Mets fan celebrates too early in Yankee Stadium EPIC FAIL 'Put it in the books!' 

I feel like this is a perfect representation of every Mets season

2018 and this still puts a smile on my face. Lol! Put it in the books!

"PUT IT IN THE BOOKS! PUT IT IN THE..."

This play is when I instantly fell in love with Teixera, he was sprinting from first base to home as if he knew Castillo was going to drop it. Thats great baseball on Teixeras part

2023 & this is still my favorite video of all time

2020 & this is still the greatest video on RU-vid

I can't believe I still watch this! LOL

"it aint over til its over" -yogi berra, enough said

10th anniversary of this glorious moment

Legend has it that this guys foot is still stuck in his mouth to this day

Brett Gardner, CC Sabathia, Andy Pettitte, David Robertson, Mariano Rivera, Robinson Cano, Eduardo Nunez, Joba Chamberlain, Austin Romine, Jayson Nix, Lyle Overbay, Eduardo Nunez, Kevin Youkilis, Ichiro Suzuki, Adam Warren, Boone Logan, Hiroki Kuroda, Phil Hughes, Francisco Cervelli, Ivan Nova.

"Put it in the books! Put it in the books! yeahhh!" his reaction when he turned around and saw what actually happened had me fucking dying lol

0:07 man soul leaves his body

This is the greatest, most glorious fail by a baseball fan I've ever seen. Kudos Mets fans!

This is one of the greatest videos I’ve ever seen. Thank you

Man gotta love being a Yankees fan, moments like these priceless

Everytime I'm feeling down, I can always count on this video to put a smile on my face, and you could put that in the books!!!

In the words of Bill the Butcher, "whopsie daisy".

Silly Mets fan wins are for Yankees

Snatching the agony of defeat from the jaws of victory.

You can "Put This In Da Books"...Of all the "Castillo Drops Ball" clips, this ranks at the top because of that guy! I could watch it on a loop and NEVER get tired watching it!

Also in the article: "Except for Queens, New York City still is the home of the Bronx Bombers, who are favored in The Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn and Staten Island, too."

I didn’t even have to see the description to know this was the Castillo dropped ball. How a regular season game from 15 years ago still tortures me is beyond comprehension. I couldn’t imagine being there.

"PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!!" CLASSIC...

This sums up the Yankees-Mets "rivalry" perfectly, Yanks for life

The Moral of the Story "There is nothing automatic in Baseball, even a routine pop fly"

This is by far one of the greatest videos of Yankees vs Mets EVER!

God how I love when Mets fans get so overconfident only to have their hopes dashed.

0:07 Mets fan went from LET'S GO WE WON to WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED I HATE MYSELF

I was in the Bleachures when this happened in SECTION 203. The ending was electric and one of the main reasons I remember the 2009 World Championship so well

Honestly, this can't be watched enough times. A timeless classic encapsulating what it is to be a mets fan and what it is to be a YANKEES fan!

Almost 10 years ago crazy how everything looks different

This is the Election Day 2016 in a nutshell if you thing about it

This "subway series" was apparently an interleague REGULAR-SEASON game. It was June 12, 2009. This play started with 2 out in bottom of the 9th, and if that fly ball had been caught, the Mets would have won 8-7. Instead, the Yankees scored those 2 runs, thus the winning run scored with 2 out and the game ended that way.

This never gets old. Never. Go Yankees!

if any of you mets fans missed this classic game...YES shows its from time to time..as a Yankee CLassic...OWNED!

15 years ago, the Yankees beat the Mets 9-8 after Luis Castillo dropped a pop fly ball that blew Francisco Rodriguez's save and allowed the Yankees to score 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th inning. What a heartbreak for the Mets!

:08 could be one of the greatest moments ever captured on film

and.....i am still watching this 11 years later. I won a lunch bet on this game!

Only things mets fans get excited about these days, a good year or two, and when they beat a good team a couple times. Go Yanks

11 year anniversary today

Mets fans taking shit about the Yankees having 27 rings but they’re still stuck in 2015...

I want more. Can we get a camera close up on that guy's face as he slowly realizes what happened? Do we get a look of confusion and disbelief followed by a shout of anguish? I feel robbed of this. Maybe because his premature reaction was just so damn good.

this video will live on forever

He.. DROPPED THE BALL! HE DROPPED THE BALL! HERE COMES TEIXEIRA AND THE YANKEES WINNNNNNNN

i love this video; you see something new every time you watch it - namely a different met fan emotionally going from 60 to 0 in two seconds flat.

awww i feel so bad for that guy, im a huge yankee fan also

Any time I watch a game, I NEVER celebrate until the game is really over and I know we win. Lesson learned… Never celebrate a victory that never happened

Probably one of the worst days of my life

Put it in the books indeed. You can't find a worse way to lose a game than this.

was he saying "put it in the books" or "party in the bronx"?

NY Mutts

Yankees won that game and that Mets who celebrated early got SHUT DOWN 😂😂😂😂.

grown man in the front row started skipping up the stairs…thats why he dropped the ball.

He is still trying to put it in the books...

Gotta love them old cameras

In that fan's defense, he would be right 999 times out of 1,000 if that same situation was repeated. It just happened to be the 1,000th time right here. But it doesn't take away from the fact that this is still hilarious.

I thought he was saying boogie in the bronx, but put it in the books makes sense.

“PUT IT IN THE BOOK-“ Man found dead after Yankee Game

Should have shown more of that guy's reaction

They should play this version on the Yes Network

Great timing !!! Put it in the books .....that we lost again!!!

37 people put it in the books too early.

As a Chelsea FC (English Soccer) fan I have friends in NYC who follow both Mets and Yankees but I can't decide... Who should I really support???? And WHY?????

Let's go Mets baby. Shocking the world this year

That's what happens when typical Mets fans are being cocky. That was awesome.... big slap to his face

That Met fan should also watch Dominic Smith.

i will forever remember this i celebrated to early as well

I was at that game. Some douchebag Mets fan was trash talking. So glad Castillo was the MVP of that game.

@CF40 when was the last time the mets DIDN"T fail in the world series?

Is there anyway to LOVE the video? Like is just not enough.

Should have kept recording that Mets fan

I'm a mets fan and I laughed so hard I almost cried

It's even worse that he threw it to 2nd after

what disturbed me as a Mets fan is that Castillo played the next day. Understand folks, I never liked Castillo.

Too bad the camera wasn't on the "Put it in the books" guy the whole time. That would have been priceless.

as a lifelong pessimistic met fan and having flashbacks to the dropped routine fly ball by daniel murphy that april and the dropped pop up by delgado in may of that year, I did not celebrate one bit as that ball was in the air. From the moment arod made contact with the ball to the moment castillo dropped it i was literally saying nervously "Please dont drop it! Please dont drop it! Please dont drop it! Please dont drop it!" then it happened. at least i know better as a met fan than this guy is

"Put it in the books... Put it in the books!" Cue FAIL sound. haha Serves a Mets fan right :)

that Met fan became awfully quiet

One of my favorite videos of all time on RU-vid lmao

Yogi Berra was right...it ain’t over till it’s over...

27 WS now son,, as the mets have 2 and spent the last 24 years choking any chance for a 3rd!

LOL the camera guy should've had his reaction the entire time.

Ladies and gentlemen, the New York Mess.

"PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!??!!!!!!" DAHHHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Who’s here after the Padres

You will never know. Yeah the window is closed, but is it closed all the way? Nobody knows.

Back to back to back PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!!!!!!

I remember that day... I was at work. I was working the drive through, and the customer listening to the game on the radio(not loud enough for me to hear) was listening to the game. And for no reason whatsoever, he screams, "OH DAMMIT!!!"

19 people put it in the books too soon XD

Yes they did, thankfully but at the time of season this game was played they really hadn't been playing great baseball. My comment was made more out of frustration than anything else. Thankfully they started playing great baseball not too long after this and were by far the best team in the second half.

@WeTrustChrist Um, google this article too: Poll Finds Yankees Win Citys Popularity Contest - NY Times Over all, the Yankees have more fans than the Mets citywide by a 9-point margin, with 34 percent of New Yorkers in the city supporting the Yankees, 25 percent favoring the Mets, 34 percent saying they do not have an allegiance to either team, and 6 percent considering themselves fans of both teams.

Yup. That’s awkward. Not as awkward as Luis Castillo dropping the ball in the first place, but pretty close.

i wish the camera man would of taped that mets fan in front more i wanted to see his face when he looked at the big screen to see teh play

15 years, wow

how many world series rings do you have?

Mark texeira, nick swisher, Robinson cano, Raul ibanez, and CC sabathia... I can't name 5?

I look at this video at least once a year. LOL.

@WeTrustChrist Um, did you look at the article from Quinnipiac University "New Yorkers To Mayor: Take Me Out To The Ballgame" In an open-ended question, the 50 percent of adult New Yorkers who say they are "very interested" or "somewhat interested" in Major League Baseball were asked to pick their favorite team. The Yankees are number one, at 56 percent, with the Mets at 33 percent, followed by 3 percent for the Red Sox, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds.

Put it in the books, Put it in the...DOH!
