Back in the days of Shea Stadium, this apple would rise out of the hat (then located just beyond the center-field wall) every time a Mets player hit a home run. While a new, larger apple has now taken its place inside Citi Field, the original still maintains a fairly high profile here in the plaza outside the ballpark.
There are sure to be those who mock me, but I don’t care. :-P :-D
I am a Mets fan, and I miss the old Shea Stadium.
Glad to see the old Home Run Apple still survives.
