I'd imagine Chang and Nas are THRILLED about a Citi Field/Chick Fil-A team-up.

My recollection is that this is an annual event. The Mets roll out an event with a bunch of new food items that are universally praised in the press at this one event but can be hit or miss in the park during the season.



Also: it's interesting that they think new corporate partners is something people care about. Perhaps if they started by introducing some aesthetic standards with the advertisements. No, I'm not naievely suggesting the Wilpons remove all the ads.* They are obviously using them to make money. But how about limiting the color pallate just a little? Outfield wall ads can be one color on another. Same with the facings of the middle deck. I recall that Fenway has done this.





*The RF scoreboard excepted. Remove the ads, put in a bigger board. Maybe the single easiest thing they can do to improve fan experience that isn't player-related.

The scoreboards have always struck me as cheesy with all those ads on them. Yes, bigger screens, please.
