Goodbye Shea Stadium and hello Citi Field. The New York Mets are finally getting a new stadium, and GoTickets.com will be your best source for Citi Field tickets. The $610-million facility is scheduled to open in time for the 2009 baseball season, and although the history and memories of Shea will be missed, it's about time that the Mets got a new home, especially considering the New York Yankees are getting their own new stadium.

With a facade that will pay tribute to the old Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, the 42,500-seat Citi Field will be a big improvement over Shea. A New York Mets ticket will now come with more legroom, wider seats and bigger concourse areas. Citi Field will feature four restaurants, including the huge Sterling Club Lounge with a capacity of 1,600, along with a total of 54 luxury suites. No matter what Citi Field seats you want, it's a safe bet that GoTickets.com will have the right New York Mets tickets for you.

Other improvements for Citi Field include a Fan Fest family area, a much better video and sound system compared to Shea, and better sightlines because this will be a baseball-only stadium (Shea was designed with football in mind as well). You can bet that Citi Field opening day tickets are going to be hard to find, but GoTickets.com will have a big selection to pick from, along with Mets tickets for every game at Citi Field. So rely on GoTickets.com for your Shea Stadium tickets until the venerable stadium sees its last pitch, and then come back to GoTickets.com for your Citi Field tickets and New York Mets baseball tickets in 2009.
