The Mets rickroll was a success!!

by Brian Carl on April 9, 2008

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.

Here is the video

All right Jesse we know its you. Don’t pretend to be Olga so others will think King of the Hill and Halo are cool.

But his next gen laptops are pretty crazy. Makes you wonder if that will ever be the norm.

real olga! April 14, 2008 at 12:10 pm

Wow…instead of coming up with valid arguments for King of the Hill/Halo…my own boyfriend resorts to this…

also..im sure carter will make some comment about how there is no valid argument for koth/halo

Jesse…be warned!

carter April 14, 2008 at 12:24 pm

she’s right. there isn’t.

carter April 14, 2008 at 12:24 pm

and calling it koth is even worse.

Brian Carl April 15, 2008 at 10:19 am

OMG, you generally you only abbreviate things if you are going to say them often. Jesse is the only person I’ve even heard talk about King of the Hill in the last 5 years, so I am going to say that it does not deserve an abbreviation.

If anything I would approve KOTHS(ucks).

Or if you want to get really technical, you can just abbreviate that to Jesse Vincent Sucks or Shaw Sucks if your one for alliteration. Both pretty much come to the same point.
