NJ Transit 🏈😡

I have been going back and forth to MetLife Stadium from Hoboken, NJ as media for the past 10 NY Jets & Giants home seasons, and it’s always been easy. Usually the trains don’t start running when I have to head to the stadium on game days, so I often take a ride share there and take the train home. I have always been able to purchase a single ride ticket in the app ahead of time and just walk onto the train. But now, if I don’t want to have to be forced to buy a round trip ticket through the app, I will have to walk to go buy a single ride ticket from a worker, and either way, then get into another line to be given a wristband to then walk all the way to the train and be allowed onto the train to go home after working a full game.

Today was only a preseason game that was not at capacity and many fans left early…I can’t even imagine what a busy regular season game will be like with fans staying until the very end for either team. There was no signage or organization. And they still checked for your tickets on the train, so make sure you don’t lose that receipt since the wristband wasn’t enough even though you can’t get that without buying a ticket. I personally didn’t experience the trip there and getting a wristband on the way, but I heard it was chaotic. 

I understand that they are trying to solve the problem of tickets not being checked on the way home, but why can’t you just show an activated ticket before being allowed onto the platform, or before boarding the train? There are so many flaws in this new system that will just add time to anyone’s return trip, and I don’t know how NJ Transit is allowed to only give a round trip/more expensive option in the app.
