Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans.
Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here.
Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here.
Our old friend Ross Chapman hits the jackpot (blue and orange M&M’s!) in Las Vegas thanks to the numbers you can find in only two places: above the left field wall in Shea Stadium (and good luck with that a year from now) and on the world-famous, well-traveledFaith and Fear in Flushing t-shirt that pays homage to Casey Stengel, Gil Hodges, Tom Seaver, Jackie Robinson and random acts of Met fandom.To order your own lucky tee for the too-good-to-be-retired price of $17.31, just click here (luck not included, but if you’re a Mets fan, you already knew that).
This kid has a much busier social life than anyone MY age…
