Mets Owner Steve Cohen and Governor Kathy Hochul Spotted Together at Citi Field

Mets owner Steve Cohen and Governor Kathy Hochul were seen together at Citi Field last week watching the Amazins beat the Phillies. The sighting comes as Cohen partners with Seminole Hard Rock on a bid for state approval to open a casino next to the ballpark.

The Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz tweeted a photo with Hochul and Cohen, both sporting Mets caps, saying it was wonderful to see them all in support at Citi Field. However, one Albany insider said the meeting looked “terrible” for both Hochul and Cohen.

“Anything with casinos involves plenty of scrutiny, so why would anyone put themselves in such a position?” said the insider.
