Juan Soto is having a moment.

At the time of publication, the 27-year-old phenom has cobbled together an impressive stat line highlighted by 17 home runs, 38 RBIs, six stolen bases and a .301 average.

And, on Thursday, June 25, the New York Mets will honor their star left fielder by giving away Childish Bambino Juan Soto Baseball Card bobbleheads to the first 18,000 fans before their 7:10 game at Citi Field against the Chicago Cubs.

If you’d like to snag one, last-minute tickets to the weekday contest in Flushing are still available.

Better yet, they’re crazy cheap.

Based on our findings, some seats are going for as low as $13 including fees on SeatGeek.

Yes, you read that right. $13 for a ballgame and a bobblehead.

Not too shabby, especially in 2026.

Fans hoping to get closer to the action can grab tickets in the 100-level starting at $31 including fees.

Prior to the Soto bobblehead giveaway, the Mets will be giving away freebies on Monday through Wednesday in the first three games of the four-game series with Pete Crowe-Armstrong’s Cubbies.

On Monday, June 22, 15,000 Amazins’ faithful can scoop up Mets purses prior to game time.

Then, come Tuesday, June 23, the first 15,000 “ya gotta believers” are entitled to sleek Mets chain necklaces.

Finally, the first 15,000 folks who enter the gates in Flushing on Wednesday, June 24 will have the option to take home their very own Marcus Semien replica jersey with the second baseman’s number 10 embroidered on the front and back.

The most beautiful part of it all? Tickets are under $15 for all three of these games as well.

But wait! There’s more!

In the off chance you haven’t been to Citi Field this season, we’d recommend you hit the ballpark on an empty stomach.

New vendors like Adam Richman’s Burger Hall of Fame, Chef Kwame’s Patty Palace, Pat LaFrieda’s Chop House, Seoul Bird and Mookie Wilson’s Legacy Catering all offer mouth-watering delicacies you absolutely won’t want to miss.

Plus, of course, you’ll get to see Soto play (along with new stars Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing), too, of course.

So, get on the 7 and we’ll see you in Flushing all this week.
