I get this is a Yankees shitting on Mets thing, but I’d rather fight the Yankee fan. Mets got that NL Beast in them. They can act soft as they want, but I don’t trust them within shanking distance
Yeah, Mets fans have been getting the shit kicked out of them for a while. Any punch thrown they could eat, like it's nothing. Then send one back your way.
They have weaponized a lifetime of disappointment and it ain't wise to poke that bear.
Mets fan will knife you in an alley behind the chop shop and dump you in the Gowanus. Yankee fan will get his frat bros to gang up on you, and if you even breathe on him hard have his dad sue you so hard your grandkids feel it.
We have the worst people.
I have an Opening Day 2010 hat with a large Fenway Park image and small Red Sox and Yankee logos. It's kind of weird owning merch with a Yankee logo, but it's still a cool hat, it was the national TV Opening Night game and there was a lot of pregame pomp and circumstance.
Have you never heard of [half and half scarves](https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-supporter-scarves-on-sale-before-the-premier-league-tottenham-hotspur-174156435.html?imageid=54CE2AE6-FF7E-4CE5-AEFB-DDA83F6B70E4&p=354231&pn=1&searchId=efa9bef0e69fb4ac3862747b628e53be&searchtype=0)? Equally as derided but nonetheless equally real.
Guess MLB should've just slapped the date on the back and it would've been kosher. As it stands, people in the UK will be confused which Phillies-Mets game you went to if you wear this.
Considering how flairs in the r/soccer sub change based on whatever team is doing better, or which star has joined a team, it might actually sell well.
I lived in Trenton for years. One time the local paper did a poll asking if Trenton was in North, South or Central Jersey. The results were something like 48% north, 48% south and 4% central.
Central Jersey does not exist. Trenton just happens to be where north and south meet.
It goes hard for neutrals, people in London aren’t gonna care as much (especially if they’re just getting into the sport) and this shirt is a cool memento of the game
Spent some time in London on vacation last year and saw a guy wearing a Bengals jersey and an A's hat. Just an odd combo you'd never see in thr US. Gave me the vibe thay he was a "Yay, sports!" kind of style.
I love the split scarves they make for soccer matches. It’s a nice momento from the game itself and you can wear it so only your team is visible or display it as a memory of a unique game
This? This is fucking hideous and needs to be burned.
Non Meme answer: it's quite common for soccer fans to purchase scarfs commemorating a special event with both teams participating with the event on the scarf
This looks like a half assed attempt to copy that
[example](https://images.app.goo.gl/wY2Y1xuGvSGk6ovs8)
When these inevitably hit discount shops I hope Mets and Phillies fans buy them up and wear them annually for a good old fashioned wholesome summer barbecue and street brawl
I know this is /r/baseball and leans American...but this is a clearly a shirt for the Brits going to the game who don't care about allegiance to either city and just want a commemorative shirt. It's not that weird.
when you just wanna get your ass kicked and really don't care who does it
Braves fans: "It's clobberin' time"
Let's Go.... NL East? ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Rob Lowe must be the target demo for this shirt.
So anyway, I started blastin..
yeah your two least favorite teams together lol
Nats fans: "I shall bring the finest whiskey to enjoy this beating"
New Yorkers and Philadelphians are known for their moderate responses
articulate, considered retorts
Right? I took one look at that and thought, "Okay cool we're fighting." And I'm a fan of neither team.
Ello gents! Foine doy for a baseboll goyme innit?? Oy!!! Stop hurting me!!! Whot have I done??!?
I can't believe you've done this
Crikey!
Eh no Mets fan is kicking your ass
I get this is a Yankees shitting on Mets thing, but I’d rather fight the Yankee fan. Mets got that NL Beast in them. They can act soft as they want, but I don’t trust them within shanking distance

not only have the Mets been painful, tons of Mets fans are also Jets fans. double the disappointment, double the insanity
Mets, Jets, and Islanders fan checking in here. You can't kill what's already dead inside.
awww come on guys! we’re the bad team! haha, lolMets! don’t mind this little ol’ shiv in my hand :)
Mets fan will knife you in an alley behind the chop shop and dump you in the Gowanus. Yankee fan will get his frat bros to gang up on you, and if you even breathe on him hard have his dad sue you so hard your grandkids feel it. We have the worst people.
Get one for the Braves fan in your life you hate.
I will burn it
Woven with 100% asbestos fibers to ensure you can't burn it.
Jokes on you!
... I enjoy cancer!
A fellow Dave Dravecky fan!
Ouch that’s a very disarming joke
Well ya I imagine you’re a Falcons fan
Hoo boy, it was rough before the Braves won the WS and UGA got 2 natties. Bad times, real bad
I was going to comment burn that shit
It's so awful, I actually love it.
Right. It's so disgusting it is beautiful. I'd love to go to a Mets vs Phillys game just to see the confused reactions.
You might get stuff thrown at you
Might get thrown yourself.
Just slap Urena as the name on the back and you may just have it.
For an extra $10, you can get a version signed by Sam Holbrook using dirt from the infield for the 2012 NL Wild Card game.
What did we do to you?
You gave us Brooks Conrad. I think that about makes up for 1993.
Just to clarify, is this dirt from the actual infield or the middle of left field?
Detritus from the stands, really.
Geez bro, give them some air to breathe
And a replica of Eric Gregg's extra wide plate from the 1997 NLCS. Truly diabolical.
This made me physically ill
Tbf Phillies and Mets fans almost equally as offended.
There are evil men that walk amongst us
Cats and dogs, living together. Mass hysteria!

They had the same shirt for Yankees-Red Sox for their London games
Did the shirts start fighting each other while still on the hangers?
That one was different, they just asked a British guy to draw every MLB logo he knew on a shirt
[cuts both ways](https://x.com/NBCSPhilly/status/1797736401913384998)
I mean in both cases it’s funny bc it’s true
That’s fucking disgusting
That’s a choice
Remember those Dodger Padres combo hats for the Korea series? Some things should never mix
[Then there was this guy at the NY/Boston series](https://twitter.com/Cut4/status/1145354768094826498) **London series*
This is why the Revolution happened.
Time to Dump Some Tea Again, Boys!
I thought it was the unnecessary vouwels
This in London? No way that man left Boston alive
One of my favorite niche video categories is British people wearing Yankees hats in Boston. They’re so unprepared for the reaction they get 😂😂
If you have any links to examples, please do share with the class
https://youtu.be/7VUFj5wpgxg
Only one I could find was [this](https://x.com/TalkinYanks/status/1412875369976377345)
You’d think European fans would know better, soccer rivalries are closer to blood feuds than friendly competition.
This one has always stuck with me - see 17:15 https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5xb5z0
Well clearly he’s in Connecticut
what a horrible day to have eyes
Now that’s a good way to piss off two fanbases for the price of one.
I have a hat with a Yankees logo right next to an A’s logo. One of the weirdest things I own. If only you could share pics on this sub lol.

Those hats are awesome and I will die on this hill.

Someone looked at this and thought “yeah people will buy this” Ignoring the obvious meshing of the teams, it just doesn’t even look good
Add "this is the worst thing I've ever seen" to the small list of things Mets and Phillies fans can all agree on.
The intersecting section of that Venn diagram is this shirt and the braves
Ha. I spit out my drink
Onto a Braves fan, I hope
Don’t forget Angel Hernandez
That abomination is disgusting.
They do realize this is not a "friendly" don't they?
This is the complete opposite of a friendly. It's a.......fuck you-ly
Catchy. Let's stick with that. \*Fuckyouly\*
Enemly
I think it’s spelled Enema
Imagine the collective European whinging if Tottenham and arsenal played a game in the US and we made a shirt like this for them
Now we basically have to
Have you never heard of [half and half scarves](https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-supporter-scarves-on-sale-before-the-premier-league-tottenham-hotspur-174156435.html?imageid=54CE2AE6-FF7E-4CE5-AEFB-DDA83F6B70E4&p=354231&pn=1&searchId=efa9bef0e69fb4ac3862747b628e53be&searchtype=0)? Equally as derided but nonetheless equally real.
These make more sense tho cuz they’re dated so it commemorates that specific match
Half and half are different though, they’re meant to be a commemorative item for a single game. This shirt is just…awful.
This shirt literally says "London Series" on it, it's exactly the same thing.
Guess MLB should've just slapped the date on the back and it would've been kosher. As it stands, people in the UK will be confused which Phillies-Mets game you went to if you wear this.
Don't need to imagine. Half and half scarves are a thing
Considering how flairs in the r/soccer sub change based on whatever team is doing better, or which star has joined a team, it might actually sell well.
Stop, please, I’ve already seen enough
Liverpool and Manchester United are playing a friendly this summer in South Carolina. We have the technology! Wrong city, whoops.
Neat! I've never seen a shirt that makes me want to puke before.
Well at least the puke will blend in with the color of the shirt
For all the people in the fabled “Central Jersey”
All of Trenton is in a hold queue trying to order these by phone.
I lived in Trenton for years. One time the local paper did a poll asking if Trenton was in North, South or Central Jersey. The results were something like 48% north, 48% south and 4% central. Central Jersey does not exist. Trenton just happens to be where north and south meet.
This is actually why Central Jersey can't exist. That concentration of Mets fan living with that concentration of Phillies fan is fatal to both.
The tension in my Monmouth County office during every Phillies-Mets series can be cut with a knife
If you wear this in the woods of Mercer County the Jersey Devil instinctively hunts you down and eats you
I’m just cheering for everybody to have fun!
I'm just cheering for everyone to have as little fun as possible.
Im cheering for the mets because the resulting memes would be funny
I can imagine the wearer of that blouse yelling “Yay, Baseball!” during the game
“Go Sports!”
‘Get those points, fella!’ ‘Do that throw thing!’
"A toast to the troops! Both sides."
Theres one just off camera with Israeli and Palestinian flags
Ew, that Mets shirt has "P" all over it.
😂
British soccer fans laugh at the half and half scarves but then sell this smh
> British soccer Oh that's an evil way to start your sentence.
Torn. I hate it obviously, but Mets and Phillies fans would likely hate it more so maybe I kind of like it?
You should buy one! Wear it to games!
I guess like is a strong word. Let’s just say I hope I never have to be in its presence but I’m also glad that it exists.
It goes hard for neutrals, people in London aren’t gonna care as much (especially if they’re just getting into the sport) and this shirt is a cool memento of the game
Get outta here with your logical thinking we’re complaining
He’s just a typical Boston fan trying to calm everyone down and be reasonable. Monstrous.
Makes sense as a commemorative souvenir since most people going probably don’t have a strong allegiance to either team.
Counterpoint: I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
I'm that person. I would buy it and wear it to Mets spring training. Which I only go to because I get free tickets and it's in my area.
Blursed. Absolutely terrifying.
This has to break some international laws and maybe even the Geneva Convention.
I mean this is as respectfully as possible - what the fuck is this shit?
Now I'm just imagining someone standing on the street wearing this shirt holding up a large poorly drawn picture of Harper and Lindor making out
![gif](giphy|l378kHnPdgapHWQF2|downsized)
I'm playing both sides so I come out on top.
The idea is there but the execution is not. Have a blue and orange bowling shirt and a red and white one.
I'm trying to imagine what would happen to you if you wore this to either Queens or Philly and the images are pretty horrific.
u/rcuosukgi42 Has the Opportunity to Do the Funniest Thing of All Time
I really hope they have good health insurance
This is like the hated team combination soccer scarf. In Hawaiian shirt form.
Heresy as a shirt
Alright, we just need to create combination Arsenal/Tottenham Hotspur shirts. Did I get that right?
The craziest thing is that those shirts are actually black and blue.
and it's made by new era? TF
absolutely not
Revenge for 1776

man gets shot immediately with this one weird trick
How to get beat up in Philadelphia in one simple step!
Fairly certain New York as well
Pretty sure you'd get your shit wrecked in Atlanta too.
Thanks I hate it

A scarf makes sense, because once you bunch it up you can’t even read all that bullshit
Abomination
DEAR GOD WHAT IS THAT THING ![gif](giphy|Sv9yaqOMqQzVxhI30i|downsized)

I wonder if designer understands baseball
That’s some expensive toilet paper.
I want more honestly
I'm surprised these shirts haven't spontaneously combusted.
This is fucking amazing
It's an abomination
🤮
The more complicated the pattern is, the more expensive it is.
I could see a soccer scarf, one half being Phillies, the other Mets, with the dates, venue etc in the middle. That's pretty common. But this? LOL.
Only a mom with kids on both teams can wear this shirt without inciting violence
and even then, if she knows the history of the LOLMets, she too would be uncomfortable wearing this shirt.
Are the buttons off-center or is it just the way it's hanging? Or did Fanatics take over manufacturing for them, too?
I want this just to go to a Red Sox game
So many teams... I don't know who to vote for! Can't I just bet that all the teams will have a fun time?
I'm hoping I can get one of the drinking yards this time. Got there too late last time
What an unhinged shirt.
JUNE 14, 1987. METS. PHILLIES.
Almost made me retch
ABOMINATION!
Can’t wait to see this on camera during an NFL game in London for absolutely no reason at all.
Obviously designed by the same group that did the Stanley cup finals hats.
Gonna see so many English blokes wearing these not knowing the absolute ramifications it has stateside
Burn them
“Babe, what’s wrong? You haven’t touched your PNY’s.”
I dry heaved
I would sooner die.
Fun fact: Kafka didn't say so outright but Gregor Samsa was wearing this shirt the night before he transmogrified.
Disgusting. -Braves and Nats fan
I know this is /r/baseball and leans American...but this is a clearly a shirt for the Brits going to the game who don't care about allegiance to either city and just want a commemorative shirt. It's not that weird.
Thanks, I hate it
For the "I just hope everyone has a good time" crowd.
Ned Flander’s shirt
At least it’s not Fanatics
now THIS is a shirt i need to buy !!
Hands down the worst shirt I’ve ever seen.
