R.I.P shea. you will be missed.

I shed a tear during the ceremony. Isn't it ironic how for years we all bitched and moaned about wanting a new stadium? Well, now we have one, and from the looks of it, it probably will be one of the nicest in baseball. But now that we have it, I really don't want it. I want Shea. I don't want to call any other place home. I don't want to see Shea come down. I don't want to see that place get demolished. I want to go back to Shea.
Regardless of anything, Shea Stadium will ALWAYS be our home.

It's the fanfare for the common man (the song) - definitely an emoting piece to play and apropos for the last ceremony - the game however, nuh uh.
At least those of us who were there got to see Beltran hit the last Met HR @ SHEA before the back to backers by the marls. @#$@$%

Citi Field is nothing special to me. I was lucky enough to get tickets for opening day and it is nothing special. From what I hear, it has MORE obsrtructed views then Yankee Stadium, and a lot more then Shea. Its a shame that Shea is just a rectangle of ruble now, but they did a terrible job with the construction planning, as there are stairs instead of ramps, imagine us Met fans walking down with Phillie fans after a game, jammed packed into a tiny area, someone will get hurt.

The Piece is called "The Fanfare for the Common Man". It's by Aaron Copeland. It's not necessarily from 1 movie, but from many, used at military funerals, etc...
All purpose song because of it's emoting characteristics.

Watching it on TV was a little scary because the sound of the light going out one last time was loud! Let me ask you something, did you go down to the field after the game?
