The Mets will begin offering tours of Citi Field starting Memorial Day weekend. (The Mets will be away in Milwaukee) I’ve been hoping for this for a while.
Free to season ticket holders, and also free parking provided, which is nice to hear.
Fans will tour the press box and productions areas, visit the Empire and Sterling Suites, step onto the field on the warning track (weather permitting), visit the Bullpen, take photos in the Mets Dugout, and see the Mets Clubhouse. The one-hour tour will conclude at the Mets Hall of Fame & Museum.
So much like other teams tours, but all should be fun to see. I’m excited to see the behind the scenes stuff, and it’s always cool to see the dugout and the clubhouse. And like all tours around the country, you end in the gift shop (which is where the Hall of Fame & Museum exits). It says the Mets Clubhouse, which excites me, as the couple of tours I’ve been on of other stadiums has only been of the visitors clubhouse. I assume that you won’t see any clubhouse if the tour is on a game day though. One, possibly silly, thing I’d like to see but I don’t know how feasible or accessible it is is the inner workings of the home run apple.
Sounds like right now the tours will only be on weekends for individuals, and will cost $10, which seems like a very reasonable price for a NYC stadium tour to me.
