New York Met
History
"The Mets landed on the Major League landscape in 1961, joining the Yankees and becoming the second professional baseball team in New York. In 1966 the Mets drafted Tom Seaver who’s name would become synonymous with Met baseball. Seaver holds the Mets record for wins, ERA, starts, complete games and shutouts. In ’69, the team captured its first division titles on rout to their first World Series titles as the Amazin’ stunned the baseball world. In ’86, the Mets once again captured the World Series as Gary Carter, Keith Hernandez and Dwight Gooden all stood tall for the team. In 2000, the Mets played in the first Subway Series since 1956, losing to the Yankees in five games."

Shea Stadium
"The Mets play their home games in Shea Stadium located in Flushing, New York. The $25.5 million stadium opened in 1964 and seats approximately 55,000 for baseball games. Shea Stadium cost $28.5 million to build and took 29 months from its groundbreaking on October 28, 1961, to its dedication on April 17, 1964. It was originally to be called Flushing Meadow Park, but a movement was quickly launched to name it in honor of Shea. The stadium contains 24 ramps and 21 escalators. It was also the first stadium capable of being converted from baseball to football and back using two motor-operated stands that moved on underground tracks. Shea Stadium is the noisiest outdoor ballpark in the majors because it is in the flight path of La Guardia Airport. The story goes that when the city scouted out stadium sites in 1962, they went during the winter, when flight paths into La Guardia are different, so they never anticipated the aircraft noise."
