New York Mets mascot Mr. Met falls off the stage during The Lumineers' concert
All eyes were on Mr. Met's not-so-gracious fall at Citi Field in New York during The Lumineers concert last week, and now the viral moment can be relived from a new angle.
The New York Mets mascot made a surprise appearance at the alternative folk band's show on July 11 while playing the tambourine. When lead vocalist Wesley Schultz sat by the piano and sang the group's 2016 hit "Ophelia," Mr. Met promptly hit the floor.
Video shows the mascot misstep off the stage and quickly tumble down. However, he took the brief embarrassment like a champ, quickly raising his tambourine to show he's okay and climbing back onto the stage with a little support.
The clip garnered more than 5 million views on X, arguably bringing more euphoria than the concert itself.
"Rough night for Mr. Met at the Lumineers concert," one X user wrote.
Another user pointed out that the accidental fall is nowhere near as mortifying as the awkward moment at a Coldplay concert on July 16. A couple quickly tried to dodge the spotlight when a Jumbotron put them in the spotlight. Both caught off guard, the woman is seen quickly turning her back away, while the man ducks out of view faster than Mr. Met after a wrong step.
"Mr. Met is just somewhere, thanking god he's had the second most embarrassing concert moment of the week now," a user wrote.

Mr. and Mrs. Met perform during the sixth inning of the game between the New York Mets and the Miami Marlins at Citi Field on April 8, 2025.
Mr. Met is one of the official mascots for MLB's New York Mets.
The mysterious baseball-headed figure initially appeared in cartoons printed on the team's publications before becoming a mascot at Shea Stadium in Queens, New York, in 1964, according to the MLB.
He's not alone as he met his soulmate and co-mascot Lady Met that same decade. The pair married in the mid-1970s and have harmoniously lived as MLB royalty ever since.
