Transcript

I'm going to the Mets game tonight and Uber is trying to charge me over a hundred bucks to get there, so let's take public transportation for $3 and see how long it actually takes. And even despite that price difference, taking the subway was actually faster than driving because there was traffic. We only had to make one transfer onto the 7 train because we were coming from downtown Manhattan and we didn't have to wait for either of our trains. And the best part is that the 7 train drops you out right in front of the stadium, so there is very little walking. Once we got there and found our seats, it was immediately time to explore the food scene. Citi Field is known for having very good food and they did not disappoint. This double cheeseburger wash down with a Diet Coke was literally my dream dinner and it was just the start. I had to do the chop cheese Jamaican patty sandwich and it was something so good I had never tasted before. And for dessert, Mr. Met, Reagan and I shared a basket of chicken tenders and fries like you should at any baseball game.
