July 1st. Every damn year we got to remind the world that the New York Mets are STILL paying Bobby Bonilla. In a way this is bittersweet. Every year it’s a reminder that Bobby Bonilla gets paid but also this year 9 which means we only have 15 years left of Bobby Bonilla day. Also a quick shout out to Bobby’s agent for signing one of the best deals of all time.
Happy Bobby Bonilla Day! If you were to to fly the same path the 3B/OF took in his career, here's the itinerary w/ the cheapest flights selected:
CHW-PIT-NYM-BAL-FLA-LAD-NYM-ATL-STL
Total: $1,582
With Bonilla's annual paycheck of $1,193,248.20, he can book that trip 754 times. pic.twitter.com/H6sUrwcJbG
