The Mets first home was actually a polo field. They played at Historic Polo Grounds from 1962 to 1964 until Shea Stadium was completed. At the beginning of the upcoming 2009 season, their home stadium will be the brand new Citi Field. This new stadium will feature a natural grass field and allow about 45,000 fans to buy Mets game tickets.
The Mets have won the World Series twice. In 1969, the Mets beat the Baltimore Orioles in five games and accomplished what some say was the biggest upset in World Series history. In 1986, the Mets beat the Boston Red Sox in seven games for their second World Series Championship. In 1969, 1973, 1986, 1988 and 2006, the New York Mets won the National League East Title. No wonder so many fans want Mets tickets!
Current star players for the Mets include David Wright, Carlos Beltran and Johan Santana. Buy tickets online to see these and the other Amazin Mets play in the brand new Shea Stadium. Mets tickets would make a great gift for any baseball fan.
As the new team in town, the first order of business was to build a base of fans who would buy Mets tickets. In an attempt to appeal to the affections of former Dodgers and Giants fans, the team took the colors orange and blue. Their cap logo is identical to that worn by the New York Giants during their final years, and the blue color is a nod to the Dodgers.
Of course, it was more than just uniform colors that won over the fans, sending them scrambling to buy baseball game tickets every season. And the Mets certainly have their fair share of New Yorkers. For nearly 30 years, the Mets not the Yankees held New Yorks record for baseball attendance. In 1970, the Met drew nearly 2.7 million attendees, breaking the record set by 1948. The Mets subsequently went on to break their own record five times before it was reclaimed by the Yankees decades later. Thats a lot of Mets tickets!
