It seems that anything far-left Mayor Mamdani touches gets ruined, and the New York Mets are on the receiving end of the Mayor’s bad luck streak.
Mamdani and his radical wife made a stop at Citi Field on April 9, 2026. During the visit, the duo shared a hug with the team’s two mascots, Mr. and Mrs. Met, and shared the video on social media.
Since then, the Mets have gone 0-11.

The Mets franchise is also in the news for more than just their losing streak. Fans have noticed that for a few years now, there have been no named Jewish heritage nights at Citi Field despite other groups being hosted annually.
The last Jewish Heritage Night was held in September 2023, before the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel.
Prior to 2023, the Mets hosted Jewish Heritage Night intermittently for many years (dating back to at least the mid-2000s both at Shea Stadium and later Citi Field. It was not held every single season and was sometimes replaced or alternated with a “Celebrate Israel Night”. The last Celebrate Israel Night was in 2022.
After 2023, the Mets claimed they were moving away from many individual heritage nights for a broader “Celebration of Queens Culture” program.
While there is no Jewish Heritage night on the Mets calendar as of yet for 2026, the following groups are currently included:
