Mets Unveil Commemorative Grimace Seat at Citi Field

The purple seat honors the McDonald's mascot's role in sparking the team's midseason turnaround.

Grimace threw out the first pitch on June 12, initiating a seven-game winning streak for the Mets.
Since Grimace's appearance, the Mets have achieved a 53-31 record, the best in the majors during that period.
The commemorative seat is located in section 302, row 6, seat 12, symbolizing the date of Grimace's first pitch.
The seat is available for purchase for the remaining home games of the season.
The Mets are currently in a tight race for the final National League playoff spot, tied with the Atlanta Braves.
