Vac’s Whacks: a little light reading before the main event tonight, on me trying to identify the first celebrity superfan in New York. If you grew up on #Mets games in the ‘70s on Channel 9, when rain delays were the best days, you may have a guess. nypost.com/2026/06/13/sports…

If there is a single moment that captures the @Mets historic futility, this may be the one. On June 12, 2009 this happened ... 😡
