Home Run Apple to New Mets Stadium

2nd NE Quadrant\The Approval Matrix: Week of March 3, 2008


We posted about this issue before:

Gothamist reports that the Home Run Apple will not be moved to the Mets’ new Citi Field baseball stadium when the team moves in 2009; however, fans can still sign a petition at SaveTheApple.com to prevent the Apple’s retirement. The Home Run Apple has been sitting behind the center field wall in Shea Stadium for 27 years.

However, it now appears that the Apple will be moving to the new stadium, but according to AOL," Mets officials said they did not know whether it would be the same fiberglass apple that has popped up like a champagne cork following Mets homers since 1980."
