TY so much for this, the original Mets Amazing Era! Others have uploaded this but always the updated version which added the 86-88 teams, but edited out the "celebrity" interviews along with some of the songs like "79 guys on 3rd for the Mets". This was the one I always remembered, had it on VHS forever. This covered 1962-85, it came out in 1986 but before the playoffs & WS Mets win.

Nice video of the 1962-85 New York Mets. Narrator Len Cariou mentioned that Mr. Met was the team's first mascot, but that's a little off. Technically, the team's first mascot was shown in this video;it was a basset hound named Homer, which was around the team's first two seasons and wore a "Let's Go Mets" sign. By the time the Mets moved to Shea Stadium in 1964, the dog was gone.

So this of odd as an anniversary piece. It covers 1962-85 which is only 23-years or 24-seasons, but they’re celebrating it as a 25th anniversary. Worse still is the timing. It leaves out the greatest Mets team of them all - 1986 - which would’ve been included had it been an actual 25th anniversary retrospective made in 1987.

What a pleasure it was to grow up in NY and witness the evolution of the 1980's Mets, culminating in their amazing win in 1986. They fought a lot--both the opposition and their own teammates. The best line ever written was when Strawberry and Hernandez exchanged punches in Spring Training in 1987. One write wrote: "That's the first time Strawberry hit the cutoff man."

Grew up on the Mets in the 1970s when they had some decent teams before 1977. Went to almost every game in 1980-81 then some in 1982 a few more until 1985 then moved to Philadelphia in 1986. Best memory: anytime Seaver took the mound, they didn't stink. I did banner day in 1980!

Even adjusted for inflation, tickets at Shea were not expensive. $1.50 for general admission in 1980, raised to $4.00 in 1981 and you'd get moved to Section 9 of the Mezz so the stadium would look full for the cameras. It wasn't great baseball but it was major-league and nice to be part of. Then by 1985 they were just the Yankees in Queens.

Even adjusted for inflation, many, many things were cheaper back then as compared to today. That's not an opinion, it's based in pure fact. Housing market, healthcare, you name it. Even the subway, 15 cents in the early 60's as opposed to 2.75 today. That's an increase of over 1000% in 50 years. The list can go on for days.

Frank Cashen had a brain fart and left Tom Seaver off the FA compensation protection list and was claimed by the White Sox. He probably puts us in the playoffs in ‘84 and definitely in ‘85. He also doesn’t win his 300th game in a Mets uniform, a damned shame !

Berra had a rested George Stone for game 7 and starts Matlack on two days rest. Hodges' would not have made that blunder. With a real manager in 2006 and 2016 we are probably champs also. A history of bad managers and GM's in Met's history!
