Rickroll

The Mets rickroll was a success!!

News Day posted an article last night after the Mets Home Game opener.

As per my last post, Digg users united to all vote for Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley and according to this article it received over 5 million votes.

After a crowd of boos the Mets management decided despite the song winning the poll, they are not going to use it as their 8th inning sing a-long after all.

But hey that is the last home game opener for the Mets at Shae Stadium ever, so no better time to be rickrolled.

Rickroll the Mets

by Brian Carl on April 8, 2008

People on Digg are rallying to Rickroll the Mets.

I find this hillarious. The mets are doing a vote for the 8th inning sing-a-long and they are trying to get people to write in “Never Gonna Give You Up – Rick Astley”.

I first heard about this campaign on BOL, but I didn’t look it up until now. I sure hope it works. I will get such a kick out of this at the next Mets game I go to if it plays. I am sure it won’t happen, but never underestimate the power of nerds, especially Nerds in Numbers!
