\"photo<\/a>The Mets will have a couple of new items at Citi Field this year, from food to ticket options to drinks.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is no mention of beer, which is disappointing. Perhaps it’s just going unmentioned and there will be some new cool local options around, and I’ll certainly be looking for them, but I’m not holding my breath. They do mention an expansion of the frozen drinks stand that was around somewhere last year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

El Verano Taqueria will have a cantina menu with frozen drinks, and they’ll also be a frozen and mixed drink bar near section 414 on the promenade. That’s right behind home plate on what I call the Citi Field Piazza.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Blue Smoke will have pork rinds, as well as a delicious sounding brisket sandwich.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Shake Shack will get their vegetarian option, the ‘Shroom Burger. Also\u00a0High Heat Cheese Fries,\u00a0 Cheese Dog\/High Heat Cheese Dog, and a \u201cMeet the Pretz\u201d concrete (black & white custard, chocolate covered pretzels and malt powder).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Mets Hall of Fame will get a Johan Santana No Hitter exhibit as well as a ton of All-Star stuff to celebrate the Mets hosting the All Star Game.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There will be various ticket deals as well. $10 student rush tickets, military tickets, and some others including a free ticket for your birthday.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As always I’ll spend a good chunk of Opening Day wandering the park to see what’s new and hunting for secret beer stands. I’m sure there will be a couple of interesting things here and there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
