Snooki is a lifelong Mets supporter, but not every diehard New York fan embraced her as one of their own when the Jersey Shore star popped by Citi Field.
On Monday, a bumped-up Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi, along with fiancé Jionni LaValle, stopped by the NY Mets stadium, where she swung bats on the grass, cozied up to the big league ballplayers in the dugout and even flashed a smile on the scoreboard.
But the MTV party gal, decked out in a Mets tee and cap, wasn’t a favorite of everyone in the stands. When Snooki was shown on the jumbo board, a wave of booing washed over the Citi Field crowd.
Did that get Snooki down in the dumps?
No way! The pint-sized pregnant Jersey Shore star still gushed about her day at Citi Field — and growing up a Mets fanatic.
“I really, really loved the Mets and was obsessed in the early 2000s when we had (Bobby) Valentine," Snooki said, according to ESPN. "So I loved (John) Franco and Robin Ventura. All of them. I was, like, obsessed.”
And despite the team’s rough record — they tumbled to a devastating 8-2 defeat to the Washington Nationals on Monday — Snooki will always be cheering for the Mets.
"I always think they have a chance," Snooki said. "I feel like that's the Mets fans — they always believe that they're going to turn it around and do good. And sometimes they don't. But I'll still be a Mets fan no matter what.”
Although a few of the MLB fans didn’t give Snooki such a warm welcome, third baseman David Wright was happy to greet Snooks and her baby daddy.
“Hey, she’s a lifelong Mets fan,” Wright said, admitting he’s seen the Jersey Shore juggernaut a couple of times.
