Best way to get to the Meadowlands from CT?

[steves850]

I am going to be attending my (long awaiting) first Jets game, its only a pre-season game but quite frankly tickets aren't affordable to the average fan. Its a little birthday gift to myself. 8/14/2009 Friday night game, I was wondering if anyone had any advice on the best way to get there from Mid-CT? Much appreciated Thanks. And... :pats_suck:

By Car
1. From the George Washington Bridge

Take Route 3 West and follow the signs to the Sports Complex and Racetrack.

3. Traveling North on the New Jersey Turnpike
Follow the Western Spur (Sports Complex to Exit 16W), which provides direct access to Sports Complex parking areas. If congested, use eastern spur (Lincoln Tunnel) to exit 16E to Route 3 West, follow directions above.

4. Traveling South on the Garden State Parkway
Garden State Parkway South to exit 163 (Route 17). Follow Route 17 to Paterson Plank Road. Take Paterson Plank Road east to the Sports Complex.

Is it worth purchasing a Parking Pass, or would I be better off parking somewhere else?
