This was great to see:

Hopefully this was Mr. Met’s worst experience since the summer of 2025, when he fell off the stage at a Lumineers concert. That was after the hipster singer threw the costumed dope a tambourine and he fumbled it.

“I’ve dropped the tambourine – HO!”

“I’m falling off the stage -HEY!”

There was a lot of talk about booing on Tuesday. Lots of opinions stemming from the Home Run Derby. It’s one thing to boooo the players, because we wanted to see Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper win. But don’t get it twisted; there’s plenty of respect for guys like Jordan Walker and Willson Contreras because they’re ballers.

There is, however, no respect for Mr. and Mrs. Met. They can go straight to hell.
