The Mets issued a public apology Wednesday night after Mr. Met was caught on video giving the finger to a fan. The incident joins a long list of Amazin’ly humiliating moments in Mets history. Here are some of the more notable incidents:
— In May 1975, Cleon Jones gets arrested in St. Petersburg, Fla., at 5:30 a.m. sleeping naked in a station wagon with a nude woman asleep beside him. Both are charged with indecent exposure, and the out-of-work waitress also is charged with possession of a marijuana cigarette and possessing narcotics implements.
— During their World Series-winning 1986 season, Tim Teufel, Ron Darling, Bobby Ojeda and Rick Aguilera get into a altercation with Houston police at 2 a.
