Mr. Met may want to stick to walking on the tops of dugouts at Citi Field instead of concert stages from now on.

The Mets’ beloved mascot took a nasty spill off the stage at the Lumineers concert in Flushing on Friday night and the embarrassing video went viral.

It didn’t start well for Mr. Met, dressed in a white shirt and suspenders to fit the band’s look, as he first failed to catch a tambourine thrown to him by Lumineers lead singer Wesley Schultz.

He then walked toward the middle of the stage and fell as he stepped into the gap where the ramp into the crowd met the main platform.

He tumbled to the ground and you could no longer see his large baseball head for a moment.

Mr. Met then quickly rebounded, raising his hand holding the tambourine to let everyone know he was OK before pulling himself back on stage and waving to the Citi Field crowd one more time. 

“Don’t worry, I don’t oppheeliiia too bad,” Mr. Met posted to his official account on X in reference to the band’s “Ophelia” song. “Thanks for having me, @thelumineers !”

He even got some support from his main squeeze, Mrs. Met. 

“Love my man, on and off the stage. (Orange and Blue heart emojis),” Mr. Met posted to X.

It was a least a better night for Mr. Mets’ team as the Amazin’s rallied for an 8-3 win over the Royals in Kansas City on Friday night.

The Mets (54-41), who had just two hits in the first seven innings, scored seven runs over the eighth and ninth innings to rally from a 3-1 deficit and snap a two-game skid.

They got a slump-busting three-run double from Mark Vientos in the eighth, along with homers from Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor in the ninth to move a half-game back of the Phillies in the NL East.
