Big M On Lockdown Super Bowl Week

Thinking about using your New Jersey Racing Commission license to access the Meadowlands Sports Complex during Super Bowl week? Forget it.

The entire complex will be on ‘lockdown’ for a full week prior to the February 2, 2014 Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium.

New Jersey Sports & Exposition Authority Vice President Jim Minish told the Authority Board on Thursday that the entire site will go on lockdown, starting Monday, January 27, 2014; it was reported by John Brennan in The Bergen Record.

“Everyone coming onto the site will have to have a credential with ID, and all deliveries will be sent to a certain location for screening,” Minish said.

According to Brennan’s article, Minish said that each of the buildings — the stadium, the Izod Center, the old and new Meadowlands Racetrack grandstands and the unfinished American Dream Meadowlands — will be shut down the night of Friday, January 31; only those with even higher-security credentials will be permitted to enter.
