On the way to the Super Bowl, NFL fans experienced delays and congestion when riding the train. After the game the fans were treated to the same congestion, and MetLife Stadium even asked fans to stay at the venue to let the congestion die down.

We ask that fans traveling by train please remain inside the stadium until further notice. We're loading a record number of riders.

“Please stay in the stadium if you are heading to the train station, due to congestion”. Caos all’andata, e al ritorno, alla stazione #fail
