The 1962 Mets were so bad that on this day they celebrated in the locker room like they had won the super bowl, even though it was just their second victory in franchise history in their 14th try! It must have felt good to get that monkey off their back as the boys, led by Gil Hodges, let out monster screams of jubilation while holding their bats. Issued by the Associated Press and with a full paper caption on the back.
