SAR I Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 That's very cool, didn't know that existed. Unfortunately, the Jets were the 1968 World Champions, I'm sure the Kansas City Chiefs appreciate the people of Peekskill giving them kudos though.

predator_05 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 A pilgrimage that all Jets fans must embark on at least once in their life. Well done brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Thats a good point, wonder who made that sign?...I always thought of them as '68/'69 Champs but I wonder what would be correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisYearsModel Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 The Super Bowl was in 1969. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscrazey Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 It was the 1968 season though, just like this is the 2015 season even though the postseason occurs in 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexorcism Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Typical Jets, Sar, you are correct, we are the '68 World Champs but the sign says '69...Oh well...Heres a Chiefs 69 Champs ring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flushing Roots Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 this afternoon and actually felt the presence of Jets' ghosts of the 60's....What an amazing place. You would think after 46 years the Jets would get that changed. SAR can't be the first one to recognize that. Guess they didn't make enough on the PSLs.

SAR I Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 See we win a Super Bowl and somebody finds something to bitch about. It's the opposite. Our crowning achievement should not be disrespected in such a manner. We need the biplane guys to right this wrong, need a petition. SAR I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 1968 season actual Super Bowl took place in 1969 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR I Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 1968 season actual Super Bowl took place in 1969 Good lord, who doesn't know that? The point is that the Championship Game is played in January but the Season is what took place the months prior and that's what's immortalized. You know this. The Peekskill sign is wrong. It should be corrected. It's a SOJ moment, one that I wish I didn't know existed. SAR I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32EBoozer Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 .I tweeted the Jets about it, We'll see what they say: Looking at that sign.... changing the "9" to an "8" would be pretty simple. Making it look good that's another story with all the "neaderthals" on this message board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flushing Roots Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 All the Jets need to do is pay a buck and a half to someone skilled and experienced in carpentry and design and get it done. I'm sure the town of Peekskill would allow it. If it were my franchise/business I would get that corrected today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
