Mets: Bonus Giveaways This Weekend

The Mets are stepping up their efforts to get us to go to CF. Here are three tweets from this morning:

#Mets say Thank You to our fans for an Amazin’ home record this weekend at Citi Field with randomly awarded seat upgrades and gift cards

Because #Mets fans are our 10th man, tonight 10 fans will win a signed Wright jersey. Saturday, 10 fans get a signed Reyes drawstring bag

Sunday, 10 fans will win an autographed Bay bobblehead, and 25 fans will get player-worn jerseys from the game. We believe in #Mets fans!

I know nothing about Twitter. What's with the new spelling of #Mets?

# usually denotes a #hashtag to group tweets. So if the Crane Pool Forum were having an event, you might suggest everyone use #cpf when talking about it. Makes it easier to group, and easier to search (although Mets returns stuff just fine, but some things aren't as clear).

also, I think tweets tagged #mets gets linked to on certain mlb and mlb at bat gameday thingies.

If I'm one of the winners do I have to swap my shirt with the Mets player who is giving me the jersey off his back? Where's the "Let's Get Naked" image when you need it?

Definitely. And youre' disqualified if you're wearing a Bay Jersey but get selected for Wright's, or vice versa.

Does nobody else find the whole idea of this-player-sweated-in-this memorabilia really f*cking repulsive?

It's also rather fetishistic.

Re: Mets: Bonus Giveaways This Weekend

I agree with you both.
And I find it fantastic.

So it's fuckin' repulsively fetishistical and fantastic.

I think I have a problem with it cause I never win anything.
The guy next to me does and he flaunts it all night and after awhile I just wanna puke on him.

Or, IOW, "certify him as game-used."
