Jets Rally for AFC Championship Game Announced

I posted this in another thread but it got lost. There will be a meet and greet w/ Dustin Keller, Jim Leonhard and Jay Feely in New Rochelle Thursday evening. PM me if interested and I'll give you all the details.

 

I was there for their "sendoff" to Houston to kick the season off. Better f***in' believe I'll be there for this one.

:jets:

 

How was the last "sendoff"? They have anything else going on there (ex players, etc.), or is it just a bunch of fans yelling at the bus? Curious if I should make the trip with the kids.

 

Well, they were expecting (from what I heard) a few thousand fans, but due to the weather predictions (downfall all morning), only about 400-500 people showed up. However, they had two (I think) big bubble playgrounds setup for the kids (like they did during many of their open-to-public practice sessions), plus the Jets shop tent, plus raffles, plus some D-list TV personalities, cheerleaders, etc.

Really, the best part was, since so few people went, the fans who showed up got to high-five about 25% of the team as they went down the fan "runway". Personally, I high-five'd Rex, Cotch, Clemens, Faneca, Leonhard, Greene, and Sanchez (among others):

I'm standing right behind the guy with the camera. Overall, great experience, I'll never forget it. :jets:

EDIT: P.S. Fireman Ed was also f***in' awesome. That man is my hero.

 

Thanks for the comments, I may try to get down there.

 

butt ugly?

You have a rather negative worldview.

 

Jason Derulo!

 

are there going to be any pre game rallies in indy? before or after the game? where will all jet fans be hanging out?

 

I'll be at rally at Times Square..its starts at 5:30 this time so no worrying about going back to work...any word who will be there ex-player wise?

 

C-Mart will be there.

 

Anybody know if it the rally TV? Or are they will prolly just show snippets of it on the news.

 

Nothing really on tv from last week, by I'd imagine channel 5 or some shit will stop by

 

There was some TV cameramen at the rally 9/12/09, so there must be some crews coming out for this.

 

I'll be there. If anyone wants to meet up, let me know.

 

Where is the training center? I would be coming from the north....80 to 287, etc.. it is off 24 isn't it ? anyone know what exit and directions from there ? Can't seem to find them on the site, and I think it is too new for my Garmin...

 

right near short hills mall

 

I live in Morristown, so I don't take 24. But here it is on Google Maps:

Thanks for posting that. I just looked up directions from my house (Brooklyn). Not so bad, it says about 50-60 minutes.

I may go with a friend of mine.

 

Cool...Thank you. I tried plugging that address in on googlemaps before but I couldn't get it to work for some reason... probably misspelled something
