I have two thoughts about this whole situation. One. It is a private business and the Mets organization has the right to restrict what is put on signs or if they don't want signs being brought into the ballpark. People start bringing up what about Freedom of Speech. Freedom of Speech doesn't apply here when you are in a "private business's location". So yes, the Mets have the right to take away the signs. They also have the right to remove you if they feel like you are being disruptive. Remember Feel. Feelings are subjective.

Now let's talk about my second thoughts on this. The Mets just put a target on their backs to being known as the Same Old Mets and LOLMets again. Now you are going to have more folks coming with signs, making signs at the ballpark with cardboard they find and markers, there are going to be Fire Sterns chants, there are going to be casino chants. The Mets might have just opened up Pandora's box of fan hatred against the team. If this team continues to be bad and there is a truncated or no season in 2027 you as an organization are going to have a fan revolt where they will not show up at the ballpark. All those ticket "memberships" you sold after Cohen tried to embarrass the fans for not showing up in 2024 are going to go unsold. You think the casual fan is going to show up? Nope. That isn't going to happen either. The Mets are not a premier attraction to come to see just to do "something" touristy in NYC. The politicians are starting to wake up about the casino land grab and fans are starting to do the whole Cohen only wanted a casino and that is why he bought the Mets. What am I trying to say in all this rambling? The Mets should have just let to be and not drawn a target on their backs with this. Now the fans know you guys are soft and are going to make it even worse during games for the organization. Are the Mets going to throw out everyone that has a sign that disagrees with them? Who knows.

Mr Met is always playing around with Steve Gelbs during post game stories so I am not going to kill the Mets for letting this happen but this kind of thins is so on brand with the old LOLMets narrative that it just makes sense. The Mets at times just can't get out of their own way for causing mayhem to their own brand. It's not even like they were like "screw it, let's make fun of this situation". It was just the baseball gods lining up the Mets to Mets like they used to do all the time in the past.
