Victory Journal once again recruited Brooklyn-based artist James Bagden to direct, illustrate and animate a new video that centers upon the unruly post-game celebration of the 1986 New York Mets. After nabbing the National League pennant in a nerve-wracking 15-inning game against the Houston Astros, the Mets hopped on a DC-10 Ozark Airlines plane headed for New York and needless to say, havoc was wreaked. Veterans and rookies alike popped champagne, snorted cocaine, engaged in a wild meat fight and even players’ wives were getting in on the debauchery. The nine-minute video also features voiceovers from the ‘86 Amazins themselves, including Lenny Dykstra, Dwight Gooden, Kevin Mitchell and Darryl Strawberry.

Watch the crazy animated clip above and let us know your thoughts.
