Mets RickRolled... hold on...

Good news: We have successfully Rickrolled the Mets! Astley song atop poll!

Stop dancing...
Mets are going to let you down, run around, and desert you.

They're going for in-stadium runoff instead.

Rather than commit to DEMOCRACY - and THEIR OWN RULES they have decided that they will not listen to the popular vote since "the new eighth-inning tune since it probably doesn’t reflect the fan base’s wishes," the Mets will play the top six selections once apiece during the first six games of their home stand. The one that draws the largest crowd response will stick.

The other songs that made the cut, in descending order: Livin’ on a Prayer, Bon Jovi; I’m a Believer, The Monkees; Movin’ Out, Billy Joel; Sweet Caroline, Neil Diamond; and Build Me Up Buttercup, The Foundations.

The Mets suggested RickRoll winning didn’t necessarily result in the runoff, saying the contest rules stipulated Internet voters would “help decide” the outcome.

• This story will be re-run after Hillary Clinton wins the nomination using the exact same language about the delegate count, and how the SuperDelegates fold under her pressure.
