Here’s the truth: Citi Field’s laptop policy is less about control and more about vibe. They want you to be present, to cheer, to spill soda on your jeans. And you know what? That’s kind of beautiful. A baseball game is one of the last places where you’re supposed to be unreachable.
So leave the laptop at home, or stash it in a locker. Enjoy the fact that for three hours, the only screen you need is the big one in center field. Your boss will survive. But if you really need to work? Just do what I did: find a quiet corner near the food court, type furiously, and then sprint back to your seat. Trust me, the nachos are worth the hustle.
Now go forth, Mets fan, and unplug. Or at least, plug in far away from the action.
