Dar-ryl! Dar-ryl! (Tell Him Yourself)
by Greg Prince on 8 June 2008 4:51 pm Addendum to Mets Stuff Worth Knowing About: You can meet No. 1 prodigal son Darryl Strawberry Tuesday night between 6 PM and 7 PM at the Best Buy Rockefeller Center store, 559 Fifth Avenue at 46th St. No, he's not the stuff in question (though he surely had the right kind in his day); rather, Straw''ll be signing copies of Essential Games of Shea Stadium and another DVD that sounds so cool that even I didn't know about it 'til just now (not to imply I'm at all cool): Shea Goodbye: 45 Years of Amazin'. Matthew Broderick narrates and it touches all the Shea bases, the big Met moments, the beloved Shea traditions (Banner Day!) and even the non-baseball stuff.
Sounds pretty good even without Darryl's signature.
MORE DARRYL: Strawberry's return to Shea as a Dodger is Monday night's Mets Classic on SNY, 7 PM. Spoiler alert: we win.
