Last Saturday, SNY.tv’s Ted Berg and I traveled to Philadelphia to watch the Mets take on the Phillies in Citizen’s Bank Park, while also hanging out with fans at a large tailgate before the game.

To watch a short video from the first part of our trip, click here.

Speaking of video, on Wednesday, my MetsBlog Minute for the pre-game show focused on Carlos Delgado, and how best to handle him going forward.

Anyone go to the Sunday night game? I’ve never seen a bigger group of Eagles fans wearing red. Those people are brutal.

Some drunk guy sitting behind me cursed at a 10 yr old Mets fan. Classy Philly. Very classy.

Sad thing is…nice city, nice stadium, bad clientele.

I was with you up until ‘nice city,’ unless you were referring to like the 1700s or something.

Ollie Ollie Oxen Free April 25, 2008 at 11:43 am: Haha..maybe it’s because of where I stayed. Stayed in Center City. Near all the shops, restaurants. I liked it. The subway is kinda shady, but for the most part, I liked it.

For the most part = until I sat in the stadium and 10 obnoxious guys sat behind me and yelled for 9 straight innings, asking how many games we won last September. The only thing I was able to come back with was, “how many games did you win in October.”

They are annoying a miserable bunch and I would wear a Chipper Jones jersey before I cheered for that team.

Awesome Ted and Matt. A little humor in the time tension that being a Met fan is just great. Do it again in the future, maybe from Turner Field. Thanks for the laughter it brought me. Let’s Go Mets!
