I’m a western US fan. Seen the team in SF, LA, Vegas (soon I hope), Denver, Arizona and KC over the years…. But never been to MetLife. Is it a decent stadium or is it crap? Looks good on TV……

Yes it sucks . Not a big improvement on the old building as far as watching the game goes .

Can I ask why its bad? Is the seating lousy, or maybe concessions bad? Or just a poor atmosphere? I remember when I was a kid I would see the Raiders in the old Oakland Alameda Coliseum. That place was a fucking horror show. The skywalk from BART ( over the freeway) to the stadium had razor wire on top. It felt like walking into prison…..

Actually the concession are not bad and the atmosphere inside the stadium is nice . The trouble is unless you have premium seats the game view is terrible. It’s a perfect place for a party not to watch a football game . Also what @TebowCan'tThrow said .

One of the worst stadiums to get out of after a game. Hate it.
Yes it’s bad
But that because of the fucked up access to the antiquated highway system in Nj
And let me say
It’s a breeze compared to it was getting out of Shea
My seats were lower corner end zone
The 5K per seat was an injustice
When I see the new stadiums that came after
Chargers
Raiders
Cowboy
They all look amazing
Of course the NJ construction costs were astronomical but half of that went to corruption
I liked Shea but was getting to old
MetLife was no big improvement to the Meadowlands ( I refuse to call it Giants stadium)

I couldn’t even get 1/3 of the ticket price if I tried to sell a ticket to the game
Fans are like
I’ll go to the game if you give me the tickets
Now they probably don’t even want that !!!!

So I asked myself what would make me go back.

1) no psl with. $ 40 tickets field level
2) $10 parking paid on entry
3) stadium in queens
4) box seats like yankee stadium
5) no paid preseason games
6) all 1:00 games except for one game a year
7) a dome
8) a box of tomatoes for throwing at the Jet coaches

That's it. Ain't going to happen

No, it doesn’t suck but that fact that the Jets are playing there. That’s what SUCKS!!!

They should and should’ve been back in New York years ago!

no character to the place besides being able to turn the stadium colors for Jets and Giants. Shea was a nightmare.........but loved the way the building rocked........literally

conversely down in Tampa the stadium is like a posh hotel on the interior.......really nice place to be at a game as long as you are not in the sun at the wrong hour of the day.
