I will never forget how crazy the fans went that night (it was comparable to Game 7 1986 which i also attended). <br /><br />I just remember the loge section bouncing up and down - literally vibrating. People were jumping up to hand slap each other as we left the stadium via the famous ramps.<br /><br />Henderson became my favorite player, and 3rd base my favorite position.<br /><br />Let's go Met's!gmoneyballsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1879473706233234375.post-21938387671627069632009-09-28T17:09:24.806-04:002009-09-28T17:09:24.806-04:00I was also at the game in eighth grade with my par...I was also at the game in eighth grade with my parents and I remember the fans stayed and made Henderson come out a second time after he went into the clubhouse.

It was tremendously exciting: you would have thought we won the World Series. As we drove out of Shea onto the Grand Central Parkway, cars horns were honking. We even got a honk as we neared Hicksville, LI. I suppose what made this game memorable (I still talk about it) was the unexpectedness and joy of brief success. The Seaver trade had brought the franchise to a low point and this brought us hope. We went to the first home game the Mets played in 1962, and have been fans through thick and thin since then!opaguynoreply@blogger.com
