Back before RDM was ever a thought. Back when Metsblog was just a blog run by some guy named Matt. Many who wanted to gather to talk Mets during a Mets game used to go into an irc chat called Hotfoot Bleachers that was part of The HotFoot Blog run by Anthony De Rosa. People like Ceetar, Cver, TheJules and DantheManMurphy could often be found there. The inspiration behind RDM’s Dugout was to have a place like HotFoot Bleachers to chat during games.
So after so many years of conversations you can imagine how happy all of us that were chatting in the Dugout during last night’s Mets game were when we found out that this past Sunday’s Banner Day Winner was the one and only DanTheManMurphy aka Stephanie Giangrande of Bensonhurst.
Congrats again DantheManMurphy from all of us here at RDM on a great job in winning the Mets 50th Anniversary Banner Day.

Hah. I don’t remember the names I used previously, but used dantheman the day I heard a guy named Daniel Murphy would be joining the big club. Didn’t even see him play yet at that point, just liked the kid’s name. Lol

Congrats Stephanie and well done!
Little did I know when I was voting on line between the top three banners and voted for this one that it was yours.
I’ll never forget that game and the Piazza HR.
Enjoy your ST trip!
