The Jets were *not* at home/Shea in 1969 until Monday October 20 - they played the first five games on the road because the Mets were in the postseason. The Jets always took a backseat to the Mets during their time at Shea/the Mets had a clause in the stadium agreement giving them priority occupancy. The Mets were afraid of the grass field being torn up due to football, and as a result, the Jets couldn't play at home until the Mets season had finished - in 1969 the baseball season ended on Thursday October 16. |
