Re: the opening day poster. Rheingold! I remember that.. and now the song is stuck in my head. “My beer is Rheingold, the dry beer. Think of Rheingold whenever you buy beer”.

It is a 1969 Mustang as Stick mentioned, I googled it and it led me to a listing for it on Amazon for only $19.99. I added the link to your listing, Drew. (We had two Drew’s here I see.)

In the spirit of gratefulness, thanks. That was the description I read so I ran with it, but I’m glad you spotted it. I’m betting that of the two, it probably is a ’69.

I’m with you…some of the points in what we can see from the article (specifically all of the seats being “wider than average” and the fact that the writer needed to point out that the stadium was “column-free”) are just fun to read.

Personally, I want that calendar…preferably with this year’s dates, but with that exact/basic style.

in the spirit of accuracy, the description on the mustang is wrong. It is a 69 or a 70 (not to mention not being a convertible, which should have been a big tip off!)

Very cool idea for a feature. I wonder if you have the rest of that article? It was interesting to read.

This segment is a great idea! Love these pictures! The argument taking place above my comment and in every OTHER thread on this site, however, I’m not too fond of. Can the “Mets Eye Candy” segment be made into a “debate-free zone”?

That car reminds me of the days of the bullpen carts. The Mets always had an odd baseball shaped golf cart to drive the pitchers from the bullpen to the mound, while the Yankees always had a an actual Toyota decked out in pinstripes and Yankee logos.
