The Mets like to dress up for road trips, so after their afternoon game at home tomorrow, what outfit should they don for the trip to our nation's capital?

Dress as your favorite special-interest group?

That's supposed to be Minor Threat.

Probably a Freudian slip because this is sure to be a minor thread on the CPF.

When I read the first choice, I got nauseous. The last choice made me laugh.

I'm not quite sure what the logic behind when to dress up is, since they did it twice, but never against an NL east opponent.

The punk shirts is understated, inexpensive, subversive, and vaguely offensive. How can I not click?

I voted National Park Service unis. Time to salute the folks who keep us safe from bears,
B'sides, leave the First Ladies' gowns for Derek Jeter.

But then there will be the PR fallout when the Mets catch flak from New York punk bands who feel they're being dissed.

I voted for Giant Foam Presidential Heads.

But not the usual suspects; Dickey would make a good Chester Arthur. Bay, always crippled, could be FDR. Lucas Duda could be William H. Taft. Josh Satin, who could be optioned back to Buffalo while the train is moving, could be William Henry Harrison. Keith Hernandez, Civil War buff that he is, could be Ulysses S. Grant, taking nips of bourbon on the sly. And who doesn't see Josh Thole as Martin Van Buren?

For the Bronx trip they should dress up as variously different sized, colored and shaped hunks of shit.

McKinley was shot in Buffalo, so whoever is next to get the ax from the big club gets to be him.
Face it, coming back to the clubhouse and seeing a giant William McKinley head in front of your locker is so much more subtle than simply saying, "umm, the skipper would like to see you".
