If you haven't done your taxes by April 15th and have tickets to Shea Stadium, the responsible thing to do would be to stay home and do your taxes.
But if you waited this long, what the heck...just go to the game.
And the Mets will make it easy for you. they are providing accountants at Shea so you can prepare your returns while watching the Brewers (4/12 & 4/13) and the Nationals (4/15) take on the boys in blue and orange.
If the accountants are really smart, they will set up their tables near the ridiculously long bathroom lines.
Here are the details, from the recordonline.com:
POUGHKEEPSIE — For the third year in a row, the
