DelayedPenalty Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 If they don't put a large Snoopy sleeping atop the stadium, it will be a failed marketing opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Would've been NAILS had they gone with JetBlue or Green Giant Stadium. But I suppose "The Snoop" will have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Just say no to "The Snoop." Snoop is a rapper and I don't think anyone calls Snoopy "Snoop." Just call it the Met and be done with it.On another note, I guess I am too young, but I was never a fan of Snoopy. My brother who is five years older had Joe Cool shirts growing up and was a big fan, but I never cared for Snoopy at all. The only time I saw Peanuts growing up was really the holiday specials, and while I liked Charlie Brown, I didn't see the draw in Snoopy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClevelandHockey Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Aren't the Mets associated with MetLife? How do Giants fans feel about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Aren't the Mets associated with MetLife? How do Giants fans feel about this?I fail to see the point, different teams can partner with whomever they get deals with. It's also a baseball v. football matter, as its not like we're talking Mets/Yanks or Rangers/Isles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the admiral Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Giants fans can be Mets fans. I know there's a traditional A-teams/B-teams (Isles and Devils being B1 and B2, I guess) split in New York, but the permutations of pro sports allegiances are virtually endless! For example, If I lived in New York, I'd go Mets/Jets/Knicks/Isles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Agreed.Anyway, MetLife has an advertising deal with the Yankees.Have had for years.You'd figure that "MetLife" would have been a natural for Shea Stadium or Citi Field in the same way that we were all hoping for Green Giant or JetBlue to sponsor the new stadium, but as far as I can remember they've always chosen the Bronx over Queens.

TheClevelandHockey Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Well I'm not a New Yorker, so I've always thought as the accepted alligences as Jets/Mets/Isles as opposed to Giants/Yankees/Rags.But then again, no one bothers to root for local teams anymore, so maybe I'm just behind the times.

My father's idols growing up were Mantle and Namath. I'm a Yankee and Jets fan because he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
