New York Mets Exploring 'Quiet' Section for Fans with Autism

New York Mets Exploring 'Quiet' Section At Citi Field For Families With Autistic Kids « CBS New York

NEW YORK (WFAN) – Yes, the Mets are exploring the possibility of selling tickets for a “quiet” section at Citi Field. 

The Amazin’s posed the question to their fans in an email survey Wednesday: “The Mets are considering adding a designated ‘quiet’ seating section with lower volume PA announcements and no music or cheerleading. How likely would you be to purchase tickets in that section?”
It “would apply to a section in the second-deck, left-field seats,” which sell for between $20 and $78 apiece under the team’s dynamic pricing plan, according to the New York Post. The paper quoted a few Mets fans who panned the concept, calling it “stupid,” “boring” and “just not baseball.” 

The idea is to make Citi Field more welcoming to families with autistic children, the Mets told WFAN’s Boomer & Carton.  More @ http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/06/14/mets-exploring-quiet-section-at-citi-field-for-families-with-autistic-kids/
