This was a make-up game from a June rainout and they announced that 6,000 fans were at that game. Me and my nephew stayed to the end and by the time the game was over there was only 500 or so fans in the stands. It was a depressing sight.

One of the most depressing games I've ever been to, a rain-out make-up game with about 5000-6000 people at Shea.
All I remember about the game is the Mets were losing by the 7th or 8th inning and there were about 500-1000 people left at Shea. The people that were left started walking down to the better seats and all the ushers were freaking-out yelling at the people telling them to go back to thier original seats. It was just a joke.

Depressing for some, I found going to a completely empty Shea Stadium to see a MLB game a surreal and memorable experience. My friends and I were sitting all alone in the right field upper deck along the 1st base line. There was no sound from the crowd, but the sound system was still totally amped up. When people say there were about 500 fans there in the later innings, that is not an exaggeration.
Now it's your turn! Tell us what you remember of this game:
Please note:
We're looking for your comments about this specific
game. We've had people use this space to share their thoughts on how the
current season is going, or on ways that the Mets can improve the team.
Such comments, unless in the context of
this particular game,
will be considered off-topic and will be removed.
Example One
The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like
Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with
any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:
Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a
double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith
and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in
the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and
we would let it remain.
We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our
site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take
steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate
Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments,
and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.
Thank you!
