Ceetar Apr 09 2014 01:27 PM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

is that a game though? I don't ever recall seeing proposals there either, but you can get married at either place for on an offday/offseason I believe.

batmagadanleadoff Apr 09 2014 01:29 PM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

You'd figure that with the Wilpons so strapped for dough, they'd be in on the engagement action. I woulda guessed that the Mets charged the most for this stuff.

Ceetar Apr 09 2014 01:34 PM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

[url]https://twitter.com/BoozeHound8 is Steve [url]https://twitter.com/jerushatorres is Jerusha. No mention of the brick or proposal anywhere. They're both involved, and even seem to have co-founded, a liquor distribution company or something. Steve tweets about sports, and seems to love Michael Kay (pfft). Jerusha doesn't. If I was like, a reporter, this might make a fun story.

This is just silly. Not everything published supports the cause or drum you continually beat. Do you really think that charging $2,500 for something like this would help the 'dough strapped' Wilpons? Jeff probably tips his door man that much a couple of times a year.

We can accommodate all of your wedding wishes and even hold your marriage ceremony at home plate! Here are our event space suggestions for your wedding reception: Caesars Club Acela Club Delta Sky360 Club

d'Kong76 Apr 10 2014 10:37 AM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

Poor Promenade Club, gets no respect. OE: No bathrooms, it might be a little awkward to ask your guests to go out and use the regular Citicans.

Your post is so stupid, that I regret having to waste my time and everybody else's responding. You're obviously the only idiot here who thinks that I really think that a Citi Field marriage proposal fee would significantly improve the Wilpons finances. My cause? What cause would that be? You're a jackass.

batmagadanleadoff Apr 10 2014 11:03 AM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

Because posting that marriage proposal article is suddenly a "cause"?

d'Kong76 Apr 10 2014 11:05 AM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

Yeah, that's clearly your cause.

you can also pay a Mets alum to show up at your wedding.

I was going to call Texas and ask if could propose to "John Doe" just to see what happens...

Mets – Willets Point Apr 12 2014 12:04 AM Re: Citi Field's not the Marrying Kind of Ballpark

I saw two proposals at Fenway Park last season and both were done in front of an enormous Budweiser ad. I wonder if InBev subsidizes proposals that use their ad as a backdrop. Or perhaps the happy couples really love their Bud and pay extra for that?
