The Birth of a Legend.

Few things give us bigger headaches than our favorite sports teams. In 2017, Mets super-fan Frank Fleming was having a particularly terrible sports headache…and New Jersey Transit was to blame.

Frank had attended every single Mets home opener for over 20 years, but found himself missing his favorite day of the year due to train delays. A local news crew interviewing frustrated commuters happened to check in with Frank, and the passion of his tirade broke through to a national audience.

We had Excedrin jump in to save the day, offering Frank free tickets to the Mets game the following day, and a limo ride to make sure New Jersey Transit couldn’t foil his plans yet again.

This wasn’t the last we heard from Frank however, his incredible enthusiasm captured the attention of Barstool Sports, where Frank the Tank now has millions of fans.
