Wrong. People would`ve packed the pubs/taverns/bars and retaurants all over that city. There would have been tailgating as well on BOTH sides of the Hudson if fans would`ve chosen to go that route. Why do people keep saying if there was a WSS there would`ve been no tailgating? They had land set aside on both sides just for tailgating. Plus why tailgate EVERY single game anyway? The only reason tailgating is so huge at Giants Stadium is because there ain`t F-All to do anything else. No worthy facilties to eat and drink anywhere within walking distance to that craphole.

correct. The papers use to show "No-Shows" but no longer do for some strange reason. Do the Jets & Giants have that much pull with the papers that they will no longer show the sad state of their teams fans NOT showing up for the games? Put all ticket phases in the paper(tickets sold, actual attendance and actual no-shows). With all this technology we have we should be able to know everything about tickets. How many people in this area own tickets, who they sell to(Jets or opposing fans), how much they sold them for, if they actually went or not, etc...
