The thing is so tacky and embarrassing, that it's difficult to believe that anybody would develop an emotional attachment to it.
But I seriously wonder how many Mets fans think this way:
"The apple represents the fun of the Mets," says Klein, a 26-year-old law student. "They are kind of the upstart kids and the fans really take that attitude to heart. The apple is part of that and it'd be a shame if it's not brought over to the new stadium."
Not just the fans, but the owners, coaches, players, etc.
The Mets have existed for 46 years and currently have the highest payroll in the National League, filled from top to bottom with highly-paid free agents.
But they're upstarts.
Walter Matthau is the coach and Tanner Boyle is the shortsop.
