Default Shea Stadium Bleacher Bench

Still considering this a work in progress....
The bleacher is from Shea Stadium that I picked up at a card show in NY.
Picked up the legs online....
The bats are MLB game used and it turns out that bats are much harder to cut than I anticipated.

Not in love with it and not sure where I am going with it from here....any suggestions or examples would be cool.

James - I grew up a Met fan and went to 100s of games. Shea didn't have a bleacher section. Where exactly did these come from? There was a picnic area in the last few years but those were picnic tables I believe. I have actual seats from Shea and they look nothing like these.

Steve-

Shea definitely had bleacher seating in the late 2000s over in the picnic area.

I picked it up at the Long Island show that was the weekend before the National this year for $30. I believe that Shea Stadium items were pretty much all he had for sale as well. There are 2 hologram stickers from MLB on it as well for whatever those are worth.

That’s a good catch though and I haven’t been able to find what year it was that the bleachers were put in Shea.

I am a big fan of stadium seats but a lot of the ones I see don’t get much use. My goal with this bleacher was that it would be something people actually sit on. Maybe on the back patio.

Thanks. You are correct. Forgot that pretty late addition and never ever sat there. Cool.

Miss old Shea a lot. It was a bit of a dump but it was my dump. Sorry I didn't buy more pieces of Shea when the Mets were selling it all off.
