New contributor and long time Mets fan. Also been taping and collecting old Mets games for decades. I have a ton of regular season games from the mid 80's till the late 2000's. Any other fans have the same hobby? I love to find fellow Mets fans to compare collections.

What's the prize of your collection?

Every season finale from 1984-2019 (minus 1992, 1993, 1996 and 2001) Give or take about 200 Gooden starts Almost 100 games from 1986, and generally at least 40-50 games from other seasons.

Are any of the games sharable? I'd love to see this game, for sentimental reasons: https://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1985/B08100NYN1985.htm

No. Your thread title merely triggered a memory of the Chicago tune 'Old Days' (from 'Chicago II' I believe ... one I haven't heard in years) which prompted a quickie re-writing of the opening stanza's lyrics to semi-match your little hobby there.

Haha, no problem.

Larry Bowa's last hits against the Mets, ending a long and illustrious 17-year legacy as a Mets division opponent, before he joined the team about 10 days later and did perhaps more damage in a Mets uniform than he ever did against them.
