This look like a a SCP wiki article
Surely this means that the hotel or the stadium will be providing a free shuttle bus service, right?
Right…?
Some lots around met life include a shuttle as part of the parking fee. It sucks, you pay over $100 for a parking spot 3 miles from the stadium and then have to watch a jets or Giants game.
Imagine paying $100 to drive a car there just to have to ride a bus anyway 💀
Henceforth, a minimum of an individual personal transport pod must be used at all times when leaving the comfort spaces! No facilities are made for unprotected movement around the surrounding area.

One of them links to a really good New York Times article from 2013 about this exact problem. You genuinely cannot comply with New Jersey traffic laws – reasonable ones that keep you safe – and walk to the stadium on foot.
Ok, I get that you can’t exactly walk there from that hotel but that’s not the whole story. They have pretty good public transport servicing MetLife.
I’ve been to a few sold out events at MetLife and I’ve taken the train every time and every time it was the right call. The train drops you off at the stadium and it’s one transfer in Secaucus to Penn station in NYC. Additionally there are lots of buses for folks to get in and out of the stadium.
It’s a hell of a lot better than my home stadium FedEX field outside Washington, DC. You can take the train to FedEx but it’s a 20-30 minute walk to a metro, I’ve seen folks get hit walking to the station. The only real option is to drive and pay 75$, sit in traffic and be miserable the entire time. I’d love to see a train station that you could safely walk to in DC. Hopefully the RFK redevelopment will be better.
Sure you can’t walk from a hotel but it’s not like they didn’t have public transportation options for MetLife.
That’s NJ AF
Jeez, they still haven’t fixed that shit? I saw a Chili Peppers concert there in like 2008, my date and I took NJ Transit or PATH out there from the city (I forget which) and ended up having to walk several miles along highways to get the the stadium. I wouldn’t give the Meadowlands my money ever again until they did something about that. The trains aren’t even that far away, they just haven’t connected them!!
