MetLife Stadium

MetLife Stadium is a stadium for American football in East Rutherford that serves as a venue for National Football League games. The facility spreads across multiple levels with numerous concession stands, four large high-definition video screens, and various entertainment areas for spectators.

Construction began in September 2007 as a replacement for the previous stadium that stood on the same site. Completion followed in 2010 and the first game took place later that year.

The stadium serves as home to both the New York Giants and the New York Jets, drawing thousands of fans in their respective team colors on game days. The atmosphere shifts between each team's games, with crowds creating a lively mood through chants, cheers, and shared rituals.

Access is available through NJ Transit trains, Coach USA buses, or by car with parking options in the surrounding complex. On event days, arriving early helps avoid crowds and delays.

The stadium generates power through its Solar Ring system that integrates solar panels along the upper ring. This installation was recognized by the EPA as the most environmentally friendly in the NFL.
