Morning Briefing: OMG Sign Inducted Into Hall of Fame
Good morning, Mets fans!
The Mets’ iconic OMG sign was sent to Cooperstown as a donation to the Baseball Hall of Fame. It quickly became somewhat of a mascot for the Mets’ magical 2024 run, and was consistently used in celebrations. While the Mets didn’t quite meet their ultimate goal, it’ll now live forever in Cooperstown.
