Meet The Mets, Yobbo!

The Post quips that this yobbo will be forced to root for the Mets now that he is banned from both the current and future versions of Yankee Stadium:

The troubled teen who jumped onto a net strung above more than 100 spectators at Yankee Stadium pleaded guilty yesterday to reckless endangerment, allowing him to avoid jail but barring him from the Stadium forever.

“You are permanently barred from entering the Stadium,” Judge Troy Webber told Scott Harper, 19, of Armonk, at Bronx Supreme Court.

That banishment goes for both the House that Ruth Built and the new Yankee Stadium, for which ground will be broken on Wednesday.

Harper had no comment as he left the courtroom with his lawyer and mother.

The Yankees, who have already barred Harper from the Stadium, had no comment. But prosecutors said team officials told the judge that the Yankees, as victims in the case, had asked that Harper be permanently expelled from the Stadium.

“Due to his conscious disregard of the safety of everyone at the Stadium, the ban is certainly appropriate,” said Barry Kluger, the chief Bronx assistant district attorney.

Harper pleaded guilty to the class A misdemeanor. He admitted that after having a few beers, he propelled himself over a railing and plunged about 40 feet into the netting behind home plate exactly one year ago yesterday during a game against the Chicago White Sox.

Backstory: Yobbo Watch.
