Seriously, all kidding aside…when you walk around with Mets gear on people either feel bad for you or the laugh at you…

I find this disturbing and wish the Wilpon’s were Mets fans so they would understand too..

I wasn't there, but if he was really dissing you in front of your child, he should be fired. I would have probably overreacted and said something about how Mets fans enjoy a day off at the park while Yankee fans get the challenge of operating a ride that requires the intelligence and skill ofatraindmonkey.

To be fair, there have been relatively few periods where it was "cool" to wear Mets gear

When my son was little back in the late 90's he wore his Met cap everywhere and would get "Mets stands for ---My Entire Team Stinks" all the time. Didn't stop him. Who cares, especially Yankee fans who've won once in the last 11 years. Pretty bad for a franchise whose mandate is to always win- losing 10 out of 11 years. Just relax and enjoy our young home-grown players.

I can’t be any less cool then being some front running Yankee fan…

Chicks don’t like followers

My daughter was clueless to it….she is only 4 but I am sure she will get her fill of ridicule for being a Mets fan in her own due time…

anyway, again it looked like the kid regretted it after he said it so I had to let it go

Forget Freddy and Jeff, you should have gone to the manager of the park to "thank" him for his employee singling you out. Also how you will never be giving Great Adventure your dirty Met money since it is obviously not appreciated.

Lets see how good the joke is to Mr. Funny Guy after that.

Well she may be only 4 but it's never too early to start prepping her for the "nice girls don't date Yankee fans" talk.

he was a kid and probably just made a mistake, I could tell right away he wanted to put his foot in his mouth and he made a point to wish me a good day after the ride so I let it go.

>You are a gentleman and should be commended. Many people would have put the kid on the unemployment line. Good job, sir.<

>People feel bad for me and I live near Pittsburgh. How bad is that?<

:) haha

Thanks you...thats gotta be the best post I have read here is a very long time.

I didnt find it funny and I am a pretty good sport...it was hot a heck I was sweating my nuggets off and wasnt in the mood.

poeple say stuff to me all the time and I laugh at it all....maybe doing it over the loud speaker is where he crossed the line..plus lets not forget he is gettting paid to make me have a good time

But like I said I felt like he regretted it so........

I live in the Philly burbs and get good-natured cracks from people all the time. Luckily this year I can say at least we don't <suck> as bad as the Phillies. On my son's first day of school after moving here he wore a Mets shirt and it was mostly teachers giving him static, but he just says what I say, I always root for good instead of evil.

ill just have to chalk it up to some more "character buliding" I guess...

Actually the joke realy was kinda lame....

wasnt cleaver or whitty in anyway..

.just kinda like Mets stink, Yankee rule! Drrrrr

Mets are a joke not the fans, well at least not all of them....

Sounds like something that would happen in Na,zi Germany "Look at the Je,w over there",
truly a sick society!
