Shakira Concert

Posted by Bill from Maspeth on Tue May 13 12:26:07 2025

Just kind of surprised that Academy hasn't said they would provide service to her upcoming Meadowlands concert in case of an engineers strike at NJT.

The Academy webpage boasts that the company began in 1930. The bus shown at that date is a GMC post-war model.

I was going to do it, but the Sports & Exposition Authority said that only NJT can provide service between SEC and MetLife doing pickup/dropoff. I would have had to pull into Lot L and let the bus sit until departure time. I was not going to go through bureaucracy for 1-2 days of service.
