Okay, so I’ve been seeing a lot of this “ny mets blue” stuff popping up, and honestly, I was kinda clueless. I mean, I know the Mets, I know blue, but put them together like that? It felt like a secret code or something. So, I decided to do a little digging, a little experimenting, and see what all the fuss was about.
First, I just straight-up Googled it. You know, the usual. Typed in “ny mets blue” and…bam! A whole bunch of images, mostly of, well, Mets stuff in blue. Jerseys, hats, logos, you name it. It seemed pretty straightforward, but I wanted to go a bit deeper.
Trying to Get the “Feel”
I started looking at the different shades of blue. It wasn’t just any blue, you know? It’s a specific kind of blue. Kind of a bright, royal blue. I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at different color codes, hex codes…all that stuff. I even tried matching it up with some paint chips I had lying around (don’t ask).
- Royal Blue seemed close.
- Cobalt Blue was a bit too dark.
- Cerulean was way too light.
Then, I figured, why not try to make something with this “ny mets blue”? I messed around a bit. Since I couldn’t get the exact same, I made sure to note it down, I need to get back to it and make the colors perfect. But, you know, first try!
Honestly, the whole thing was a fun little exercise. I went in knowing nothing, and I came out with…well, still not a ton of concrete knowledge, but a better appreciation for the specific shade of blue that the Mets use. And hey, I got to mess around with colors, which is always a good time. It’s amazing what you can find when you just start poking around and trying things out. Maybe next time I’ll try the “ny mets orange,” or maybe I’ll try something different.
