The New York Mets aren’t very good this year, and they lost again Wednesday night, 7-1 to the Milwaukee Brewers.
And Mr. Met has had enough.
The famous Mets mascot is known to live life on the edge, as evidenced by his vicious Valentine’s Day tweets at Noah Syndergaard. But he one-upped himself Wednesday night by giving the middle finger to a group of fans at Citi Field. (Warning: There is a middle finger in this video.)

Hang in there, Mets. It looks like it’s going to be a long season, although the person under the Mr. Met costume probably won’t be employed much longer.
UPDATE (Wednesday, May 31 at 11:30 p.m. ET): The Mets released a statement about the incident.
