No, I only went there one time (vs Baltimore in July 1999) and left early. My cousin was not present. I was surrounded by many jerk offs, though.
The games on the new Shea Stadium DVD set: DISC 1: 1969 World Series Game 4 vs Baltimore Orioles--Tom Seaver's 10-inning win was a decisive point of the '69 World Series as the Mets upset the heavily favored Orioles. DISC 2: 1986: National League Championship Series Game 3 vs Houston Astros--This come-from-behind bottom-of-the-ninth victory ended with Lenny Dykstra's famous walk-off home run. DISC 3: 1986: World Series Game 6 vs Boston Red Sox--Considered "Baseball's greatest game", this improbable 10th-inning, miracle two-out comeback reached its climax with Mookie Wilson's swing and "...here comes Knight and the Mets win it!" DISC 4: 1999: National League Championship Series Game 5 vs Atlanta Braves--Robin Ventura's "grand slam single" won this 15-inning game endurance test. DISC 5: Sept. 21, 2001: Regular season vs Atlanta Braves --The emotionally charged first game in New York City after the 9/11 terrorist attacks was electrified by Mike Piazza's 8th inning 2-run home run. DISC 6: May 19, 2006: Inter-League vs New York Yankees--David Wright's walk-off hit snatched victory away from the cross-town rival Yankees in this classic see-saw battle.
i was a Yanks fan at that game, even though we lost I couldn't help but appreciate the quality of game I got to see for my ticket price. I was in 3rd deck on the RF railing, I knew as soon as Wright hit it that Damon wouldn't get it, I took that chance to make a quick path for the trains where I was greeted by Mets fans
My favorite Mo Vaughn as a Met moment was when he legged out a check swing blooper down the line in the 9th against...shit...I don't remember. But it was amazing to see fatty Mo Vaughn actually beat out the throw.
I saw my first Yankee game at Shea with the cub scouts in the 70s when they were renovating the Stadium. They were really bad. I saw the Who in 83 or 84. They probably weren't much better.
