Met life finally has new turf. Unfortunately not grass but hopefully the new surface will cut down on noncontact injuries that have plagued players on that field.
I never liked the stadium's location. Even back in the old days 70s, when traffic was a fraction of what it is now.I hate saying this because Metlife isn't that old, but I wish the new turf was attached to a new stadium. I mean how did we manage such a crappy stadium situation. The team could very well play out of Philly they're so far from the stadium.
I think they are.I never liked the stadium's location. Even back in the old days 70s, when traffic was a fraction of what it is now.
Biggest problems I had with this new park is that we're once again sharing it with the Giants, and that they did not install a retractable roof. Just dumb. Are fans still calling the new place "The A/C Unit"? lol
I KNEW IT.
We didI never liked the stadium's location
My grandmother lived in Rego Park. So gameday would be going to my grandmother's, picking up hoagies, going to the game, back to my grandmother's for dinner, going home to NJ.We did
After traveling the decade of the 70s thru
80 - Harlem river drive - triboro bridge - Astoria blvd - stadium
It was a pleasure to not have to leave so early or get home so late for macs and gravy
Being from north Jersey it was great
Location anyway- the stadium and the team still sucked

What’s wrong with pizza threads?I walked to Main St. Flushing ,but took the subway from there.
Remember the pizza place diagonally across from the Department store (with the clock)?
It was the best pizza I have ever eaten.
I hear it's moved, and I don't know where it went. But I'd drive from Connecticut to get a slice.(sorry, I don't want to make this another pizza thread, but I'm serious.)

Most jet games, you can leave after the first drive 3 and out so the subway should be goodForget the subway after the game unless you leave 5 minutes before the end of the game.
These days, I have to drive 3 hours for good pizza. So I can relate.I walked to Main St. Flushing ,but took the subway from there.

The pictures you folks post are larger than an actual slice. They take up too much room on the JFU server.What’s wrong with pizza threads?
