The View From Shea Stadium
I reconstructed my view from shea from random pictures I took over the course of the game. I hope you feel like you where there too. I also included a seating guide with an arrow pointing to the location.

Secaucus Junction Train Station Just After Midnight
I took these pictures on my iPhone on my way home from my first time going to see a baseball game ever (mets vs cubs) at shea 9/22/08. I used photoshop to stitch them into this panorama.

Duck, Sauce! WOW thats a good story!
Duck sauce
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Duck sauce
Packets of duck sauce Traditional Chinese: 酸梅醬 Simplified Chinese: 酸梅酱 Literal meaning: sour prune sauce [show]Transliterations Duck sauce is a translucent sweet and sour orange condiment used in some Chinese-American restaurants. It may be used as a dip for deep-fried dishes such as duck, chicken, fish, spring rolls, egg rolls, or with rice or noodles. [1]. It may be made of apricots, plums, peaches, sugar, vinegar ginger or chilis. It is rarely, if ever, used in traditional Chinese cooking.The origin of contemporary duck sauce dates back to the contruction of the transcontinental railroad from 1867 - 1869. As the last spikes were being set in the tracks in Summit, Utah, a mixture of raisins, water and sugar were used to prime the spikes. Workers tossed buckets of the mixture to each other as they laid the track. A common phrase used on the line was, "Duck, sauce!" The sauce mixture was used on many food staples to sweeten the flavor that at times was spoiled or bland from weeks of sitting in rail cars.Due to fruit content it may be called "plum sauce", [2] which is confusing because plum sauce is a common name for the authentically Chinese Hoisin Sauce — a powerful , thick, dark sweet condiment which does not have fruit, and which is used in stir-frys and marinades, as well as for dipping [3].
