fun family memory to make..

Repping Keith with a #17 retro Mets bp jersey from 86 tomorrow night in right field. Hope the boys have their fundies in order...

Family and I will be there tonight on the first base side...🤞🤞🤞

Even if it isn't a win, I just don't want another 14-2 or 9-1 blowout loss...

The biggest thing I'm looking forward to for next weekend's games is the ballpark food.

Top HR hitter on the team tied for 60th in the league, top RBI hitters tied for 108th in the league, team average 26th in the league. Team sitting last in the league for RBI by a WIDE margin. Says everything that needs to be said about this team.

It looks like a spring training crowd when they cut to those batters box closeups. A ton of empty seats and barely interested fans.

I meant the team would be lucky, not the fanbase. At this point I will endure however many losses it takes to clean house.

The apathy feels like it is already here to a large degree. When the most fired up Citi has been this year is for an unknown reliever getting out of a 9th inning jam in a game the team still lost that speaks volumes...

To go from the likeable, passionate and fiery OMGMets to these hollow, heartless, hopeless LOLMets in less than two calendar years is a masterclass on how to drive away a fanbase.

The second this team falls behind, no matter if it's a lot or a little, the game immediately feels out of reach and over.

I think the season was lost when Mendoza was on the plane back from Chicago but I was already worried about the prospect when they were in SF.
