Mets fan is a fake-falling repeat offender

Found July 06, 2012 on Holdout Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
TEAMS: Philadelphia Phillies,  New York Mets

Via Holdout Sports:

A New York Mets fan played a gag on some fellow fans during Thursday night's game at Citi Field against the Philadelphia Phillies by taking a "fall" after pretending to be bumped by another fan as he walked by. 

The fan exaggerated things by throwing his beer cups in the air, which conveniently were empty. Afterwards, it became quickly obvious that the fall was a joke as the man immediately got up and dusted himself off as he walked away.

The Mets fan seemed to know where the television cameras were, and interestingly enough, SNY did some investigative work and found video from July 2010 showing the same fan pulling the same "falling" routine before.

Who's to say how many times this man has done this off camera?

Tejada Proving To Be A Core Player For The Mets

Via Mets Merized Online  |  July 07, 2012
I’m marveled at the incredible season we are seeing from our starting shortstop Ruben Tejada. Who could have expected such poise and confidence in someone so young and in fact younger than most of our top prospects who are still toiling in the minors. When the Mets let Jose Reyes go this Winter and announced that 22-year old Tejada would be the everyday shortstop and that...

The 2012 Mets: What Can We Expect In The Second Half?

Via Mets360.com  |  July 05, 2012
The first half ended with a bang, the second began with a whimper. In game #81, attended by a Citi Field record 42,516 souls – of which I was one – that rare bird, a Met laugher, the Mets became a 44-37 team. As Jonathon Niese set down Phillie after Phillie, as Daniel Murphy flirted with history, as David Wright repeatedly broke Shane Victorino’s heart and this one was...

Ruben: He’s Not Just a Sandwich. He’s Our Shortstop

Ruben Tejada has been fantastic at the top of the Mets lineup. Let’s hop in our blue and orange Delorean and type in the date Dec 4 2011.  Now let’s get this bad boy up to 88 mph (faster than a Chris Young fastball), and go back in time. “John from Queens, you’re on the FAN”, comes over the radio as the car appears on Roosevelt Ave.  ”Tanks fuh takin’ my cawl.  Tuh...

Minor League Ball’s John Sickels released his Mid-Season Top 120 Prospect List this week and there were some nice surprises from a Mets perspective as Wilmer Flores jumped from being previously unranked to No. 76, an indication of how far Flores has seen his stock rise this season.

Mets’ Chris Young is the ugly girl at the bar when the lights come on

The New York Mets lost to the Phillies yesterday 9-2.  It’s not the end of the world, I’m not going to sit here and tell you that the Mets season is over…losses happen.  However, it is concerning that Chris Young continues to struggle later in games.  I liken Chris Young to the ugly girl at the bar who talk to all night, only to see she’s not what you thought she was...

Mini-slump, knuckler might cost Dickey All-Star start

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  July 06, 2012
Now that New York Mets right-hander R.A. Dickey is a first-time All-Star at age 37, the knuckleballer is aiming to start the game for the National League. But he might have put that assignment in jeopardy by giving up five runs to the Phillies in seven innings Thursday, saving one of his worst outings of the season for his final start of the first half. Dickey ultimately escaped...

NEW YORK -- The Citi Field crowd was silenced as quickly as it had stirred, with Lucas Duda's liner landing in the mitt of Chicago Cubs reliever Carlos Marmol, who quickly threw to first for a game-ending double play. Just like that, the New York Mets fell 8-7 to the Cubs a moment after sparking an adrenaline-filled sense of deja vu. One night after a ninth-inning rally beat...
