Citi Field’s First Streaker, New York Mets Superfan Craig Coakley and a Quick Citi Field Review

So, I took my first trip to Citi Field last night to see my beloved Mets beat the Braves in 10 innings. I gotta say, the new stadium is a fan friendly treat. There’s bigger and better seating options, more food options and tons of great places to see the game other then your seat. The Jackie Robinson Rotunda is a nice touch and some fun center field activities for the kids makes for a family-friendly evening.

Still, many parents probably covered their kid’s eyes last night when Citi Field’s first ever streaker, 29 year-old Craig Coakley took the field. The almost in the buff Mets hero wore a strategically placed orange towel with “Let’s Go Met’s” painted on his back. He took the field from the first-base line and slid into second. He responsibly adjusted himself, and gave up in centerfield to security. Knowing that they no longer will show streakers on TV, the premeditated streak was filmed for prosperity’s sake… please see below (warning: offensive language):

Coakley was charged with interfering with a sporting event and trespassing. He’ll pay a high fine for his stunt and two minutes of fame, but he will live on forever in our hearts as the first streaker profiled on Buzz Pirates.
