I've been to the Metropolitan Musem of Art quite a few times.. each time for free. I could never bring myself to pay to go to this place. It's highly overrated and they don't even possess any of the world's coolest or unique pieces of art. Save your money and go to the Guggenheim or leave the area for once and go to a real art museum. If you must go, go on a Friday afternoon after 4pm when it's free but beware of the lines to get in!
