"Everything Is Just Bad About That Stadium" - Mekhi Becton Let It Be Known Just How Shitty MetLife Stadium Is

Lets go live to East Rutherford to get John Mara's live reaction to this quote:

Ooooh you got him mad, Mekhi! 

Now normally I wouldn't pay attention or give love to anything an Eagles player says, let alone mere days before they play the Giants. But I wanted to salute Mekhi Becton for calling out MetLife Stadium for exactly what it is: A shitty stadium. 

I'm sure Mekhi has his own reasons for hating it, which likely includes the turf that has destroyed countless players' bodies over the years. However as a fan, I wanted to cosign everything he said and add in my own gripes.

First of all, the stadium is a soulless mess. I'm not saying that Giants Stadium was a spectacle full of aura and mystique (not to be confused with the strippers from the Bronx in the 90s). But that's just how stadiums were back in the 80s. However, MetLife was built when stadiums actually started becoming spectacles or at the very least weren't cookie cutter clones of other chunks of concrete across the country. 

Jerry's World cost $1.3 billion to build and opened in 2009, which resulted in what was a modern marvel.

The Giants and Jets spent $1.6 billion on MetLife, which opened in 2010, and got basically a Giants Stadium replica with shitty modern air conditioning paneling on top.

They also removed the escalators that took you to each section of the stadium, including the Upper Tier escalator that seemed to stretch on forever, which I will always remember as The Escalator To Heaven.

If you wanted to have the privilege to buy season tickets in that shitty stadium, you had to bend over while the Maras and Johnsons made you pay out the dick for a PSL. If you just wanted to attend a single game, you now have to pay a bunch of money on the secondary market for a parking pass instead of just paying at the gate. In return for this lovely new feature, the experience leaving the stadium is just as shitty as it was back when LT was roaming the gridiron at Giants Stadium. Actually it's even worse if you try to Uber out of a game, which will result in no less than a three hour wait as you question if God is dead or ever even existed in the first place.

Oh yeah and addition to all this, the Giants have stunk playing at Met Life for most of its time being open. So I cosign everything Mekhi Becton did/didn't say about this shitty stadium and can't wait to have a fresh list of things I hate about it after I watch the Giants play against the Eagles this Sunday.

P.S. I cannot waiiiiiiit to see the carnage that ensues when MetLife hosts the World Cup and is taken over by a bunch of foreign fans that have no clue the hell that awaits them in the swamps of New Jersey.
