-Mr. Met leads all active Major League mascots in high fours.
-Early in his career, Mr. Met lost his voice root, root, rooting for the home team. He may be quiet now, but can gesture in 12 different languages.
-Mr. Met's head is the only earthbound orb with its own gravitational pull, explaining why fans are so drawn to him.
-Mr. Met's image debuted in 1963 when it graced the covers of the official Mets yearbook and scorecard.
-In '64, Mr. Met earned rookie-of-the-year honors as Major League Baseball's first modern live-action mascot.
-Though Mr. Met has never been seen in the same place as Super Met, there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that they are one and the same.
-On Opening Day 2000, Mr. Met became the first Major League mascot to entertain fans overseas as the Mets played their first regular season game in Japan's Tokyo Dome.
-The only current Major League player who stands as tall as Mr. Met is New York Yankees' pitcher Randy Johnson.

Mr. Met Would Like To Thank Mets Merized For All Their Help In Designing This Site.
On the first spring morning of '63, with the dew still dampening Coogan's Bluff, Casey Stengel, the old skipper of the young Mets, saw a figure in the distance. Deep in the Polo Grounds' center field stood a fan like no other -- a fan clearly born to root for the New York Mets. Casey became so taken with the big guy, he invited him to join the Amazin's the very next year at their new park, Shea Stadium. Mr. Met was home. His baseball head began to swell with the win in '69 -- and grew even larger still in '73 and '86 and again during the Subway Series in '00. Today he joins Mets fans, both young and old, to cheer his favorite team, at every game, at the big blue ballpark in Flushing.
omg are you kidding me?? Now we traded Ryan Church, one of our mostly consistent players for a has-been in Jeff Francoeur??? Who I always scream "easy out!" at Braves games in Atlanta?? you guys are killing me!! ugh! :(
Hey Mr. Met..I understand the in's & out's of the game, I understand that we don't have anything close to a full team, therefore it is impossible to compete. I even understand not giving away our future for a quick fix. But what I will never understand is why those poor Mets fans, who spent all this money to attend this game today have to be by mocked by Dodger fans as they all pass by the Dodger Rotunda....I hate the Dodgers and have since 1988.
THERE'S NO BETTER WAY THEN THE D~BACK WAY VOTE MARK REYNOLDS ALL DAY EVERYDAY!!!!!!! THAT WAY HE WILL TAKE UP THE LAST SPOT ON THE NL ALL STAR ROSTER THANKS XOXOXOXOXO! GO D~BACKS GO!!!!!!!! HIT, RUN, SCORE WE WANT MORE!!!!!!
I still have hope...its one thing that keeps me going maybe...alot of things I managed to screw up in my life but just knowing that theres a Mets game kinda cheers up my rotting gloominess that i have in me.
