What is the story about?

New York City actually doesn’t have its own proper football stadium. That honor goes to East Rutherford, New Jersey, which is home to MetLife Stadium, where our football teams, the New York Jets and the New York Giants, play. It’s also been home to major concerts (Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar) and other sporting events, like the forthcoming World Cup 2026. (It’s actually being “renamed” the New York New Jersey Stadium for the tournament.)

For dining, MetLife’s stadium concessions are par for the course: lots of chicken tenders, hot dogs, loaded fries, sandwiches, burgers, etc. Highlights include:
