Casey Stengel welcomes fans to new Shea Stadium

1962_CASEY_STENGEL_SI_COVER_3-5-1962_LARGER_PHOTO_.jpgCheck out this fantastic footage from our friends at Reel Sports Fan of the building of Shea Stadium and words of wisdom from Casey Stengel on the joys of escalators.

Casey also touts Shea's food and beverage options, and adds, "You'll never get sick when you're watching the Mets this summer."

Clearly, he never anticipated the team's 2008 bullpen.

(It was nice seeing the real Casey after watching the fake Casey run onto the Yankee Stadium outfield Sunday night.)
