At halftime of the Jets’ home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, several hundred men lined one of Giants Stadium’s two pedestrian ramps at Gate D. Three deep in some areas, they whistled and jumped up and down. Then they began an obscenity-laced chant, demanding that the few women in the gathering expose their breasts...

But the Gate D tradition at Giants Stadium apparently is unique to Jets games; the Gate D ramps are comparatively empty at Giants games. Perhaps forlorn Jets fans, who have rarely had a winning team to support, are seeking alternative entertainment on game days.

Sounds like Jets fans are dirt bags.

Does sound pretty pathetic, but not as pathetic as trying to get the police involved.

QFT.

I live in north jersey, I know from experience. There's obviously some good guys, but overall as fans they're terrible. Much worse than Giant fans.

I thought our team was bad. It sounds like the best thing about going to a Jets game is getting to see a womans breast.
