I had the benefit of the cheerleaders right in front of me all game. And they rotated as well so I got lots of variation  :hooray:

I was in the front row of the "normal" seats. There were two rows in front which were "Dream Seats" which you pay a fortune for and get free food and drink. But yeah really close to the pitch which was a first for me as I usually get seats higher up. The stadium was great and the atmosphere, especially early on, was unbelievable. The noise was very very loud. Not as big a choice food and drink wise as the baseball I went to earlier in the week though. And the weather was great too!!

A much better experience than my other NFL game in the States which was at Jacksonville back in 2004. But I am a bit of a good luck charm for home teams. I have now been to 13 sporting events in America and 10 have been home wins

I saw them twice at MSG in 2002 A loss to Washington 1-2 and a 3-2OT win against Phoenix. The Phoenix game was amazing 1-2 down with a minute to go. Equalised then won it in the first few mins of OT. I saw Messier, Richter, Leetch, Bure, Lindross, Some really big name players.

If you can get to MSG I would definitely recommend it. The atmosphere is fantastic and of course MSG itself is worth going to.

The Mets game I went to was in Sept 2009. The first season at Citi (I never managed to get to Shea) (Sorry Donnie) a 6-5 win against the Philthies. Which was nice!! I got to see Santana pitching too.
