I wasn't drunk enough to forget it!
Bobby V. blew some games and the Mets had just been swept by the Braves in '99. I think it was with 2 weeks left in the season.
Was that the same night a girl asked me if I was one of the bat boys?
Some other great memories:
Ventura hitting 2 Grand Slams in 1 day.
Ventura's Grand Slam Single
Matt Franco's hit off of Rivera
Fonzie hitting a homer in the playoffs.
I don't know the specific game, but I saw Doc pitch in '87. The park had a completely different feel to it.
Seeing a fan get on Strawberry's back (it was my first "boo bird" experience... the guy told him there are two sides to this game after he screwed up in RF)
Seeing Straw return to Shea as a Dodger and seeing fans throw strawberries at him (again, I was a kid and thought it was funny as all Hell)
Mike Hampton's complete game sending the Mets to the WS.
Bobby Jones' 1 hitter
Meeting the poster known as Neil Allen.
Meeting the great Baboo.
Meeting both Lindas.
Damn, I'm pretty lucky.
