Bad News For The Phillies: Grimace Is Heading To Citi Field With A Bunch Of Crazed Mets Fans And He's Ready To Kick Some Fucking Ass

Hey Phillies...

BING BONG (that's the sound of the subway doors closing before Grimace eats you alive, not the old Knicks rallying cry).

I know Phillies fans are puffing their chests out after somehow escaping an eerily silent Citizen's Bank Park with a win on Sunday, which is fine. However, we are now in Phase 2 of the series where the games shift to Queens and the freak factory known as Citi Field. A lot of the Mets chatter around these parts lately is about odd squad of mamalukes (myself included) that gather in the gambling cave to stream their games. 

But the thing is we aren't the outliers of Mets fans. Instead, we are a perfect representation of the nutjobs that cheer this team on through all the carnage the franchise has put our souls through, which has led to some of the perfectly chaotic moments from this wacked out season.

Now we have our big purple leader showing up for the biggest game of the season after inspiring the winning streak that made this playoff run initially possible after throwing out the first pitch and gave a second much needed shot of life into the team in September by getting a seat painted in his honor. 

You can throw out all your fancy moneyball stats, sabermetrics, and advanced analytics. But sometimes a sport as stupid and as long as baseball comes down to mojo, juju, and vibes. Which is why ya gotta believe this big purple bastard is leaving Citi Field with a W and the Phillies' souls.

UPDATE: The Boss Man is greeting the fans, and I imagine Grimace, as they arrive today. God I love this team.
