    Was here for the Madrid vs Roma game. Great stadium, and love the ambiance. Parking can be an issue. Staff were very helpful n friend except for one I ran into while at the VIP suites! She was harsh!

    Catch a Giants or Jets game at this beautiful stadium in the fall before it gets too cold out. If you're attending a winter game, splurge and get club seats, where you'll be able to watch from inside.

    Opened on April 10th, 2010. The stadium's color-change technology was inspired by Munich's Allianz Arena.

    Amazing views, food, parking, escalators, very nice new bright stadium. Only negative is I'm a regular large American male and my shoulders are too big to be comfortable in the seats. Huge screens!

    Pro tip: take meadowland bound train from secaucus, leave before your event ends to get back on train as it gets crowded. They have Chase ATM's. Cards accepted. Sit in lower levels for less voice echo

    Plan ahead - beer sales stop at the start, not the end, of the third quarter.

    The stadium was built in the NJ Meadowlands wetlands with tons of parking. Check out the lot before a Jets/Giants game & you will see banquet-style food with crazy partying that turns into wild nights

    Do not bring anything with you beside phone and wallet, only clutch purses for women, anything bigger and you'll have to check it in..ridic!

    Unless it is a game day, coming here can be a bit of a hassle. I am a New Yorker and this is a "New York" venue. I expect a public transport availability. (There are many non sporting events here)

    Just to watch the families and friends hanging around the parking was amazing, and the stadium has a huge structure. Just come with your passport and no bags.

    If you looked up "Sports Stadium" in the dictionary, a photo of MetLife Stadium would appear. Or generic stadium. Or Could be anywhere and home to anyone. #5hoursoftrafficgettingthere Just go to a bar

    On Feb 2, 2014. Super Bowl XLVIII took place for the 1st time here. Seattle Seahawks defeated Denver Broncos 43 - 8, and win their first Super Bowl in franchise history; R. Wilson shortest & 2nd Year.

    Loved watching the game. Food and drink options galore! If you are not from the states bring your passport as they don't accept foreign drivers licenses as ID

    Bon Jovi and this stadium were made for each other, Fantastic and very well organised show. lots of stewards, lots of choice of food and several waiting trains to get everyone home after the show.

    Inside the stadium it was amazing, however the transportation option for a 83000 seater stadium was terrible.. I ended up spending more than 6 hrs and a fortune to come and get out

    Awesome venue when concert in the round BUT parking is a sh*t show. Circled the parking lot on access road for 2 hours just to pay $40 to park. No reason!!

    $25 to park. You've got to be kidding me. Nothing is worth that. Car pool if you must. Check if the event will be setting off fire works.... Monster truck night ended in smoke burning eyes and lungs

    Home of the Jets and Giants! Lots of food and drink options inside, but prices are high. ($11-$13 for a beer, $5 for bottles water).

    The structure is aesthetically boring, the WiFi has improved, but the food is completely inedible. Serves its utilitarian function of hosting two football teams and other large events.

    Get to the lot by 9:30 a.m. For 1:00 p.m. Games. If you show up late and start clogging the lot. I will start washing your windshield, Bronx style. Tips are encouraged.

    No mass transit, poor traffic management. Food vendor “Aramark” better known for hospitals and vending machines (rock-bottom quality). Understaffed—40 minute wait at security entrances and “VIP” bars

    Turning “Giants Stadium” into “Jets Stadium” ain’t easy. It takes two crews of four about 18 hours to switch out the end zone, lighting, billboards, and more. You get exhausted just thinking about it.

    Take the train. It's not that effective with at least 1 transfer.....but better than any alternative. It's the only serious advantage/upgrade from the orginal.

    It’s a big stadium, that hosts 2 non-conference NFL teams, it doesn’t feel like it’s really home to the Jets, really just the Giants. 50 yard club is ok. Decent vendors.

    Make sure you get you drinks before half-time. The bar closes then. The best food is the earliest food - don't people watch, get in there with your plate

    Such a bad stadium. Find the Global Pies stand on floor 100, its the only redeeming feature.

    Make sure you buy your parking pass on vivid seats or StubHub before arriving because they’re not accepting payments at the parking gates.

    If sitting in an upper deck, try to get a lift on one of the elevators. It is quite a maze-like hassle trying to walk to the upper levels.

    Great stadium. Love the Verizon deck that charges your phone during halftime. Jets and Giants crowds are completely different so know which team you are rooting for before you go.
