The GAY team's staduim!
As a diehard Mets fan, I do not want to attend games at "Insert Corporate Name Here" Stadium. First, the new facility should not be a stadium (there is only one stadium in NY... when New Yorkers go to see a game we either go to "Shea" to see the Mets or to "The Stadium" to see the Yankees). Now, we all know that Baseball is best played in bucholic settings such as in Parks or on Fields... all evocative of a rural environment. So why not call the new ball park "Flushing Meadow" or simply "The Meadow". After all, what could be nicer than spending a summer afternoon watching a game of baseball while sitting in a meadow.

:You're right, I think all mets fans should reach out to Fred Wilpon and ask him to reconsider. [[User:Axiomm|Axiomm]] 04:55, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Change name to "New Mets Ballpark"?

All Mets PR releases refer to the project as the "New Mets Ballpark" and I think that this corresponding article should have the same name.

Huh?
I agree. As seen HERE, the Mets are currently using the name "New Mets Ballpark" until the official name is decided. This article should be renamed "New Mets Ballpark", with "New Mets Stadium" redirecting to this page.--Letsgomets1212 19:26, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comparison table

The comparison table is a nice addition, but the colors make it hard to read, I think. --Veronique 15:40, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added the table. I thought the colors not only gave the table some Mets flare, but I also thought that the colors helped distinguish one ballparks facts from the other. I suppose it could be removed, but I kind of like the way it looks (that and the fact that it took me a half hour to figure out how to do it). Maybe we could get some other opinions on here?--Letsgomets1212 19:26, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It is very hard on my eyes. The table itself is a nice addition, but the colors either need to be changed or removed. There's a reason orange was only ever a secondary color on the Giants and Mets uniforms. —D-Rock 21:16, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I took care of it, everything is normal now. I'm glad you like the table! --Letsgomets1212 22:32, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ballpark Info Table

Could someone add one of those ballpark information tables? One of the ones that go on the side of the article and give basic facts about the stadium, like the one here. I'd do it myself, but I am Wiki-inept. Cowami, Worshipper of Qeueue 22:20, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Add what information I missed. --Zimbabweed 03:07, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures

Should I add pictures of the stadium constuction? The constriction site is 100% visiable from the upper deck at shea.

Not yet, all it is right now are some spikes in the ground, some piles of dirt, a crane, and a some tubes. Wait until you can actually see the stadium being built before you post pictures. I don't believe they have even officially broken ground yet.-Letsgomets1212 17:05, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, since us Mets fans are more modest than those Yankee fans, I don't think we even get an official groundbreaking ceremony.Cowami, Worshipper of Qeueue 19:15, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, supposedly, the have not yet "officially" broken ground, even though they have started to do some work. I'm sure there will be a ceremony in the near future. Perhaps right after the Mets are knocked out of the playoffs (or after the World Series if they win it).-72.68.209.175 21:23, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
