Saying good bye to Shea

It was unbelieveable that shea was going to be knocked down. it felt like yesterday when i went to my first game there i was sitting on the firld three rows up and i seen how big these players were and it just blew me away. I was amazed about how big that shea was and how many people had come to watch a baseball game. I was only seven than and i loved baseball. Now as the years have gone by I been getting to go to shea more and more. i have had season tickets and been to shea alot. i loved going there and there are words that can't explain how amazing it is to be able to go there. Coming into Sheas last season i knew that i had to come as much as i can in there being of the season it was real hard to come but when it came to the end I was there once a week. I was pretty upset that they were knocking it down and that all the good times that have happen there would be washed away. They last day at Shea could have been better if they have won but there is nothing we can do about that. At the end of the game watching them bring out all the players that have had an impact on shea was great. I couldn't believe all the great players that had put on a mets uniform. Watching the last pitch that was throwen at shea was hard. It hit be that it was going to be gone forever. The way that they close shea down for good. i will never forget that. Watching Tom Sevaer and Mike Piazza walk the field all the way to the back of the outfield wall and turn and wave. than watching them open up the doors and closing them behind them. That was the perfect way to close the books on Shea.
