Just wondering – in a bad season, is this the Jets Marketing Dept. trying to drum up interest in their games… and what does this mean about the difference between Jets and Giants fans....

“NJSEA [which runs operations at Giants Stadium and The Meadowlands complex] President and CEO George Zoffinger said that for the 2007 football season, eight women were tossed out of Giants Stadium for indecent exposure - seven of them from Jets games and one from a Giants game.”

Did the one tossed from the Giants game think she was at a Jets game?

Or was it that the Jets fans complain and the Giants fans don't?

The ONLY reason to got to a Jest game is for the outside chance to see a stray boobie or two.

FWIW, the Jets crowd is younger, rowdier, and drunker than the Giants fans. I've been to many games and can say from first hand experience that there are lots more trouble-makers at the Jet games. I think this may be due in part to the devoted, law-abiding season ticket holders who start selling their tickets when the season starts to go down the drain. We'll have to wait and see if the new stadium includes a courtroom to handle the biggest knuckleheads!

Brings to mind a pic I got in an email some time ago.

(Sorry - just not the same after the "I don't wanna be banned" modification.)

Before Kraft bought the Pats, Foxborough was real ugly. Falling-down drunkeness, vomitting in the aisles, fighting, streams of profanity, partial nudity, etc. And that was just me. I would never have even thought twice about bringing my wife or kids to a game. The first season after he bought the team he put a zero-tolerance policy into effect where if you were removed from your seat by security or the police, escorted from the stadium, arrested in the parking lots, essentially anything that was enough to get the attention of the security or police officer you had your season tickets taken away permanently. Many people sought to test him on it, many people lost their seats.

With 60K+ people on the waiting list, they have no problem sliding someone else in. And the policy holds true today and applies to the season ticket holder's seats, regardless of whether they are the ones committing the infractions or whether it's someone they gave the tix to. Police patrols in the tailgating lots are common and frequent. That's not to say opposing fans don't get their fair share of crap, but I'd be surprised if anyone ever felt their health and well-being were in danger.

All that said, I routinely bring my wife and/or a kid to the games now. In fact it's my kid who's the (clean) loudmouth and riling up our neighbors.
