I like how this is all on Woody, as though this isn't true for every other Super and it's a stadium that is shared with the Giants.

this will be an epic fail.

They probably stick you in the middle of Route 3 with cones and a couple of flags directing traffic... DURING the game.

But I get to keep the uniform!

Sounds like a great opportunity. You volunteer your time to help an organization hurting for cash like the National Football League. It's always important to help those who need it most. And there are no benefits to you.

Sounds like a win/win situation!

I get to watch the Giants win another SB next season in person? Awesome!

hehehe, I`m gettin the fock outta here that week if I can. I work less than a 1/2 mile away from that dump and my job will be screwed up for at least those 2 weeks, possibly more. I don`t want the game played here even if the stadium was enclosed. The area is gonna be a mess. I hope the weather is so bad they actually move the game somewhere else. LOL

cold weather may cancel the halftime show.

Well the NFL is a non-profit organization and only made 9 billion dollars in revenue last year and is tax exempt like all the other professional football leagues

You may not know it, but the National Football League is a nonprofit organization. It may seem absurd that a collection of teams that generated at least $9 billion in revenue last season would be given tax-exempt status, but the NFL is technically classified as a 501(c)6 organization. Here’s how the IRS describes 501(c)6 tax-exempt status:

Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code provides for the exemption of business leagues, chambers of commerce, real estate boards, boards of trade and professional football leagues, which are not organized for profit and no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

[Inspector Oofus]

The halftime shows usually suck so they're the least important part of the festivities lol! usually the casual non football fans are the ones who look forward to the show anyway lol but if they wanted to please those people they could have the halftime show at the izod center and live-feed it over the jumbotrons.

Woody doesn't have the power to sweeten the deal? Maybe autographed footballs or jerseys for fans supporting (and paying for) his pretty new stadium?

STFU! Just because the little women is screaming at you again is no reason to come here and attack people to make you feel like you have a d!ck again.
