Mr. Met and the New York Mets organization have some explaining to do, considering Mr. Met has not been fired for the incident! But until we get an update as to why not, we’re just going to bask in the Twitter genius that has ensued.
The New York Mets mascot was filmed flipping off a fan after the Mets lost to the Brewers. There’s no way the mascot can argue it wasn’t him since he’s the only person with a baseball-shaped head.

That was the coolest thing Mr. Met has ever done so I hope you’re “dealing” with it by giving him a raise

For the record, I am appalled by the video Mr Met took part in. It is clearly disgusting and inappropriate.My son Barron was deeply affected

While the actual gesture was probably uncalled for, we can’t help but give credit to anything that brings Twitter joy!
