Start Off Your Opening Day Right With The Video That Introduced Us All To Frank The Tank Fleming

I can’t believe it’s only been one Baseball Year since Frank The Tank stormed into our lives. I feel like I’ve been internet buddies and seeing his breakfast/lunch/dinner choices on Twitter for a decade now. Usually people in the Tri-State Area hate everything about mass transit. The delays. The yearly fare hikes. The fact that a twig on the tracks can cripple an entire line that transports millions of people daily. But I thank God every day that the INCOMPETENT New Jersey Transit dragged its feet and supplied Tank with the ammunition needed for that epic video on that fateful Opening Day. What came next was nothing short of extraordinary. The media tour, the birth of Frankie Midnight, the vlogs, Tank Cooks, and of course Frank’s showdown with ARod.

So a Happy Opening Day to everybody, especially Frank The Tank. I’m sorry the Mets don’t release the balloons anymore during the annual Rite of Spring. But sitting 1st Row on Opening Day with a human spark plug is a pretty decent upgrade than being jerked around the New Jersey Transit.

Have yourself a day, Frank. And Lets Go Mets.
