Mathematically Alive - A Story of Fandom Joseph Coburn & Katherine Foronjy

This engaging documentary is for all New York Mets fans and for anyone who is a devoted fan of a sports team. Directors Coburn and Foronjy reveal the stories of a spectrum of Mets devotees and take us on their roller coaster ride of emotion through the 2006 playoffs.Mathematically Alive explores why Sports are such an integral part of American culture.What the affects are of following a team and, more importantly, why fans continue to invest so much emotion, time, and money into their team. They are the stories of any fan in America.

For some it's an escape from reality, for others it forms their identity. Their fanaticism, not too far off from your own or someone you know, makes for a fascinating window into an often unexamined part of everyday life - Sport fandom.

ATTN METS FANS: FAREWELL TO SHEA VIDEO

>7 days ago

Well Mets Fan,

 

You're moving from your 1st real home. We know you're sad, but your ballpark in flushing has housed some pretty incredible moments.

 

We want to hear about your most memorable days at Shea.  Maybe it was Buckner's goof. Tom Terrific's near perfection or Ventura's grand slam single. Or more memorable still was your 1st opening day.

 

We want to hear all the stories. Join us in creating Heckuva Day: Stories from Shea Stadium

 

"The Directors of Mathematically Alive: A Story of Fandom have just announced that they will be working on a tribute video to Shea Stadium called Heckuva Day: Stories from Shea Stadium. The best part of this video is that everyone makes the cut! According to the filmmakers, there will be no time constraints for this project so everyone who is interviewed will be included in the video. The directors said that they shot over 150 hours of video for Mathematically Alive and the worst part about it was making the cuts. They said they plan to use some of that extra video, but want Mets fans to meet up with them to talk about their best memories of Shea. Again, any fan who would like to be a part of this video should email the filmmakers to find out where and when they will be conducting the interviews.  

 

They plan to unveil the video at a “Mets Everything” event that they will host in September 2008. This event will be filled with Mets fans, bloggers, authors, etc.  The event is set to happen before the last game at Shea and will be a celebration of the wonderful memories that Shea has given to so many people. "

 

Hope you're all in and please feel free to pass this on to every Mets fan in the world. Check out the trailer on youtube http://youtube.com/watch?v=t1qaKb42pxI
