Since baseball season started ahead of the UBC kicking off, I decided to post a blog for the Mets home opener instead of the season opener.
As a lifelong Mets fan, I know pain, I know disappointment but I gotta tell ya, every year I come back to my team hopeful that they'll have a good year, that I'll enjoy watching more games than not and maybe, just maybe, one of these years they'll go all the way. I was 6 when they won their last World Series, so....maybe this year please?
The Mets opened the season on the road, and well, these last 3 games ahead of coming home were not good. The team seems shaky, everyone is getting hurt, and they lost 2 of those games really, really badly. I am excited though that Tylor Megill will have the ball tomorrow. Check out last year's blog about Opening Day and then the blog I posted the next day, with my recap of how it went for Tylor in You're Ready Right Now. It's about baseball, but it's also about each of us and seizing an opportunity.
I don't have tickets yet but hope to get to Citi Field at least once. If you're planning a visit, here are the vegan options this year. I don't understand why they don't offer vegan hot dogs, I mean come on, at the ballpark??
At the game last year, I had the Beyond Sausage & Peppers and the Vegan City Burger, both were excellent. I wanted to cap it off with some Dole Whip but never made it over to that section. Fingers crossed I'll get there this season!

Tell me about your favorite sports team in the comments!
I've never been to a Baseball, Football or Basketball game as my family isn't much into Sports. Even though my son did play Soccer and he eats, sleeps and dreams of Wrestling and Basketball. I wish your team the best and I hope you get the Dole Whip. Thank you, for sharing the menu options which I shared with my son who said the food sounded so good.
My favorite sports team is EVZ, a Swiss National (Hockey) League team. I'm trying to think if there's ANY vegan food item available at the concession stands. Maybe the Fries? Glad you get so many delicious options. Good luck, Mets!
I feel your pain! I'm a die-hard Phillies fan and when we made it to the World Series last year and lost, I was depressed for days. Here is wishing for great ball games in sunny weather at our happiest places - the ballpark! - Elisa
Thank you for sharing this. BTW, I'm from IL, so my fave teams are the Bulls, Cubs, and the Sox! - Danwil Reyes
That's an impressive Vegan options list. We're LA Dodger fans but hubby has been a fan of them since they were in Brooklyn!
