I got to meet Mike Piazza at Amazin' Day


 

Me and the Mrs got to meet Mike Piazza the other day at Amazin Day.

Mets Owner Blows By Young Fan

 

I didn't have a chance to talk about this and Shannon from Metspolice was trying to call me out on not commenting on this from Amazin' Day.


From the context of the video, Steve Cohen is power walking to whatever his next stop is and blew by the young fan as he had his hand out for a high five. 

Some folks have said he just blew by the kid and put him on the pay no mind list.

Some folks said he didn't see the young fan and that he would've acknowledge him if he did see him.

Either way I think it would be nice of the Mets organization to find this kid's family and maybe have them sit in the Owner's seats behind home plate or maybe bring them into the owner's suite for a game or at least for a few innings especially when that was supposed to be Amazin' Day for the Fans.

What did I think about Amazin' Day?




What did I think about Amazin' Day?


The positive- the staff were all very pleasant and tried to be as helpful as possible with the knowledge that they had. The Panels were fun and the different areas once you got to them were cool.

My personal negatives- When you first came in at 1030 am the staff only let you go to elevators and not use the stairs. The lines for that were ridiculous. I saw they finally opened the stairs later but that was a time waster. I also think the Mets should have been announcing their panels or at least retweeting when they are announced by the hosts who are outside of the org when they announce it. The lack of info leading up to the day was really bad.

The lines going to the Clubhouse/Auto section/Cadillac Club/Radar pitch all feeding into the same area was crazy. There was no real signage and no one at the very back of the lines pointing to which line was which. It was super confusing and I heard a lot of complaints about that. A lot of folks use the confusion to cut the lines.

The Autograph lines themselves. I get the “Blind Bag” of the players behind the curtain. This way no one tries to rush one table and then that messes up time management. I like that idea of you not knowing who you are going to get. I would say for the most part the lines leading up to the autos were pretty good. I do have to say if I paid for the VIP experience I would expect a real fastness line where they can skip the GA line. We do this with the QBC. You go “5” VIPs then do “5” GA. I would also maybe have the VIP go in from the back, get signed then walk out the back to the next table and let them get all 4 tables. You’d get people to drop a grand on tickets for the next one and also maybe sell some ticket plans because of how well the Mets treat their VIPs.

The map should have been sent out in the “ Hey your time is at X and you should be there.”

The lack of the info on the panels wasn’t that great either. I knew when the panels were and what they were because I go the lineup from someone. It would really make it easier for fans to plan the day better.

I think a lot of complaints are going to come about is going to be some panels being before the admission to time slots for people to get in.

What did you guys think of it?
