There are different forms of loyalty, friend. You think loyalty is "what can the Jets do for me" whereas I see loyalty as "as a fan what can I do to support the Jets". Facepaint in mom's basement doesn't pay the bills. PSL's and season tickets do. Season ticket holders built MetLife Stadium, we built Florham Park, we signed Adam Gase, we attracted Joe Douglas, and therefore we deserve special perks now and then like OTA on-field access. Loyal fans open their wallets, compensate the team, and help ensure future success. Basement pretzel people just whine on the internet about free stuff they think they're entitled to.

I agree. I would sit in the bleachers and watch them go down to the fence to shake the players hands. I miss that. Haven't been to the new venue yet.

fltflo Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Yes, architecture comes into play. I've been fortunate to attend OTA's or TC practices at Florham Park for the last 5 years and it's different than Hofstra. First off, it's much bigger, so there is more dead space between the fence and the fields, probably about 15 yards of grass. Next, they built three fields side-by-side with a big tree in between two of them, so the middle field has no fans anywhere near the players except the endzones where they never are. So unlike Hofstra which had a fence running around three sides of the primary practice field where fans could get really close, Florham Park is built differently. Fans on the fence really can only see endzone stuff and not much happens there. On the other hand, when you are invited, ah, whole different world, better than Hofstra was. Because you're on a set of short bleachers, only about 50 in attendance, under a hospitality awning, and about 10 feet away from the players on the sidelines. I was just there last month, I could hear them chatting, the works. Attending an open practice at Florham Park is a bit of a downer if you're along the fence, it's really a waste of time. If you're in the bleachers with 200 others its much better. But it's the smaller 50 person VIP events that are really special. I was at one once where it rained so they brought us all to the indoor facility, very cool. SAR INeed one say more, Money, exclusivity,What you know and who you know.

The blue-collar Jets fan was a cheap drunk who spend no money on tickets, blasted bad 80s music, got wasted at breakfast, pissed on luxury cars, stumbled to his seat ten minutes into the first quarter, cursed in front of kids, burped and farted on season ticket holders, got up all game to drink and piss some more, and left his seat five minutes into the fourth quarter so he could drink some more and piss some more and DUI'd all the way to Long Island.

joewilly12 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hofsra training camp is like the Gate D perverts who cheered on women exposing themselves or spitting on someone chasing coins, its gone but not forgotten.

If thats what you and your dad consider appropriate behavior thats fine. I took my son to his first NY Jets game at age 4 we still attend games today. throughout his teenage years I never ever mentioned Gate D and what went on there or ever went there at halftime. Some who think they are high and might today did. We also enjoyed Hofsra as a family and had good times there way better than Florham Park on its best day.
