Who Wants to Attend the Draft?

by Bassett on April 23rd, 2008 at 10:14 am

With enough people on the blog these days, and the Jets in contention for some interesting developments on Saturday, who wants to go to the Draft?

Here’s the details from NFL.com

The NFL Draft is a free event; however seating is extremely limited.

The following procedure applies to Saturday only:

Wristbands to secure a ticket and entry into the Draft will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 26 on the 50th Street side of Radio City Music Hall. All persons wishing to attend the Draft must be present in order to receive a wristband. No exceptions will be made. Please remember that fans arrive very early. Fans who receive wristbands will then be able to line up beginning at 1:00 p.m. with doors opening at 1:45 p.m.

Fan entry will take place at the “Carriage Door Entrance” located on 50th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues.

So … who’s going to attend? Cruise Ship Director D-Rose (always fun to hang with) wants to attend, and is interested in leading the charge. If you want to go and cheer on the Jets first round pick, then leave us a comment (and make sure to put a legit email in that line as you leave a comment) or shoot us an email directly at thejetsblog@gmail.com. We’ll be sure to send out a note on tomorrow or Friday with more information on banding together.

Come on! Let’s be there in person to see (we hope good) history being made!!

  15. avatar George says:

    McFaddens?! Isn’t McFaddens a Bills bar? Come on, man.

  16. avatar Bassett says:

    gang, i chose McFadden’s just cause it was close to Grand Central and based on the name … nothing more sinister than that. :)

    I will be at mcfaddens and be sending on an email to folks who have replied so far … looks like a small group … maybe 10-15 at this point.
